About this property

The Cabin -self contained in the heart of Cowes

The cabin is set in its own jungle environment. Fully self contained.
Bedroom has a double bed. Living area with fold out sofa bed if needed. Table and chairs, Flatscreen TV.
Kitchen has fridge, sinks, stove, microwave, all utensils. Bathroom has shower and toilet.
Outside has a peaceful deck with seating area surrounded with jungle, palms, ferns etc.

Many birds live on the property. Small ringtail possums may greet you as well. Very quiet considering being right in town, minutes walking to shops, restaurants, etc. and pier. It is nestled behind the larger Guest house "Sanantone" as listed on this site. Very safe and private. People say " a piece of Paradise in the midst of chaos "

Economic stay
Overall it’s a good stay, but there was a discrepancy in online listing. After made payment online for whole family,Roger requested us to pay $100 for my children. This made me surprise. Eventually I had paid this amount.

Hidden Gem
Almost 5 stars, it doesn’t have air conditioning so watch out for summer time.

Pleasantly different
Nice clean, self-contained cabin, but would be better for two rather than four occupants. Pull out sofa bed is, I suppose, expectedly uncomfortable, and the double size bed was a bit small for my 6'4" son, but we made do.

Great little place close to town
The property is a really cute little guest home, it has plenty of privacy with lots of trees, plants bushes etc, surrounding the house. Perfect size for a couple to stay in, they provided everything you may need and had great communication. The location is perfect, only a 10 minute walk into the Main Street and a short drive from all tourist attractions. Definitely recommend.
