I knew this was the right place for me the instant I opened the door. And as I walked in and thru the place a wide smile came over my face. This was going to be perfect for me...and it was. The kitchen had plenty of room to move but more importantly for me the tools (pots, pans, utensils, spices, etc) to actually get your meal cooked! 'Cause, oh boy.. sadly I've had too many rentals that had the stove but nothing else.. even the one I'm in now on Kauai, not even a sharp knife here (!) and that always irritates me. Sigh.. That kitchen rocked. I'm not a gourmet chef, I just needed to stay alive...prepare my simple meals. The fridge was icy cold too.
I believe a reason it felt so homey was all the small or oddball things I might have been looking for (tape, glue, scissors, a flashlight, a sharpie, a q-tip, ) were all there. I think there was even some suntan lotion on the desk. The love of prior guests explains a bit of it...of why you'd find yourself also leaving something behind.. for the next someone, to pay it forward.
The bed was nice and comfy for me! I slept really well. The ceiling fans and the trade winds made a/c unnecessary but there is a unit in the living room wall. Oh, and I even got lucky enough to park under this great big shade tree..right in front of my place
It's definitely the little things
