Our stay with Alessandro was just lovely! Everything as promised: shared bathroom but super clean and we never even ran into anyone there, so that was not an issue at all. Very nice and clean kitchen and common area as well as a beautiful terrace / garden and even a bbq. Alessandro was waiting for us outside the house when we arrived, made sure he showed us everything and told us the best activities and surf school in town. There's also more than enough info material in the common room. The walk up and down the hill to get to the lake and back is a bit of a challenge but rewarded with a stunning view (in our experience about 20 min walk to get down to the lake, 25 min to get back, about 30 min walk to Shaka surf center). A parking lot is right in front of the house (free of charge). I'd come back anytime
