Joan is a great host. He lives right next-door, monitors WhatsApp closely and will run over promptly if there is a problem. (I had a minor problem on my first morning: no hot water. He was over checking out the situation within 5 minutes of my reporting it and he had it repaired the same afternoon. And he let me use his shower in the meantime! Not an ideal situation, but we made the best of it.) The house itself is beautiful and spacious and equipped with all necessary amenities. The bedroom is on the ground level fronting the street, so it's not particularly conducive to keeping the shutters open. But the kitchen/dining room at the back and the living area upstairs are bright and open and overlook the pool. The house collects rainwater into a well at the back of the kitchen. You'll likely be surprised (or awakened) the first time you hear it, but afterwards you'll hopefully fall in love with it as I did. (It rained a lot while I was there.) All the warnings about the narrow streets and impossible corners are indeed true. Don't take the upgrade to the BMW they offer at the rental car counter in the airport...stick with the smallest car possible! Overall, the house is beautiful and historic, the town is interesting and has decent restaurant options and is well-located for exploring the south and east of the island, and the host is great!
