Peaceful, tranquil and a much or as little interaction with host as you like. I stayed in the Angel room, with a nice crossbreeze, bathroom right next door, and hot tea served before bed. Eugene, a young caretaker, is an excellent artist. His enchanting guache and watercolor pieces line the living room wall, and he has staked claim to a portion of the lanai for his Studio. .The ocean is just across the street! there's a fruit stand 1/4 mi So of the property. sparse cell service, but wifi was great. I was able to stream Hulu with no problem. Love this place!!
