Having just returned from our weeks stay in this property, my family and I were very disappointed in its appearance. What we found was quite different from the photographs on Homeaway, which were obviously taken some time ago. In short this house is in need of painting and a good clean. There were cobwebs, grubby curtains and stained pelmets in the master bedroom/bathroom, blinds which did not close correctly and the blind in the family room has slats missing. There was no gas in the fire pit for first night. Although this was quickly rectified following a text message the following day, it’s the kind of detail you expect not be overlooked when booking an ‘Executive Villa’. The pool and hot tub were lovely however it did not appear that the twice a week pool maintenance was carried out as stated by the owners. Having stayed in a number of Executive Villas over the years, when we have vacationed in the USA, this home is way below that standard in our opinion.
Grubby white carpets, trip hazards of multiple rugs everywhere, master bathroom lock sellotaped together, broken bathroom floor tiles taped together, undressed double beds in two of the rooms we used are a few examples that have influenced this opinion. We met the owners upon arrival and they are a lovely couple. The welcome pack they provided was much appreciated after our long drive from LA.
