There’s a lot that needs doing to this property in order to bring it up to standard, but I don’t want this to put anyone off visiting here.
The main issues are all cosmetic and could be resolved quickly. The grass was knee high in places. The shower handle came off when used. The cupboard door in the master ensuite room fell off. The inner shelf in one of the cupboards in the twin rooms was damaged. The pool looked ready for a clean when we got there and looked almost unusable by the end of the week. Ifbwe were staying any longer, we would have called someone to come and clean it. The general cleanliness wasn’t fantastic, but nothing to complain about; although, we did have to buy a sweeping brush because there was no vacuum cleaner or brush available and the tiled floors soon got dirty and attracted ants. The communication with the owners was great. The air con unit started leaking and they got someone out the next day to fix it.
Having said all this, the property has a lot of charm and it couldn’t be in a better location. Walking distance to supermarkets, shops, a wonderful beach, a water park and lots of places to eat. We hired a car to explore other places on the island but it’s not necessary here.
All in all, the charm and location outweighed the little issues we had, to the point where we are looking at booking again, for next year.
