Huge Island Getaway Pool Hot Tub Walk To Beach

Huge Island Getaway Pool Hot Tub Walk To Beach

8/10 Good
"Great island with plenty of good restaurants.The host was extremely friendly and had great and prompt communication.Lovely house based upon the photos. The house was beautiful at one time. It’s tired and in need of some TLC. There were physical signs of water damage that was patched and left as is. Sliding doors do not lock but are held closed with sticks of wood. The main master bath tub was not working and there is mold in shower. Washing machine leaks. The gas stove did not fully work properly. Half of the bbq burners did not work. On the good note there was plenty of room to roam inside and outside. Several dining areas in house. Great house to enjoy. The pool was also lovely and comfortable. All in all it’s a nice rental, but overpriced for its current condition… I do hope the house is repaired and updated as it can be a fun place to stay."

"We have stayed for a week at this property three times. The house is wonderful — plenty of room for the seven members of our family. On the water location is great! We used the kayaks every day and brought inflatable floats for relaxing in the water. The property is very well maintained and the host responds quickly to any questions."
