Nice place but house consists of 2 units
We had a nice time. The location is as advertised, the views are terrific. When we first came the place was quite dusty and very hot (seems almost as if nobody was expecting us) but thanks to air-conditioning and a broom I found on the back porch we took care of this. We were surprised that the place consists of 2 units (maybe it says it somewhere but I did not notice). During the week cleaners came a few times to the neighboring unit, and toward the end of our stay a family of 4 moved in, presumably the owners, because they also brought a large dog and a bunch of gardeners with weed whackers who made a lot of noise one day. So it was not as private and quiet as we had hoped. Also, there was no mid-week cleaning (would have been a nice touch), and no information for renters, e.g. how to deal with trash, how to recycle, good beaches nearby, recommended restaurants, how to charge mobile router etc. We had to buy our own beach towels as the only towels provided were a few smallish white ones. And 'beach front' is not quite correct: There is no way you can walk to the beach. It's a fairly steep road down (you don't want to walk it up during the afternoon heat!) and the closest beach is not very pretty. But a 5 minutes drive around the bend is a really beautiful sandy beach, where we spent spent several days. We would have also liked more comfortable lounge chairs. The outside sofa was great but only good for 1 person to lie down. The family gives it 3 of 5 stars.
