Kristina was as honest as they come these days. We communicated with her for a week or so before booking. She was always willing to answer any questions we had concerning her accommodations, any sights to see, places to shop and what we could expect.

My wife and I stayed here for 7 days in February. We absolutely loved the location and the quaint little studio apartment. There were markets where we could buy fresh local produce and fish within a twenty/thirty minute drive. We truly enjoyed the ability to cook for ourselves and were able to beat our food budget which allowed us to play harder and see more.

In the area where she lives, they depend on water rationing using a water catchment system for their water source. This means no long hot showers if in a drought and you will need to buy your own drinking water. We were able to do this at the grocery store where the produce was for $.30 a gallon (with your own jug) from a water machine. She did start us off with a large bottle and this was enough for the first night, my coffee, and the wife’s tea the next morning.

There is a beautiful little black pebble beach below the property. If you are in good shape you could walk there and back, however, if your shape is as mine is rolling would be easier, but coming back up the mountain would not be fun. We did drive down several times and take photos and just enjoyed the view. Most of the time, we were there under a high surf warning and did not try to snorkel or play in the water, but do understand that if the conditions are right there may not be a more stunning place to snorkel on the island!

If you are looking for a 5 star B&B right on the beach this is not it, but she does not advertise it to be. There was a full kitchen that included a full sized fridge, gas stove, and microwave. We enjoyed most of our meals on the cement patio just outside our sliding door. The view is a beautiful ocean scene! The host and her staff (four legged kind) are very friendly.

We hope to revisit again next year if not sooner!

Thanks Kristina!
