Genevieve and Dan's place is exactly as described. There we had all the calm, peacefulness and isolation we were looking for. Nevertheless coffee shop, grocery and gas station are only 2min away by car and it's very local! There is so much around to explore eg. green sand beach, black sand beaches, volcanoes, etc. Dan - who was around during our stay - is really delightful. For what you paid I highly recommend :)
