This is a very sunny and bright place. The front of the house looks like it came straight out of a "modern living" magazine; in fact, the entire house appears to be something featured in such a publication.

The room, itself, though not large, felt roomy and spacious due to the furniture selection and huge sliding glass door that over looked a green landscape with little rubber duckies chilling by the saltwater pool. I felt as if I were outside with the comfort of the indoors and cool place to lie down, where I barely had to use the ceiling fan because the temperature and I got along great. The skylight in the bathroom and dual rain-like shower heads are a real treat. I was spoiled by all of the natural light and none of the heat, and ample closet space to stash all of the clothes that I had taken that I didn't need.

I actually have a hard time getting a full night's sleep in places other than my own home, but I did just that and more amidst the gentle purring of the geothermal wall system and overall peacefulness of the residence. At least I did when I wasn't swooning over Jamie Bamber on Law and Order UK.

And Susanna is a very sweet lady and great host, easy to converse with, thorough with any explanations concerning the room and residence, and readily able to give suggestions on neat neighborhood eats, treats, and shops, but she is also very respectful of one's privacy and wish to "hide" (it was my staycation).

In the case that I need to run away from life without running too far, I will definitely request to stay here again.
