Let me just say that we have stayed in no less than 7 different homes on various islands in the Caribbean. Out of them all, this property had the biggest issues with heat. There was almost no breeze at all, and that really stinks when the outdoorsy nature of the house requires the air to keep the occupants cool when you're out in the common areas. Speaking of the heat, we got some nastygrams from the owner for running the AC units in a couple of the bedrooms longer than she thought we should. She sent me a text in French which I didn't receive since I had not turned on any kind of international support - when I finally did see it, it was all in French and I thought it was just a typical "hope you're having fun, etc." messages so I just kind of blew it off. The next one I translated and she said that all the AC units should be turned off if we were going to be gone lone, and that it only takes 15 minutes to cool a room off completely. Well I don't know what she was talking about because those units took forever to cool down rooms, and at least two of the rooms have a hard time keeping the temperature that's comfortable unless you want to be partially uncovered. We left the house for 45 minutes and she sent a message saying she was going to bill us extra money, which would have been fine except she's not allowed to do that - she's also not allowed to enter the home without prior announcement and she did that twice too so there you go.
The house inside is nice, and it has a nice outdoor area as well. It's just hot, there are no good beaches anywhere close to this property, and all of the pretty parts of the island are alllllll the way on the other side. So based on everything I mentioned and the bad location, it's going to be a two for me and the family. There were also no plug converters for anything using the American standard. I didn't expect them to have the house wired and ready for us, but a couple of adapters would have been really great. I had to go to 5 different stores before I found one and it costs me almost 50 euro.
