This is a beautiful house with 5 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and air conditioning. The main part of the house is not air-conditioned, but double sliding doors allow you to open everything up to enjoy the ocean breeze. There was a bit of a drop-off to the beach itself, but there was a gorgeous pool right outside our door; that's where we spent most of our time. We felt very safe and secure in our: "compound" with round-the-clock security guards, along with someone to take care of the property. There was maid service available when we needed it, and they frequently brought us clean towels. Although the cooks were additional, they were well worth it, and they did it all, from the shopping to the cooking to the cleanup. It was fantastic, and my entire family decided that we should always have a "staff" for our vacations, especially the cooks. The only drawback was that we really couldn't walk to anything (we had 2 small children with us) and had to hire a ride if we wanted to go anywherew - but that was a slight inconvenience compared to what an overall fabulous place this was. We all hated when our time was up and we had to leave.
