This is a decent space, very clean, and stylish. Cliff is a very hospitable host and will offer you any help he can give.
Details:

Convenient: 5 mins walk to the beach, 10 to stores
Cooking: YOU CAN DEFINITELY COOK. There is an outdoor kitchen- air fryer, small burner and sink to wash dishes, bench to sit at. Inside, there is a mini fridge, microwave and kettle. Plenty of cutlery. You can ask for anything you need. Cliff is very accommodating.
Indoors: Wonderful blend of modern and old school furniture. Air con works great. Windows have fly screens so can bring cool breeze inside. It's never too hot .
Privacy: quite private, total silence at night from 6pm. It is a small house on the back of a property so quite close to another house both front and back. As it's quiet, any daytime noise carries e.g, the neighbors doing the occasional project. Not the space to meditate in but the beach is 5mins away and if you plan to be out between 9-4 exploring, you will never notice this.
