Property was nice
The property was nice and modern. Location was good as it was a short drive to the beach. No sea view though. Unfortunately when we arrived the house had a strong smell of pine wood. The smell was coming from the pine bunk beds in the kids room. We had to have all the window opens and fan going in that room all night to try and deal with the smell which was quite strong and unpleasant. It was disappointing to have to deal with that and effected our quality of sleep over our 4 night stay. Towel hooks in the rooms would make the experience better as would ceiling fans in each of the bedrooms. The pedestal fans provided were inefficient. Overall, it was a good property but some aspects as mentioned need improving.
