For those of you not sure about this booking, let me tell you why I gave it a well rounded five stars and a standing ovation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
1- the host
I wasn’t in contact with Maria much as my phone was having issues, but I did call Bernie for help and he was amazing to me from the first convo to the last. He was ever present to answer questions and give all new guests a tour of the property. There was an abundance of excursion knowledge available through him. He even came to my rescue when I locked my keys in the trunk and helped me solve the issue. Thank you Bernie! You really made this trip special.
2- location
It’s a bit tricky at first to find but you shouldn’t have any issues as Bernie is a great guide. I loved how close everything was- countless beaches, a food land grocery store, pillbox hike, and fresh produce stands and food trucks. There was a little town not far off too with restaurants, excursions, shopping and bakeries.
3- the space
Fist things first, this is a shared space. I stayed in the dorms- at the time the guests were very mixed and short term so in my room there were two guys and two girls. I never had any issues with anyone, although if you prefer to close your door to the world when your ready to sleep this might not be the best option for you. I personally loved it. I met people from all over the world and made some new friends. The kitchen was big and great for cooking and socializing. There was an abundance of tools, seasonings and kitchenware. I felt very at home. My favorite part was the outdoor dining area where you could sit peacefully by yourself or join a large table of travelers and trade stories and games. My first two nights were so fun as I stayed up late playing cards with new friends.
There was parking, laundry, snorkels and surfboards, hammocks and outdoor showers. I loved every moment of this stay, and if you are ok with sharing your space and food and making new friends…I think you will too.
Mahalo Bernie and Maria for a pleasant and unforgettable time in paradise.🌸🌅🏄‍♀️🐢
