This place has a beautiful view with a great outdoor deck area. The inside area is nice, though we would perhaps have expected it to feel a bit more luxurious considering the price - it feels like a lot of what you are paying for for this place is the view. A few of the bedspreads had stains on them and the house was also missing a dish brush, which we had to buy ourselves.
Also, as a previous guest noted, the house next door is under construction and workmen were very close to the house and at times noisy. There is also work being done to the house itself (the driveway and pool), and I question why the house is available to rent when certain aspects aren’t finished.
The main problem we had with this place was the property management. Upon arrival, Richard (from the property management company) met us, told us a lot about the island, and then said that an electrician was coming in on one of the days we were staying to fix the broken hob. I asked if this could happen another day as it was at a time when we would be in the house. Richard was immediately taken aback and from then on seemed quite rude. I don’t think it’s fair to expect guests to allow someone onto the property, particularly when they are paying a lot of money to stay. Things should be fixed outside of guests’ stays.
We ended up being there during lockdown, and on the second day workmen showed up to work on the house. They were very noisy and came around the house a lot. The final straw was when they had to put something down on the deck, which is right outside the living area. The builder had told us that the owner had told him no one was here, which was of course not true.
We brought up our issues with Richard who gave us a free nights stay and then insinuated that we should not leave a bad review as a result. However as we had genuine issues with our stay I think it is only right to make them known.
