Rita was SUCH a lovely, gracious host - wine, cheese, crackers, bottled water waiting for us. She let us stay past check out time, encouraging a trip to the beach. The cottage is super cute - it's a studio - and the garden backyard is HUGE, there are flowering plants and loquat trees everywhere, very much a sit-still-and-enjoy place. It's a short drive (or a healthy walk) to the beach. And there's a massage chair, which was a surprise bonus after the flight down.
