I am writing this review with a grateful heart. Emiko and Billy are the best hosts you can ever ask for. They are incredibly considerate, thoughtful, patient, kind and helpful.
Once you arrive, you’ll find the unit is stocked up with literally everything you need for a longer stay. Emiko prepares all essentials from shampoo and body wash to toilet paper, from kitchen towel to lunch boxes….you name it. You can even find sunscreens, umbrella and hair curler wand!
The kitchen is fully equipped with all sorts of cooking supplies. I was able to feed a family of 5 without any problem at all. When I inquired about whether I should bring instant pot, although it wasn’t an item she listed on her page, Emiko managed to get me an instant pot so I wouldn’t need to pack it in my luggage! How incredible is that! They just go beyond and above to help and meet your needs. When She heard that we needed kids stools, beach toys and life jackets, in less than an hour, she and her husband were there outside of the door with handful of the things ready for us to use!
The unit itself is situated in an unbeatable locations. Each unit is part of a three-story apartment building with security gates, which we found very safe and secure. My kids loved the time there and there first reason is that everyday we can just walk out of the room and be able to explore. It gives us access to all sorts of activities, markets and dining/shopping. There is nothing better than that! We also enjoyed walking to the library and the zoo which were both within 15 minutes.
We had a wonderful time during our month-long stay. It give us an opportunity to experience a local style living which is really unique and unforgettable. Next time if we come again we would hope to book the two bedrooms unit in the same building.
