Lovely property right across from the harbor! The hosts were friendly and informative, the rental was well stocked, attractive and comfortable.A few areas to improve (but not enough to remove a star): - The bathrooms need more shelf space to store toiletries, particularly the one in the living room - Most of the interior door handles are installed upside down, which makes it a bit awkward to open the doors- The third bedroom has no closet space or dresser (washer/dryer/cleaning supplies take up the entire closet).We also encountered a resident of one of the downstairs units (glass door, not the Captain's Quarters) who was blasting a podcast at 3 a.m. From what we could tell, she is a permanent resident rather than a vacation renter, so it might happen again. We knocked on her door the second night when the noise started again at midnight, and she turned it off.
