The house is just like described and shown in the pictures: very homey and cozy. The kitchen is very well equipped, the bathroom and rooms are spacy, the bed is extremely comfortable, there were plenty of pillows and blankets and the various heating systems were well functioning and appropriate (and necessary since we visited between january and february). There was also a baby bed and ikea baby chair with tray where our little girl could eat. Unluckily we couldn't use the community pool and the outdoor patio because it was not that warm, during the summer it must be very nice, relaxing and a great place to stay!
Since it was off season everything nearby was closed: shops, restaurant, supermarkets... in summer there must be a totally different atmosphere in the area, now it was absolutely calm and a car was necessary to go everywhere, though there are nice little coves to walk to.
We didnt meet Melody because she was not on the island, but we spoke to her on the phone and she's been super nice trying to help us (through Gloria, who was waiting for us for check in) with all the problems we had on arrival (travelling with a 10 months old baby, delayed flight and the airline lost our luggage for 1 and a half days, so we got on the island late saturday night and sunday every shop was closed and we couldn't even buy what needed...).
We had some issue with the cleaning of the house which, for our standards and for the price paid for cleaning costs, was not quite accurate (dirty and dusty floor, spiderwebs, spotted towel, greasy frying pans...); but due to all that happened with the lost luggage (our main problem) we preferred not to comment it to Melody then, we just cleaned ourself and told it to her showing pictures only at the end of the holiday. She was sorry about it and promised she would ammend and make sure it doesn't happen again assuring that that was not her standard neither, but this time she was not personally there to check it.
Also remember that there is no wifi!
In the end, a part from the cleaning, I consider her house a very beautiful and comfortable place to spend a relaxing holiday and where a family can really feel at home! :)
