Summary: Trully a home away from home! The pictures didn't do it justice. The property is amazing with all the beautiful landscaping. It gives you a sense of privacy in a garden oasis. The house is stocked with EVERYTHING you could possibly need. Karen was amazing and very responsive to any questions or requests made. The location was perfect for us - close to the beaches, close to the airport and our local family, easy access to town. We would definitely stay here again. And we loved our morning visits with Simon & Garfunkel, the resident goats. Thanks Karen & Tim
