Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Spacious, homely, great location. 1 block to shops & restaurants. 1 block to a safe swimming beach. In the heart of “The Mount” and it was great. Kitchen had all the pots pans & utensils needed, house had space & older kids loved their bedrooms. We loved it & would stay again without a doubt. Hosts were great to talk to & entry & exit was a breeze.
