Anup N.

Liked: Check-in
Disliked: Communication
We booked this property for a large family reunion and had high expectations, but the stay was very disappointing. The water situation was unacceptable—barely enough to flush toilets, no dishwashing, no cooking, and no showers. Some of us went three days without showering. For the price we paid, this should never happen.The property manager admitted he was trying to get a plumber, but the issue was never resolved. Communication was slow, and I didn’t get a clear response about a refund until long after we had to make decisions on our own.To make matters worse, the host suggested someone in our group left an outdoor faucet open, which was not the case. This felt like an attempt to deflect blame instead of taking responsibility.Beautiful space, but the basics weren’t there. I would not recommend this rental unless you’re okay with the risk of having no running water.
