Carolyn is an excellent host. She is responsive, careful, and caring. She has put a lot of thought into her space and making it as comfortable as possible. She left a lovely welcome basket for us that we really appreciated, as well as a binder full of information about the area and house.
This next section of the review is meant for the families out there who are traveling with younger kiddos. First off, room darkening shades AND curtains in both rooms! Comfy twin beds! Toys, puzzles, and games! It’s all wonderful! Beach toys and chairs, beach towels… great quality.
There is not much room for anything but maneuvering around furniture in the house, and we felt kind of on top of one another. The home is located on a major road in PG, but it felt safe and quiet to us, so road noise isn’t an issue in our opinion.
Gripes? The pillows were either so soft they flattened and had to be folded in half, or firm and flat. All the other linens were great quality. We also always try to leave our hosts feeling happy to have had us, and so we tend to try to give the cleaning crew a head start on cleaning up. Carolyn has a pretty thorough (albeit short) check list of things to do for check out, and we found that a little stressful, particularly since there is a cleaning fee involved. However, I can also play devil’s advocate and say that her thoroughness in how she desires her guests to care for the home is probably why she can offer such a clean space.
