Tracy’s had a beautiful look to it, reminding us of paradise, and the pictures are accurate. Overall, it was a good place to stay!
Tracy puts a lot of thought into making her place a ‘home-away-from-home,’ and it shows. She includes all the necessities and some great amenities! It has everything that you really need. Sunscreen, bug spray, soaps? She’s got it! She even has lawn chairs and yoga mats if that is something you want to use, and a ton of other stuff too. She has really tried to think of everything. There are even washers and dryers on the premises that have reasonable operating hours; however, we’d recommend doing it in the daylight because once it’s dark, the path there is unlit so you need to be more careful.
In terms of location, it’s an amazing one! It’s close to many amazing things like snorkeling areas, beaches (there’s one literally right across the street), wonderful food places (some of our favorites are just a few minutes down the road), and more! She also provided a useful binder of information and recommendations. While some things were outdated (i.e., the menus were outdated and a listed restaurant was closed), it was still ultimately helpful.
Parking was easy and finding a space wasn’t a problem. Also, Tracy is very responsive by AirBnb and gave us several recommendations, though we didn’t get to meet or talk to her in person as she isn’t on site.
We did drop one star due to a few things. First, the bed is extremely soft: you literally sink into it and it’s hard to move. It ended up making us feel stiff in the mornings, and my wife got lower back pain. The couch would have been a better option to sleep on for her. Even I found it to be too much, and I prefer soft beds. Second, the floor was a little dirty; it left my white socks gray after walking around for a bit. Not a big deal, but something to consider for those who like to walk around barefoot. Third, the AC unit was inconsistent and would sometimes stop working and need to be turned off and on again to get it to work. And finally, keep in mind that unlike other AirBnb’s, you have to strip the bed and take out the trash yourself rather than having them do it.
But those things did not really take away from our enjoyment of the place; overall, it was a good and convenient location to stay at!
