This AirBnb experience by far exceeded my expectations. Yes, the house is great, the Turtle Room spacious and well-equipped, the location divine. But it was the human warmth and connection that made all the difference. I arrived for a 5 day solo trip with no itinerary, hoping to glean some tips from friendly locals who might steer me to some less touristy gems of the area. Well, ask and ye shall receive! Every morning, Riaan and his wonderful mom, Cathy, would fill my itinerary to the brim! I had a phenomenal time visiting places (gorgeous streets, local hole in the wall fish shops and bakeries, glorious beaches) I would never have found in the guide books. I left with a heart (and camera) full of memories, 100% planning to come back and head straight for this big, warm house with its lovely and generous inhabitants.
Oh, and the outdoor shower! Hello!
