We recently stayed a month at this condo. The condo was large and furnished nicely. We enjoyed the artist/owner's many shelled mirrors, etc. While generally clean, the floors did not appear to have been cleaned recently. Some utensils, pots and pans were not clean. There was a heavy layer of dust under the beds. Our biggest disappointment was the blinds, which had broken pull cords and could not be raised to enjoy the view. Two of the three patio umbrellas had tears and were unstable in the wind. The beds were very good, and the main bathroom shower was very nice. The master shower/tub combo has a very high and deep ledge to step over, making it difficult to use for shorter persons. There were plenty of bath towels and wash cloths, but hand towels were minimal. The kitchen had a wonderful Viking range that we enjoyed. The dishwasher is in bad shape and needs to be replaced (rusted rack, calcium accumulation). The refrigerator/freezer and cupboards were fairly full, leaving minimal space for our things. Being there a month meant having to shop frequently.
Our biggest inconvenience was the leaking marble farm sink in the kitchen which we noticed after a few days. Due to the water damage in the under sink cabinet, the sink had been leaking for some time. The owner said she had not noticed it was leaking and was unsure what to do. However, near the end of the 2nd week of our stay, during the middle of the night, the front of the marble sink fell and broke on the kitchen floor. It was fortunate no one was near the sink at the time. The owner quickly had a stone person come and look at the sink who offered 2 options for repair. Both would have required that we be away from the condo several hours due to epoxy fumes or marble dust. Because one of us has chemical sensitivities and allergies, plus we had another couple arriving at the condo 4 days later, we asked if they could wait to do the repair until after we left. We did not want to disrupt our planned activities or have to take our small dog with us during the day. A small amount of compensation was offered if the repair was done, but nothing for the inconvenience we had incurred earlier.
It is our opinion that this condo would benefit from regular maintenance and a thorough cleaning. It was obvious the condo was very beautiful in the past and with a few upgrades, will be again.
