The view from this space was stunning. We loved sitting on the patio and watching the tide, the ships, and the variety of water activities like kite surfing, sailing club, and paddle-boarding. We even saw a couple of container ships go through. This area of town is residential on the hill, and pretty busy below with road and ocean traffic. It's within walking distance of both the port and the beach. The garden was beautiful. Even in fall, Barbara had flowers blooming everywhere.
The apartment was roomy. We liked the layout with the sitting room first (ocean view), then kitchen, then bathroom, then bedroom, all just heading toward the back. We loved the collection of books and the artwork. This is an older home so the flooring and appliances seemed a bit dated. Our hosts provided bread, coffee, milk, tinned fruit, and ripe tomatoes!
Barbara and Gordon were very friendly and popped in often to check on us. They gave us great tips on hikes, things to do on a rainy day, and souvenir shopping. Really friendly folks.
