Marylove is a wonderful hostess. She made us feel very comfortable and was very detail oriented and responsive whenever we had any questions. The cottage and amenities were just as described and was very cozy and had nice decor. She was easily accessible,but gave you space and privacy. Her nice outdoor back patio is very beautiful and relaxing as well. Neighborhood is less than a mile from the ocean and has a tropical feel and relatively close to the Volcanoes National Park. We love this park, so it was a very nice location for us. The nearest town for groceries & restaurant is about a 10 miles away, so would recommend buying some groceries before your arrival. Would also recommend aggressive containment of food/crumbs and disposal of garbage, as this can lead to unwanted ant friends and possibly other insect friends (it's the tropics!). Would definitely recommend a stay at this lovely cottage with Marylove.
