Mariana's place is a great place for a base camp. It's small (perfect for one or two people who really get along) but clean & has what you need: an awesome big step in shower, a micro wave, a small fridge & BBQ outside, coffee maker & some basic plates & cutlery. If you are there to go explore & be outside most of the time then it's perfect for this. She also provides chairs to take to the beach & snorkeling gear. It's a great central base for exploring the North shore
