I was very pleased with our experience and stay in this guesthouse! Although near the main home, it was very private and quiet. We had a private entrance and getting in/out was very easy with the keypad. The place itself is very beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed, and more. During our stay (end of Dec), it was a bit humid so having AC in the bedroom was ideal. The placement of the AC in the bedroom window blows directly into the living room so that helped keep the entire place cool and comfortable. It’s only a few mins walk to a private/local beach, however, there are several beaches only a short drive away. We were able to “beach hop” within 5-15 mins nearby; there is literally a beach on every block. Also, it’s only a 1-3 min drive to restaurants/food trucks so that was a bonus. Ultimately, this is the perfect place for anyone exploring the North Shore area. I will definitely be staying here again for my next trip.
