Our first impression was very positive: we had garage space to put our car - very nice to have it out of the sea air; we had an incredible view of the ocean right outside the front window; the main floor bed was up-to-date and very comfortable (not saggy); there was plenty of comfortable seating to allow us to spend hours reading and enjoying the view as we like to do on vacation. Entry to the house was a bit difficult due to the fact that the key access pad is old and difficult to work with. It took many attempts to force the buttons to work giving access to the key.
Tiny issues that could be improved include the key holder; the silverware, which was on the sparse side and on the cheap side, could be upgraded a bit to make you not worry about bending anything in normal use.
A medium issue that the property managment firm should take into consideration is when someone rents the place for 7 nights, more than 2 dishwasher cleaning pods should be provided/allowed! We were told when we asked for more that no more would be provided because they only provide a starter amount. Who brings dishwasher pods with them on vacation???? How would the renter know what kind was allowed - pod vs. granular vs. liquid??? When questioned about this "oversight," the property mgmt firm should willingly allow more to be delivered instead of telling the renter that 2 is all they provide. They did relent eventually, but after pushback.
Lastly, the gas fire stove didn't work. We tried to follow the instructions and after multiple failed attempts called the property management who proceeded to repeat the instructions we already knew didn't work. Fortunately, the property mgmt firm's handyman was nearby who determined that the system was broken. Upon arrival, he graciously supplied enough dishwasher pods to get us through the week.
Of course, most people won't have to deal with a broken fire stove and it wasn't really necessary because the house heating system is very adequate. The stove was more for ambiance. Not a big deal. I'm sure that by the next few weeks, the stove was fixed. It seems nobody had reported it broken - probably just figured that they weren't following the instructions correctly. :)
We would return to this lovely house. I just mention the above items for the consideration of the owners (key box/silverware) to upgrade and to report on how the policies of the property mgmt didn't jive with the needs.
