Needs maintenance and upkeep including lawn care

To the most part the house was great. We were 14 people there and we were able to stay comfortably.

The kitchen was well stocked and the three separate units (especially 3 kitchens) worked good for our family. And it was nice that we were all together under one roof.

The house smelled clean upon entering. I was Leary due to a previous review. The ceiling in the hall of two fish has a board coming down that needs to be nailed up. The railing in one fish going to the bathroom is shaky and loose. The outer back door to one fish does not lock but there is a inner door that does lock. The furniture on the balconies are dirty. There is a nice size yard front and back but the grass should have been mowed, the foliage would be pretty if it were attended to. The house was great for our family gathering. The three different suites lended themselves to privacy or quite away from the larger group. Two fish needs curtains over the glass blocks in the bathroom. The light shines into the bedroom and you can see what is going on in the bathroom. It would make more privacy. The balconies are nice and breezy. The house is a convenient short walk to the beach and eating places. And there is an outdoor shower to rinse the beach off. Overall it a nice place.

Pictures of this cottage definitely need to be updated. The three cottages we booked were no way worth over $600 a night. The first cottage smelled so bad we were unable to use it. (had to put everyone in the other two) The ceiling was falling in the one of the cottages, refrigerator was working effectively. The large cottage was really hot for the first day, but then cooled off. The grass was so high that we could not let our toddler play outside at all. There is more but i think we get the picture.

Love it but needed more tvs

We arrived and some moms in the group were wanting to leave immediately and find another place to stay. The outside needs some TLC - brush and weeds cleaned up, maybe some paint touch ups to give it some curb appeal. The inside was obviously cleaned between uses, but could really use a good deep clean. Refrigerator door handles were a bit nasty in the studio area. Years of dust have crusted the corners and baseboards. We chose to appreciate the character of it, but these things do need to be taken care of for the overall appeal of the place. It would be great if each section could somehow connect on the interior for large groups. It's a good space and has some great characteristics. It just needs a little more to bring it up a notch.
