i will start with the good : the outdoor spaces at ken's house were great! the pool was big and clean and best of all - heated! it felt wonderful! it even had fountains into the pool and pool lights for night swims. the jacuzzi was big and heated up great with remotes or the app - so nice. the tennis court was awesome - we used it a lot - even used some rackets they had - a beautiful court with nice ocean breezes. the outdoor fireplaces were terrific too (though no furniture in front of one so we had to drag over some pool furniture). we even got some use out of the gym above the pool house (machines were not in great working order- but the punching bag and available gloves were a REAL hit with our son). all in all -- backyard was awesome. now for the no- so-great - the decor is pretty dated (though, to be fair, we could kind of tell that from the photos). but upstairs is not only dated - it was down-at-the-heels (i.e. chunks of carpet hacked out and replaced haphazardly, stained blankets, pre-fab plastic shower stalls instead of tile, rickety bathroom fixtures, etc etc) - it did not feel at all in line with the $2300/night price tag. but the part that i had the most issue with was that we felt a lack of hospitality or attention to guest experience (i.e. there is a large bar in the tv room but there was not a single glass or shot glass or cocktail shaker or ice bucket or anything with which to make a drink in the whole house. there was a stained tablecloth covering the one large dining table - and were were told to eat all our meals on that one stained tablecloth?) the thing that really irked me, though, were the towels. again, we paid $2300 a night - and they allowed one pool towel and one bath towel per person FOR OUR WHOLE STAY. and when i inquired about more towels - i was told they were not running a professional laundry! a ridiculous response to someone who is paying so much for a luxury stay.
