Wife doing this review!
The location is beautiful, right on the golf course and we could see out past the tree line to the ocean. It rained most of our stay, so we couldn’t take advantage of the walk on the golf course - but the house itself was beautiful and the AC helped us to battle the muggy heat (super grateful).
The pictures showed a tiled shower, but it was a tub/shower combo - still beautiful nonetheless! It was perfect for my husband and I, we’ve been wanting to do a getaway for some time now - but with COVID restrictions, we had to be patient. There was a cute tray with 2 water bottles and chocolate macadamia nuts in the fridge and a personalized note from Sandy (super thoughtful and very cute!) Ample towels, wash cloths, floor towels & a hall closet full of supplies for a nice day at the beach.
The loft upstairs was very cute, almost like being in a treehouse haha! We enjoyed the views with the curtains opened & were able to relax peacefully, just the two of us. The pull out sofa bed was nice when we were lounging in the living room, and the fans were nice! There is a mounted wall fan above the bed in the loft, a big one in the living room and the kitchen. We would cool the house down to about 70 and let the fans circulate the air - it was cooler because of the rainy weather as well.
The only down side is that my husband and I would play music (we’re adults, not playing it at an obnoxious level, being very honest here) and apparently the neighbors down stairs could hear it. They didn’t approach us about it, but my husband had gone outside to grab something from our truck and overheard the lady downstairs yelling at her husband about how annoying we were. We were also able to hear her and the neighbors next door with loud bangs and shouting/elevated speaking. Hence, the reason for the music. The walls are thin, and that is of no fault of the hosts - but just a heads up in the event that you have children, are loud by nature or walk heavily. We tried to be more quiet after that. BUT! I was not giving up my music. Period.
Getting there was a breeze, Sandy was very descriptive about how to get into the gate and enter the home. There is a binder with lots of information on the desk in the living room, right at the foot of the stairs. Great read for those of you who are looking for activities, the house rules and what not. The steps are a bit steep, so do be careful going up and down (especially if you have knee issues, there is a light at the top of the stairs that is motion sensor) along with the living room light and being able to turn the light on in the loft from the living room. So have no fear of the dark in this home :)
Once again, we very much enjoyed our stay - there’s lots to do down on that side of the island (we’re locals, so I say that side of the island) and if you do decide to stay here, I hope the weather is kind and you’re able to experience the beauty of our island! Thank you again to the hosts!
Love & Blessings!
