Location-wise, you cannot beat this spot! The owner Bob and his representative Brooke were both VERY responsive, accommodating and fantastic. I also want to commend them on the overall cleanliness of the unit, the bbq not withstanding.
We had a slight issue with the lock, and I barely waited a minute for Brooke to respond with texts and a call to my cell to effectively deal with the problem. A couple of other minor issues were also quickly dealt with.
The only quibble is that this place is a bit more on the rustic side, so as long as you’re fully aware, you should enjoy this fabulous location just a minute’s walk to the gorgeous beach.
Issues to consider, depending on what’s important to you:
1) the sofa bed looks like a futon but it is some sort of weird coiled mattress where you can feel the springs. We put the quilts plus the padded cover down, but it is NOT a comfortable sofa bed by any stretch.
2) the kitchenette set up is very basic and the knives are very dull, so maybe bring your own. That said, we adapted and managed to make several decent, simple meals using the bbq, hot plate and toaster oven.
3) The main bed is soft, like a firm-ish foam mattress, so if you need a firmer bed, this is not for you. Also, the bedroom AC is VERY loud, so bring ear plugs, or be prepared to sleep with the door open as it will quickly get stuffy even with the ceiling fan on.
4) this is not a complaint, but be aware that this is a tropical island, you can’t get away from bugs. There are teeny, tiny (quite harmless) “ghost ants” that seem to favour the kitchen sink/counter area and to a lesser extent, the bathroom. I suspect they spray here often, but really, there’s only so much you can do, and I think you will find them in most rentals.
Overall, I was super impressed and thankful for Bob and Brooke, as we had to reschedule multiple times due to COVID, and they were very accommodating. Brooke’s responsiveness was unparalleled. Just remember that this spot is all about being steps from the beach, not necessarily on creature comforts, although it is quite clean.
