The carriage house was absolutely lovey! I stayed with my husband and 5yr old daughter and it was perfect for us. Our host was responsive and accommodating. The house was clean and organized, and my personal favourite was the bedding, it felt like we were staying a good fiends place. Thanks to our host for a wonderful and memorable stay.

If you want a quiet comfortable place to stay away from the crowds and the ability to prepare your own meals then this is it. Immaculately clean and everything provided is quality. A perfect central island location to access all the sights. We loved it here! 😊
