Janine is a delightful host!! Quick responses. Very helpful.
The apartment is a gorgeous little second story coach house at the back of the property. We arrived after sunset and Janine came out to the street to help us find our way back to the parking spot.
Walking through the gate you enter a foliage filled courtyard with a stairway to the balcony that runs the length of your lodging. Walking past the inviting balcony cafe table and chairs, you enter through double french doors. The beamed cathedral ceiling makes the open living/dining/kitchen area feel huge!! Three sofas in the living area convert to twin beds easily sleeping three. The kitchen has a great assortment of pots and pans with a gas range and full size refrigerator with a freezer (ready with ice cubes!). A special touch, Janine had a bowl of lemons on the dining table which, it turns out the next morning in the daylight, are fresh from the lemon tree growing arms length away on the other side of the balcony railing from the cafe table!!!
The bedroom is very comfortable with a firm queen size bed and vintage dresser which has beautiful scrollwork and decorative feet on which I somehow managed to stub my toe during the night! The bedroom also has double french doors opening onto the balcony which, on a warm afternoon, are a blessing for some fresh air.
My two co-travelers and I made our dinners and breakfasts with ease. Fellow travelers or Janine have provisioned the place with olive oil, rice, salt, pepper, napkins paper towels and a variety of sundries. One warning, the hot water is HOT...so turn on some cold under. On the bright side, the dishes get sparkling clean!!!
The location is fantastic, easy to get to and the fresh lemons are worth the visit on their own. I definitely plan to be back.
