Just as we got to the island, the powerplant decided to go ahead and blow itself up Al Qaeda style.... three days without power over the whole island ensued...
nevertheless, Leanne was there, to help us out with candles for the dark nights. We had a beautiful stay, chatting with her and - let's not forget - Trixie, the cutest dog in the world. The house is truly sensational, if you want to be (a little bit) off the beaten track and enjoy the island without tourists, this is the place to be!!! As the island is quite small, scooters are enough to get around, and you're never more than half an hour away from some very unique experiences. But coming home to Mesa Gonia was a truly unique experience, the quiet and peace with everything this wonderful island has to offer within reach, being able to enjoy a glass of wine on the terrace overlooking where the "other poor tourists" were staying, grinning at each other and toasting to being able to stay in this place, it was an absolute marvel!!!! The studio is lovely, nothing was exagerated. We knew about the lack of privacy if you choose you stay there with children (no doors, bathroom accessible only through the main bedroom), but still it was a wonderfull experience!! Thank you so much, Leanne, for your kindness and good spirits, we will be sure to visit you again, the children are missing Trixie already (they want to adopt her!)
