Meli's place is exactly as advertised. Beautiful place, great location, easy to find. Unfortunately Meli had to take a last minute trip, so we never meet her. We had only one discomfort: due to loose screens on the windows, mosquitos were prolific as we tried to sleep. Nothing extra insect repellant wouldn't take care of. This might be a seasonal problem--we were there in mid-late July. Even though we never got to meet her, we felt we got a sense of who Meli was by her beautiful art.
