The house commands wonderful views of ocean and forest. It has beautiful woodwork and plentiful storage. The porch is lovely to relax on.
But there were many signs of poor maintenance. The bedroom had its largest window boarded up (for two months! according to the property manager.) This makes air circulation less efficient and there is no air conditioning. The refrigerator leaked water onto the shelves (a known problem since we were told to try to catch the water in a bowl. Some of the pans and utensils were rusted and very worn and should be thrown out and replaced. The property manager showed us the beach chairs- rusted badly and complained about by a prior tenant. With some cajoling, he agreed to replace them the next day.
The kitchen stove had one burner that did not light and the kitchen had none of the small amenities that make cooking easier (no oil, a few ancient spice containers).
For my wife, about 5’1”, the bed was ridiculously high and there were only very large pillows, meaning I had no pillow that was comfortable.
And, less importantly, there were many, many light switches, not always logically arranged. Simple labels would be very helpful.
We would consider staying here again only if the management of the property was significantly improved.
