We had a host cancel on us the night before we were supposed to arrive. We reached out to Ed and explained the situation. He was very accommodating and quick to respond. He gave us very clear instructions to make our arrival go very smooth. When we met him in person he very friendly and helpful regarding the area. We absolutely loved the house and the grounds. The house was beautiful, clean, spacious ,and they even provided coffee, teas, champagne, and other small "treats". The bed was super comfortable! The area around the house was beautiful gardens where we enjoyed spotting little lizards, hummingbirds, and many other types of birds. There were 3 ducks and 2 chickens who also shared the gardens with us. One of our favorite things was the dog, Hazel, who made us feel very much at home. We would definitely recommend this listing and would love to stay here again if ever in the area. We would also recommend the whale city cafe about 3-4 miles away for meals, coffee, or baked goods.
