We have traveled and stayed at many places. Book this place. You will not be disappointed. This house is very special and it was hard to leave. It is the best airbnb I have ever stayed at and we will absolutely look to stay here when we are back on island!
The location is perfect for enjoying all of Captain Cook and beyond. It's quiet back on a private road, and up high enough for fabulous sunsets and whale watching in the bay but also close enough to the bottom of the road you can be to the bay in about 5 minutes. The guest house is one of several structures on Joe and Tammy's property and is situated between a barn/horse enclosure and the main house. The property is a working property in that there are gardeners, trades folks, etc who may come and go and drive around when needed, so it's not 100% private (just keep that in mind if you have day time naked hot tubbing on the mind!).
As a side note: Captain Cook as very poor cell service (we weren't able to make a single call or txt via ATT cell) which was not an issue for us, just keep it in mind since there isn't a house phone you will want to make your calls from the road, higher up. The high speed internet at the house was perfect and we mostly Skyped and facetimed.
I don't know where Joe and Tammy got their beds but you will LOVE them. They are soft yet firm and easy to sleep in. We all slept very very well here. All the linens and pillows and blankets were luxurious and delightful to sleep in. In fact, the entire house was very well stocked with high end towels and products from bathroom to kitchen. The beach towels and all the beach gear were AWESOME! You can just rent the house and not have to rent anything else while you are there.
It is a very generous property with very generous hosts. Tammy and Joe were responsive to our every request and accommodated us constantly. You will be in very good hands with them - they are there if you need them and otherwise give you space.
There are animals on the property! 2 sweet dogs and a very adorable cat - there are also 5 miniature ponies (they don't roam but the dogs and cat do) - It was wonderful to come home from our day and be greeted by the wagging tails and happy purrs. The hot tub over looks the barn area on one side and the water view on the other so you can watch ponies or whales - lots of options! Last note - if you are like me and excited to get into K-Bay know you need a PERMIT to launch anything. I brought my paddle board all the way from Philly but was never able to launch, so do get your permit ahead of time or go out with a tour group. Many thanks for hosting us Joe and Tammy!!!!!! - Liz and Jill
