We spent March and most of April here. My first impression of the house was that it wasn't clean. The bed in the master looked like someone had gotten out of it and just pulled the comforter over the top. When I contacted Luis, he assured me his cleaner had cleaned prior to our arrival. But, that made me uncomfortable as to what else was not cleaned. I washed the bedding right off.

The house needs a thorough cleaning. The futons and pillows in the tv room are dirty and smell musty. There are dead bugs and filth on the window sills and behind the furniture. The kitchen cabinets need a thorough cleaning as well. The blinds at some of the windows are falling apart.

The well water smells and tastes awful. We had to buy all of our consumable water. Also, when doing laundry, clothes came out discolored. If staying here for only a few days, this wouldn't be an issue, but is when staying for several weeks.

All of this being said, the property is lovely. It is quiet and peaceful, and we enjoyed all the birds. The screened porch and front porch are the best features of the house. But, it would be nice if all the stuff on the front porch was stored away.

We have rented houses in Florida for 15 years, and this is only the second time we have had to stay in a property that was so unkempt. I encourage Luis to do a major cleaning before continuing to advertise this house. There isn't anything he can do about the well water, but there is a lot he can do about the condition of the house.
