The house was nice and in the perfect location for our visit. I really appreciated the quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed sitting on the patio furniture by the pool (great view) and swimming. The pool was not heated and was a little chilly but felt great in the sun. The dishwasher was quiet. Stephen left us with a lot of towels but with the pool, beach, and showers we were happy to be able to use the washer and dryer to always have clean towels on hand. We were unable to check-in at the designated time because the cleaner was still there. We had to wait 20 minutes. It sounds like it was a new cleaner and their first time so I wouldn't think this is a regular occurrence. Also, none of the bathrooms had hand towels but I'm pretty sure that was also a misunderstanding with the cleaner. We requested a high chair for our stay and Stephen was able to provide one for us which made our stay much easier with our 1 year old. The furniture was also very comfortable. Stephen was quick to respond to our questions and concerns. Overall I would recommend Stephen's place.
