Wonderful space to have a family party. We had great weather but think that even in the rain it would have been fine

Beautiful property but poorly maintained
We stayed here July 5-12 during a heatwave. Unfortunately, and aside from the bedrooms, the property has no form of shading to the huge windows in the open plan living area, or up the stairs and along the bedroom corridor. The temperature inside, day and night, was very very uncomfortable. We didn’t expect air con but fans would have been nice. In addition no comfortable shaded seating area to relax and eat is provided outside. Not even a parasol. It isn’t enough to charge huge sums of money to rent this property based on position and views, which were beautiful. In our opinion the property has been lacking on going maintenance inside and out for some time.
We used the Love Shack as well. This also poorly maintained and not very clean. Items in bathroom rusted. Window and patio doors couldn’t be opened. Window rusted up and doors opened onto a drop and we had a dog.
We were a family party of 9 and we did have a wonderful time but that in main was due to the beach and hot tub.
