This house is bery beautiful. Unfortunately, on arrival, all the rooms were very hot and humid. The main dining area & kitchen area were extremely hot and humid and remained that way throughout our stay due to the open design of the ceiling. There were only two fans used to cool off such a large area and there was no difference, when you cook, the kitchen area felt like a sauna. All of us were uncomfortable and sweaty the entire stay.
Also, we had no idea that there would be no tv’s in the entire house. After speaking with the owner, he said, his wife practices yoga/meditation and she wants her guests to relax and disconnect. Had I known this I would not have booked the home, as we had some elderly guests that cannot walk around the beach and would have enjoyed watching movies in the home. The owners live on the property and they had a satellite dish, so they could watch tv but not the guests. This was also not stated in the house description.
The house has two extra bedrooms across from the main house, and those two bedrooms had an unfinished bathroom across the patio. The owner stated that this bathroom would be just for our guests, and we would not see the owner or his wife throughout our stay. When my relatives arrived and went to shower in this bathroom, the owner was there showering in the bathroom. The owner's wife also doing her meditation and yoga in the event area that we rented, which again was understood that was only going to be for our use for the duration of our stay…which made us feel, like we had to keep it quiet so she can do her yoga.
None of the bathrooms had fans and when the bathroom is right inside your bedroom, it was not pleasant at all. If I had known about all of the above prior to making the reservation, I would have picked another house. We never felt like we had the house to ourselves. The owner apologized and promised to make the changes, but it was too late because we were leaving, so this is no use to us and we are paying a high price as if we had all of these accommodations. He offered two days free in return for our trouble and I think, the right thing to do, was to offer some sort of refund. With cleaning charges and other charges, we paid over $500 per night. I rented numerous beach houses in El Salvador and I never had an issue like this before..
