Great place, with commanding views of the beach and sea in the distance, from high on a hill. The decor is spartan, giving the place a nicely spacious feel, which is no lie, it really is spacious. This is a wonderful home away from home, lovingly and sturdily built by the host, surrounded by tropical gardens, with many rooms in which to stay and play.
But at the time of review, the place feels a little unfinished, about two decades later. It would probably benefit from curtains/blinds (there is one in the bathroom and toilet), and replacement or installation of half the insect screens, which are decaying or missing, meaning quite a few of the windows and wonderful sliding doors can't really be opened or kept open. The composting toilet is outside, and great for the environment, but is a little stinky, and my wife discovered during her *ahem* visit, that the top of the pipe does not seal against the seat box! We lol about it now. Scott has plans to change it onto the septic tank system, which will probably be soon.
It's a great place, really - Scott walked us around and gave us fruits from the surrounding trees and vines: sweet and tasty passionfruits, pomegranates and cherries we joyfully ate all week after coming home.
