Overall, we really liked staying at Cair Paravel and we would return! The location was what we really appreciated, since we were close enough to the beach to walk there and also walk to the bay, where we were able to leave our 2 kayaks. The house fit our needs overall and a few other things we wanted to note that we like are: the reverse osmosis water kitchen water system, the greenpan (because non-stick pans shed plastics into foods), good grilling utensils, nice to have a bamboo cutting board, hot tub was wonderful, nice outdoor shower, it was nice to have games and puzzles and ping pong. It was nice to have some suggestions listed for places to go and eat at as options. We enjoyed the 3 options for sitting on the decks and porch...nice bay sunsets!Here are a few suggestions and also some things to note for other travelers to plan better: It was nice to know that there are no "spices" that are provided and that means salt and pepper too...so bring those. The internet service went in and out some, so working from the house was a bit of a challenge for online meetings.Make sure you bring detergent for the dishwasher and clothes washer and dishwashing soap.If you like to cook, bring an extra cutting board...unless you want to use plastic ones.It really is close to the beach and bay which is fabulous!
