First I’ll address Rose. What a sweet, kind and helpful woman she is! Rose was the highlight of our stay at the house and we loved her. Next, the location and view from the house speak for themselves. We couldn’t have happier with either. Now, I’ll address the termites. First day there we noticed termite droppings many places throughout the house. We let Rose know we had noticed the termite droppings and she informed us that this was a boring insect you were aware of. On January 29th and 30th there were swarming, flying termites throughout the house, mostly concentrated in the kitchen area. We also found dead termites and termite wings in random locations throughout the house. Also, since the termite droppings were all over the floor and were thus tracked throughout the house, by our feet and shoes, we ended up with termite poop in our bed every night! Needless to say, neither my wife nor I were quite ready to deal with these pests and were not happy to have to live and sleep in those conditions. As far as the AC not working in bedroom #1. We noticed this first thing as we arrived since there was a portable AC unit near the window, turned on but not working properly, blowing warm air. We had intended to use that room because of the king size bed located there. Since it was quite warm, we were forced to use bedroom #2 and sleep in a smaller bed where the AC unit was functional. Also, the bathroom exhaust fan did not work. One day we also woke up to rat poop on our bed as well as on the floor. This occurred sometime during the night on Jan 31st. We were not happy with that situation but since it was our last day on the island we just chalked it up as part of the experience. My wife mentioned to me Friday morning that it was good that she had not seen rat poop earlier in our stay or she would not have been able to stay in the house. The broken dishwasher was more of a disappointment for us and was not that big of deal. There were also numerous lizards inside the home. I would not reccomend anybody to rent this home until repairs are made.
