Great location

Very enjoyable stay. Close enough to the stores and restaurants to walk. Comfortable. Great view. Had some difficulty getting in and reported some concerns but didn’t get a response.

Good Location and a Great View

First of all, the view from the deck was fantastic. The property is at the end of a steep rise so that is something to bear in mind (was not an issue for us). The property is a little tired around the edges but we were extremely comfortable and had the best nights' sleep for ages. We'll miss that view!

Nice view (covered by overgrown trees) but that’s about it

The house was very average and wreaked of mustiness on arrival. Probably due to the bad condensation issue (we mopped windows in the mornings!) and years of unwashed curtains and carpets? That should be addressed. Broken furniture and shoddy decking did little to impress outside and the trees were overgrown and ruining what could have been a spectacular view. The knives in the kitchen were very blunt and pretty unusable and need replacing. It’s those little things that make a difference to guests. Overall a tired accomodation that could do with some love to get it ‘guest ready’ again. We appreciated the slightly earlier check in time though.

Wonderful View

Stayed here for three nights. What a lovely view. Every evening we sat on the lanai, ate dinner and watched the sunset. The house is a little rough around the edges, but very comfortable. You can't beat the view.
