Overall it was a subpar stay. The place is clean enough, but somewhat dilapidated. It’s not dirty, but it’s not not dirty. Everything is falling apart. It’s furnished with cheap, old ikea and feels uncared for.
The sink handle fell off, the shower handle was really difficult to turn, the gas burner was on when we arrived because that knob seemed to also be broken. when we tried to get in contact with the host about it, they never replied.
In fact host only made contact two days later, asking if a tree trimmer come by to cut the palm tree on the property for during the afternoon of our final day. When we asked that they reschedule for the day we check out, they agreed and assured us they’d postpone the work. Then the tree trimmer showed up anyway
They stomped on the roof, and were moving between the front, side and back of the house shouting and sawing, sending tree trimmings into the pool, huge palm fronds raining down into the yard and the pool all at 2pm—prime pool time—ruining the whole point of this rental. Gratefully the host gave us a refund for the last day since this unpleasantness occurred.
We ultimately just used the pool and didn’t even stay over, because we live close enough and it was not as nice as our own home. Disappointed but honestly it isn’t far off from what i was expecting, based off past reviews and pictures, aside from the tree trimming bother. The pool was nice, but there a a few active wasp nests back there so be careful.
All in all, the place is fine. Not terrible, not great
