Arcanum was a great host. Super friendly and has lots of info on spots on the island to check out. The space is super peaceful and chill. Would love to try out the treehouse next time. It was a little further back in so if you are going for a little more private the treehouse might be your vibe.

Treehouse bedroom!
Glad I went for it
Lucked out and ended being the only guest there during my 3 night stay. Arcanum even spent a day showing me to different local spots. Truly enjoyed the daily conversation, stories and local tips from him.
Was worried about staying this far from the 2 major cities but it was actually perfect. Good middle point that I could drive to either city and not have it take the entire day.
Tree house was amazing! Falling asleep to the breeze and waking up to the birds was amazing. It stormed 1 of the nights and I was surprisingly dry. Didnât feel a single drop of rain. Fair warning though, the rain did get loud on the roof but I didnât mind, I still found it relaxing. They have curtains hanging if you want to use those but I didnât. Thereâs also a mosquito net you can put up but I didnât and was fine. Theres 2 other buildings but the trees made the space feel private and hidden. You do walk past the other 2 to get to the tree house so I feel tree house is best for privacy.
Keep in mind this is hip camp. Other than the cabin, the tree house and the communal space are open spaces. Youâre in nature and there will be critters. Mainly geckos. Not too different if you were actually camping. Cats and chickens on property.
It is off-grid(ish). They have solar for power, running water, compost toilet and a shower. Service was decent on my phone. Only MINOR complaint was the sheets but not enough to make it unpleasant. Still slept like a baby.
If renting a car, higher clearance is better.

âWe had a wonderful stay at Wendyâs! Our host, Arcanum was fantastic, and the spot was incredibly private. The hot shower was a nice touch, and while we didnât use the communal kitchen, it was great to have the option. This spot is conveniently located to some great spots to south point, black sand beach, and the volcanos. Just a heads up, the road in is a bit rough, but manageable even with a sedan. We drove in with an SUV, which made it a bit easier.â

The treehouse bedroom is absolutely beautiful! Drifting to sleep to the sounds of the forest and the raising moon is amazing

Lovely treehouse
Amazing place !! The treehouse is soooo so lovely ! Waking up with the sounds of birds is a great experience. The bed is comfortable, the shower got hot water, and you have everything that you might need in the kitchen.
Definitely a peaceful place. The host was kind and really nice. I would come back for sure!
