"From the moment we approached the driveway I was taken aback. There’s a large pile of old tires at the bottom of the drive. The drive is several hundred feet long and very rutted and muddy. It badly needs to be regraveled, as does the parking area. The picture of the house on the listing is many years old, and it needs paint badly now. I know it’s a wet environment, but it’s not well maintained. Inside is not real clean. There’s a lot of mold, and a lot of basic repairs need to be done....

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I stayed here for two nights as a part of our honeymoon, and it was absolutely beautiful! The location was stunning, and we loved being able to explore the surrounding area. The scenery alone made this stay memorable, you can see the famous colourful houses along the water front. One thing to keep in mind is that the street can be quite busy with vehicle traffic, so be cautious when walking around. Parking was a bit of a hassle, as there is no dedicated hotel parking. You can park along the road or use nearby public car parks, but it's something worth considering when planning your stay. Overall, we had a wonderful experience, and the beautiful location made it well worth the stay!"
