‘Sanctuary in the Pocket’ is just as you see in the photos, if not better. I spent nearly two weeks here over Christmas 2015, & it was perfectly situated to explore the whole north coast area. Beaches, cafes and shopping are a picturesque ten minute drive away, or you can grab your supplies & stay put in a world away from civilization.
The property is beautifully maintained, with a wonderful attention to detail. It has an appropriate Balinese feel - timber & neutrals punctuated with fresh green & yellow accents. The ‘sanctuary’ contains quality furnishings & fittings – it all very quickly feels like home. The added bonus of internet, including Netflix & BOSE speakers for viewing or music enables you to really kick-back & relax.
It was bliss to open up the sliding doors in the morning & listen to the cows, birds & the soft cicada buzz, while watching the filtered sunlight warm up the beautiful garden view from the large deck.
It was an absolute pleasure to meet Jonathon & Susie – so thoughtful, they made me feel very welcome in their little slice of paradise (thanks guys!), & provided lots of information about surrounding towns to visit/things to do. Communication was always prompt and easy, all my questions were more than answered & if I needed anything they weren’t far away. I even got a very friendly greeting when I drove in from ‘Bella’ & “Jack’, their two lovely dogs. I am already planning my next visit later this year.
