Hard to put this in to words, overall the house is ok and tidy and has a nice deck looking over a valley (Not out to the ocean as the photos suggest) but when you charge a premium price I think you open yourself up to the review I am about to give.
Unfortunately our stay was quite uncomfortable, this is largely down to the beds. After sleeping poorly you become pretty jaded by the environment, particularly when you've been charged an absolute premium (twice as what we paid per night for accommodation over Christmas (our fault too for paying)).
All beds- Terrible, terrible mattresses and pillows (the cheapest you could find). All are very, very thin. Roll out trundle is shocking to sleep on. Been using Airbnb for a decade and these are the worst beds we've slept on.
Really 1.5 bedrooms, 2nd room is a windowless room with a skylight, while one of two large bedrooms is locked away for the owners use. So you're not really getting the entire place when you can't use one of only two bedrooms.
For those with young children, to put them to sleep in that study/bedroom would be tough for some during daylight savings with zero ability to block out light. The bunk bed and mattresses would be very uncomfortable for teenagers and older.
Mattress protectors - three in main bedroom that were covered in dog hairs and some were stained.
- dishwasher does not clean properly so ended up hand washing dishes (that's fine, if the price is right)
- cutlery holder has food crumbs in it and dirty utensils and frying pan was dirty.
- BBQ was dirty/rusty under very the BBQ liner you're instructed to use if you want to use the BBQ.
- Driveway needs work. Quite steep and it's dirt and the port is quite narrow so negating sliding wheels while trying to align the car is far from pleasant.
view- the ocean view in the photos is exaggerated, the actual view of looking out over the valley with the Ocean in the very distance is still nice.
No pleasure in writing this but also tired of reading reviews, while subjective, that don't give a true account of the place.
