CACTI HOUSE: Many pros of this place. A fantastic living / kitchen/ dining area much bigger, better and lighter than the listing photos. Good AC unit. The outdoor table under the covered sitting area is terrific. The lawn and trampoline were used all the time by our kids. Everything was spotless, bed linen was great, two bathrooms which were useful. Excellent location 5 mins walk from Koonya beach. Brian is very friendly.
The few cons are the beautiful but baffling collection of dangerous prickly cacti at toddler level which was alarming and unnerving, including in the kids room! We put most of them outside unless they were too heavy.
The older back part of the house (bedrooms and bathrooms) is poorly insulated and the floorboards are creaky but it didn’t matter except on the really hot days. BBQ is old and not responsive but works ok.
Overall a great stay - but would be much better without the cacti!
