Sivans place was well decorated, kitchen essentials included, and nice toiletries. Sivan and her significant other greeted us as we walked in the gate doors as they were doing laundry in the laundry room located next to the cottage. They were friendly and welcoming. My husband and I had a great time exploring the bay and the only two things I would highly suggest to make the stay better is AC, it was really hot during the day even with the ceiling fan and mobile fan on. You can not leave the doors open for fresh air since bugs might get in. A tv would be nice after a long day of exploring, lay back out your feet up and and enjoy a movie. Other than that we enjoyed ourselves.
