Not too small but cozy while everyone having ther own space. Easy to keep tidy without too much clutter. Great outdoor dining area with BBQ. Very handy outdoor shower for after the nearby beach."
"Signage was unclear & hard to see in the dark what & where the room numbers are. Toilet was difficult to flush. Bedside lamps were not plugged, nor was there a power socket near. "

" We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place for the weekend. The house was absolutely beautiful, perfectly presented, and had everything we needed. The pool was a real highlight and made our stay extra relaxing. The space was comfortable, clean, and felt like a true home away from home. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway."

Reviewer Comments:
The property has the potential to be a dream stay, but unfortunately it feels quite neglected and in need of some TLC.The windows and fly screens were very dirty and clearly haven’t been cleaned for a long time. There is no air conditioning and, despite checking beforehand, none of the bedroom fans were working. I had read a review from April 2025 mentioning the same issue and specifically asked about it prior to booking, so it was disappointing to arrive and find this hadn’t been addressed. The weather was hot and humid, which made sleeping very uncomfortable. My son slept outside because it was way too hot in the bedrooms. The clothes airer was broken and kept collapsing, the towels were very old, and there wasn’t even a tea towel provided. We were given only one hand towel and a worn bath mat for the whole group.That said, there are some positives — the lounge furniture is comfortable, the open-plan kitchen is lovely, and the shower is good. With proper maintenance, working fans (or air conditioning), and better basic supplies, this could be a beautiful place to stay.At the moment, however, it doesn’t match the expectations set in the listing."
