This house is beautiful and the view is amazing. We loved our time on the terrace taking everything in. I could enjoy coffee, reading and meals there all day. The kitchen is large and had nice appliances. We didn't spend much time in the living room but it was sufficient. We all slept well in the beds although the mattresses could use protectors and fitted sheets that actually fit.
The information on this property needs to be updated and corrected. This house does NOT have air conditioning. This was one of my top three search items because I was travelling with my elderly parents and I have a medical condition that makes me extremely sensitive to heat. That being said, we were not at the house very much during the daytime hours when the temperature was the highest. During the night, it cools down enough to open the windows and was almost cold. There is a different house manager from the names provided in the description. Martin was friendly but we had a hard time understanding directions he provided. It would have been nice to have written information regarding local restaurants, shops and things to do. There was no welcome basket or fruit which was not a big deal but knowing that might have saved us a trip that first evening.
There are two bedrooms and one bathroom on the main floor. The master bedroom upstairs has an incredible view and offers a master bath. The water in the master bath is solar heated so 3/4 of our showers were cool/cold. The master bath sink doesn't offer hot water at all and lights needed to be replaced over the vanity.
Prior to arrival, we were informed there would be a cell phone for our use during the stay. This was amazing because it would allow us to make local calls and would provide GPS during our outings. There was not a phone for our use. This was a big disappointment as we ended up spending money on a phone that we hadn't planned on.
It seems like I'm pointing out a lot of negative however this house is beautiful and clean. The grounds are incredibly well kept and the view is gorgeous. We joked that we could stay at the house the entire trip, just taking in the view. We watched birds, bugs and lizards as we relaxed. We wish we would have had more time to walk the trails and explore the property more. The location was great and we found a lot to do. We would recommend the place to friends and return ourselves.
