This place is unique, located in a magical and wild forest, we were greated with peacocks and chickens every morning. The tile work and unique design of the house are simply beautiful. We enjoyed the sound of the rain, frogs and nature. My 6 years old and i had a good time walking on the land and discovering the birds. We saw a baby pig. One night, we needed assistance with the gas stove, Mara was quick to respond and came to fix the issue.
In terms of our family needs ( the posting does mention it is not ideal for young kids) i did not expect the kitchen to be this minimal, you will in fact find only the basics ( few pots and pans, utensils and plates), but no coffee makers or toaster or bbq. I enjoy having my coffee in the morning and quick breakfast with the kids. In terms of cleanliness, for a house that is open to the forest, it is very well maintained. I would have liked to have the bathroom area and the loft’s floor cleaner, especially with young kids that touch everything. Also we left bananas out on the counter one night and the banana was eaten. We forgot one banana in our backpack the other night, and found a hole in our back pack the next day, with a missing piece of banana. We have not met this banana lover « friend » though. Just put all food in the fridge, you are in the forest! The listing is very accurate and this place has a good value! Although it did not completely met my needs and expectations, we did find comfort and peace in the cabin. Mahalo Mara
