Skypoint is in a nice location up a hill with views out towards the ocean. The gardens are lovely, and entrance gives it a nice feeling on approach.
Hutt provided THE BEST pre-arrival information regarding the area with pages of restaurant suggestions all over the island as well as excursions to do. We have stayed in many 5 star hotels, and his recommendations would rival many of those for detail and completeness. Very professional.
Martin welcomed us warmly upon arrival, showing us the lay of the land, which was a lovely touch for an airbnb.
The decor of the studio was lovely-it shows someone with experience in thoughtful design has created this space, and was perfectly sized for the 2 of us.
We would give our whole overall experience a 9/10. We had a couple of issues during our stay.
1. Small problems with pillow and water filter. Once we notified hutt and martin they were VERY speedy at resolving this issue for us, and replacing said items. Even 5 star hotels can have similar issues, and these guys were so quick and pleasant in resolving the matter and apologising for the inconvenience-this is definitely a pro point for staying here.
2. They do garden work on a friday morning. On arrival, martin warned us of this, and said the gardeners would be coming at 9am. We asked if they would be using any machinery, but were told no, they were planting in so hand tools only. The pnumatic drill started at 8am. This was too much really. They had to do some remedial work due to heavy rainfall, but using heavy machinery at this early hour, an hour earlier than warned, was not acceptable in our opinion. Having said that, I’m guessing this work is not needed regularly so probably won’t be an issue for most.
3. The hot tub does not have bubbles or jets of any significant power. We thought it was broken the 1st time, and upon telling martin I think it had been in economy mode. He told us then that it has no bubbles as they like to keep it quiet. I understand wanting peace, but when we sat in it on 2nd attempt you can’t really feel any of the jets at all-not really the same as any hot tub experience we have previously had. But a nice spot to sit in a hot bath if you like that. The other guests didn’t use it during our stay, so pretty private.
