the house itself was beautiful, unique and most of all SERENE. Nature surrounded the property and the beach neighborhood was a delight. On top of all that Michael was a remarkable host, made me and my husband feel welcomed and cared for. He is someone you just want to hang out with and be friends with who happens to be a phenomenal home designer and host. I cannot say enough how serene and peaceful his place was. Everything from the beautiful garden, yard, house, rooms, design and outdoor shower! I highly recommend!
