I loved staying at Marians house. It looks good, smells good and feels good. I had everything i needed for an extended stay and everything functioned well. To be more precise:
Looks good: the lush garden, the fab artwork and carefully curated collectibles were sources of delight.
Smells good: lots of open windows and fans meant the fresh, salt-sea air was available to breathe deeply
Felt good: this place is tranquil and cool throughout the summer day. Everything was comfortable: beds lounge etc.
The location, within walking distance to swimming places, was just right for me.
Finally, the lush, tranquil front garden was complemented by a well tended market type garden in the back from which I collected fresh herbs daily.
The house was clean and well presented and I'd happily stay again.
