Roi's place was really beautiful. It was a private beach a great spot to swim. There were a few things that made us feel a little unwelcome, despite efforts of the hosts to be cordial.
We had a car, but without one, you'd be a bit more isolated than we had anticipated. Also, the beach had garbage which washed up daily (which is typical of everywhere in the area). We ended up sweeping it away a couple of days to enjoy sitting there with our feet in the sand, but our hosts never bothered to clean it which we found bizarre, and slightly annoying. There was no blender, which seems like a must for tropical fruit smoothies and mixed beverages, as well as there definitely need to be more than one small ice-cube tray.
The biggest issue was that in June 2018, when we booked, there was a clear bottom tandem kayak that was available for guests described in the listing (and by a few of the prior reviews). With shallow sandy waters abounding, we had planned to use this to explore the area and do a few day trips with snorkel gear. When we arrived, Roi explained that they had no insurance for this kayak, and thus that they didn't let guests take it out. We were pretty disappointed about this as it was one of our main reasons for choosing Roi's place.
Finally, there were a few things like having a lock on the air conditioning box so that settings could not be adjusted (it was way too cold), or asking us to hang wet towels in specific spots (despite it being out of the way of the hosts and no worse for wear on the chairs than all of the salty sea air) that made us feel untrusted as guests.
The place was beautiful, but there was definitely an uneasiness we felt about staying there that we've never experienced at any of our other stays in the past. Hopefully, with a few changes, the listing can be all that it has the potential to be for future guests.
Thank you for taking into consideration our thoughts as avid airbnb-ers.
