Colleen lived up to her reputation as a Superhost with rapid responses; thoughtful touches; and clear instructions on everything related to the house and local area. She also left some breakfast items which made our first morning so much easier and a bottle of wine which we enjoyed in her cozy kitchen. We didn't have time to cook, but the kitchen had everything you'd need if you did. Colleen anticipates guests needs and makes it easy to find whatever you need.
The house is in a great location on a safe, tree-lined side street. It's perfectly appointed with comfortable furniture; beautiful pottery displays; lots of natural light; and an abundance of thriving plants that made it a peaceful retreat after arduous travels. It feels like you're staying at a good friend's house while they are away. We would definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.
Colleen has numerous recommendations for restaurants. We tried Cafe Luna for brunch and enjoyed dining al fresco.
