This is a lovely house that does not feel at all like a rented place, but more like a home away from home.
The house was spotless clean and there is everything that one might need, including all the kitchen stuff, salts, spices, band aids, beach things like fins and boards and so on...
The view from the balcony is perfect - you can see and hear the ocean. This is where we had all of our meals and watched the sun every evening come down from a cloud and plunge into the ocean.
When we were reserving the place we were a bit concerned that it did not have an air-conditioning, but turned out that it was absolutely not needed. There are windows all around and ceiling fans and it feels perfect inside.
There is a very nice beach down the street that you can either drive or walk to. Walking up is a great exercise, but may be too tough for some, but locals of all ages of course do it daily :)
When we drove there, we always were able to find a place to park. There are usually no more than 2-3 cars there and many times were were at the beach alone.
I saw in some reviews that some people didn't think it's a good beach for swimming, but we found that it was the best beach that we experienced for both swimming and snorkeling, though it is deep so you need to know how to swim. There is no sand, which makes the water super clear, and there are reefs with a LOT of different fish. We tried snorkeling at other places, including the famous Captain Cook monument and found that we prefer snorkeling at our own beach down by Nanette's house, because you see all the same fish but without being crowded by a million snorkelers, bumping your head into kayaks and other people and smelling gas from big boats. Just note that the pebbles on the beach may be hard on your feet so wear water shoes, or any other shoes.
The only thing you need to be aware of is that the driveway to the house as well as the street that takes you to the house and down to the beach is extremely steep, so you absolutely need to have an ALL WHEEL DRIVE car, AND it cannot be a huge car, because you will need to do a turn around at the top of the driveway by the house and the space is very tight. My husband did manage to do it in Ford Flex, but it was very hard and I had to stand outside and conduct the turn, telling him how many millimeters are left to the wall. So I would definitely recommend a smaller car.
Also, this house is in a perfect little neighborhood, where people just live and rest - there are no restaurants or shops nearby. If you want a busy night life, this is not the place you want.
But if you want to be away from the crowds, in a picture perfect house with a perfect view - I absolutely recommend this place.
