We requested to book Maria's home with only 3 days notice. She graciously accepted and had the farmhouse perfectly ready for us. It looked just as in the pictures. The house and pool were very clean. No a/c but lots of windows and fans in every room that kept us comfortable. The swimming pool is beautifully set among the garden. The house was in a great location for driving to all the island's beaches and necessities in Mao; a car is definitely recommended. We loved the privacy and outdoor seating areas. The driveway is narrow, so I would recommend a compact car. Maria is very sweet and was available for any needs. We would definitely stay again.
