BEAUTIFUL LOCATION...NEEDS MUCH MAINTAINENCE
We selected this cottage for its beautiful location and awesome photos depicting a very amiable and comfortable look. Photos however never tell the true story. I will start with the PROS:
Location and vista are absolutely amazing.
Kitchen is well equipped and as a chef I was pleased with all equipment and variety as well.
All appliances worked well.
CONS:
Great room has a wall of windows in front. 4 can be opened to let in the beautiful sea air however 3 of the 4 were broken and could not be opened. Additionally, they were filthy. You had a very cloudy view of the magnificent water! We would have cleaned ourselves but alas, no Windex..,.no wonder the host never gets them cleaned.
The great room couch was ripped in 2 places, and it was so old that you practically sunk to the floor when you sit on it. I only way 160 lbs so not a weight issue.
The downstairs shower head is so old it is caked with green mold and the water stream is weak. YUK! $100 can easily fix that.
Upstairs bathroom only has a jacuzzi. Pretty tough to shower in a jacuzzi! Yes, it had a pull-out shower head that worked well but it was awkward to climb in and out on the 2 steps of slippery tiles...no safety grab bars! Slippery because there was no curtain to stop the water
from spraying onto the steps making them treacherous.
Beds - Main front bedroom extremely soft old mattress which is not good for a tender back. Twins in the other room were better but not stellar. Downstairs was old and soft too.
