Kitchen facilities were poor. Had to even buy potato peeler some lights didn’t work. Knives are blunt. Kitchen drawers really hard to open and shut. Clocks need new batteries. No fan in main bedroom. Had to move bedrooms due to noisy neighbour number 16. who played television loud all night. My husband who is unwell had to go up to his place twice to get him to turn it down. In the end moved bedrooms which was better. Excited to see spa but didn’t work. Outside lights sometimes worked. Outlook in backyard lovely. We were very disappointed with the house as it is a good location to the beach. No instructions with washing machine and tv.
