How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. Firstly the neighborhood and street are beautiful and Carolyn’s and Barry’s home is especially charming with beautiful landscaping and lovely palm trees surrounding it. Access to the beach and shopping couldn’t be easier all within 10 minutes by car and could easily be walked if you are athletically inclined. Their home is located on a well lit and quiet residential street and I wouldn’t hesitate to enjoy a walk after dark. The private entry to the attached cottage is through a charming wrought iron gate on the side of their home providing total privacy. The interior has a number of decorative touches reflecting Carolyn’s eclectic taste. Charming and cozy without being over done where you can feel equally at home relaxing and reading a book as going to the beach. Carolyn Angel was an amazing host, with a great sense of humor who thoughtfully put two ice cold beers in the fridge along with frozen mugs that couldn’t have been more appreciated after a long day of traveling. In addition she included a little basket of treats and tea. Barry is also extremely personable and stopped over the following day with fresh coconut water directly off their trees! What was such a pleasant surprise was that Carolyn Angel had thought of every little amenity including beach chairs, suntan lotion and beautiful high quality beach towels. Even fluffy his and hers robes in the closet! Although the bed is not large it has a comfortable mattress and I slept very well on it despite being 6”4.
In a perfect world every AirBnB would be as nice and as thoughtfully appointed as Carolyn Angels & Barry’s Cottage. I can’t wait to get back and couldn’t recommend it more highly!
