Spacious + beautiful 5-bedroom Mediterranean Villa in Monroe, NY.

Beautiful home!

Overall, a great stay with a well-equipped kitchen, BBQ grill, hot tub, fire pit, and a spacious backyard.The biggest highlight was the fire pit—it was easy to light and perfect for gathering around on a cold night. Both kids and adults enjoyed the hot tub. The in-ceiling speakers were a nice touch and kept the music going throughout our stay.The location is excellent—situated on a quiet street and conveniently close to Legoland.A few minor improvements could enhance the experience:Bathroom clarity: It would be helpful to clearly list the bathroom locations in the listing. One of the bathrooms on the main level is quite far from the living areas. Upstairs, three bedrooms share a single bathroom, which can be a bit tricky if multiple families are staying and prefer separate bathrooms. Additionally, the lock on the downstairs attached bathroom doesn’t work and needs repair.Stocking essentials: The house could be better stocked before check-in. The bathrooms were initially missing soap (though this was refilled a few hours after contacting the host), and there was no detergent for the washing machine. The kitchen also had some expired chocolate bars that should be removed, especially to prevent kids from accidentally eating them.Only one side of the garage was available for parking, as the other half had storage items. However, there is ample driveway parking available.

Big, spacious and clean. The area is calm and shops are within 5 min driving distance

The house was a good size for our family reunion - the pool was the main draw to entertain the children. The beds were comfy, bathroom/pool linens provided. However, the house needs a deep clean and modernization. The kitchen can best be described as sticky and ill-equipped. We could not have cooked full meals in it, but we had excellent catering from Anthony at Taste of Little Italy and Scalia & Co near the local Shop-Rite. The hot water in the showers was variable, and the sinks were slow to drain. We did not use the hot tub and the surrounding patio furniture was broken.
