Our gracious and kind host welcomed us in so many lovely ways...to name a few: with thorough directions, a hospitable in-person introduction, a bouquet of daffodils on the desk, fresh eggs & bread in the kitchen.
The description & photos were quite accurate, though in-person, it's even more breath-taking than words or snapshots can say. Overlooking the canyon and the Pacific Ocean, and far from traffic & commotion, this may have been one of the most peaceful and astonishing places I've ever visited.
And while the exterior is serene and magnificent, the interior of the villa offers a charm & quietude all its own. It is spacious, has an earthy aesthetic & is light-fulled...everything is clean, cozy, and with sweet signs of forethought (from fresh soaps to varied & fabulous reading materials, pizza delivery phone numbers & suggestions for nearby hikes).
The villa is complete with an area for working, dining, resting, cooking, bathing & doing laundry.
A landline and wi-fi make the lack of cell reception an easy adjustment.
The drive up is an experience in itself--lots of turns amidst the ascent; good to be prepared to take it slowly. Worth the drive!
Overall, a truly wonderful place that delighted all of our senses and gave us a really nourishing recess.
This was our first airbnb experience; from the host to the property itself, every aspect exceeded our expectations.
