I want to say "ditto" to everything everyone else said about Sara -- but that's not enough. All of it is absolutely true...Sara put so much thought into every detail of the home and our stay from the treats in the fridge to the fresh flowers on the counter to the ease and flexibility of check-in and check-out to... well, it is a long list. We had a beautiful 48 hours and even my 18-year old nephew couldn't stop "ooohing" and "aweing". Our dogs felt right at home and we could tell right away Sara was a "dog person". Everything was perfect and having so many open spaces to read or eat or play games -- and surrounded by beautiful gardens -- left us feeling relaxed and at home. I've stayed at airbnbs that are so sterile all you want to do is leave the place and do something else. But Magnolia, well, we never wanted to leave. Still, the location is so perfect we were able to easily walk to the beach with our pups, go for a bike ride...you can't beat it.
Oh, being a foodie, I was floored by the kitchen. We made almost all our own meals and the kitchen was so well stocked and organized that even that was easy. We grilled oysters on the BBQ while sitting at yet another outdoor table sipping wine and then heading into the hot tub (at least six times while we were there).
We would have loved to stay longer and we will definitely be back. If I could give ten stars, I would.
Thank you, Sara, for a fab stay!!!
