When I arrived, Manuela gave me a quick tour of the well-furnished suite and I was left to discover a few local treats she'd left for us. Her decorative touches have made it a cozy place to base a longer visit – we could easily have stayed for a stretch.

The kitchen is fully stocked and the gas stove and convection oven are possibly the best I've ever cooked on. Everything there and throughout the space feels like a well put-together home.
