We didn't get to meet Mohamed and Patricia in person - however they were very helpful and friendly over email. We did have the pleasure of meeting Virginia (their wonderful housekeeper who even let us borrow a boogie board and a hiking book!). The cottage has wonderful views - out one window is tropical lushness and even a mini-waterfall when it rains and you can see the ocean from the lanai. A very cute, personable cat and the resident turkey make occasional visits :) It was a very pleasant stay - I would definitely recommend!
