Beautiful Home for a Large Group in Paradise
This is our second time staying at this property and we love it so much. There have been some updates since our last visit and we love it even more now. It's the perfect space for our large family, with plenty of room for the kids to run and explore. They loved seeing geckos every day, listening to the birdsong and crowing of the roosters, and saying hello to the goats next door.
The complaints we have are fairly minor: We couldn't find the beach towels. There weren't enough bath towels for all of us. The WiFi didn't work for over a day (and with cell service being pretty shotty, it made it difficult to research and make plans for the next day). And for a vacation home, there definitely should not be any "not microwave safe" plates and bowls. Even though they were pretty!
Our biggest complaint was the cleaning crew arrived early and, though checkout wasn't until 11am, they came up the driveway at 10:45 and hovered around until we left. This seemed rude and unprofessional to us. Getting six kids (and even more suitcases) loaded into the car is enough as it is without feeling "watched" and pressured to hurry. I know it's a LOT of work to clean and prepare a rental house, but it's my feeling that there should be at least a 15-minute buffer to allow guests to fully exit the property before the cleaners come in to do their job. We have stayed at many, many VRBOs and this is the first time we've ever ran into this issue.
Overall, a most wonderful place to stay, though!
