The views were spectacular! Comfortable, well stocked kitchen and bathrooms. Stylish decor inside and out. Loved lounging on the outside sofa in the all day sun. Spa was an extra bonus. Gas inside fire lovely. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Nothing it was perfect.

The house is beautiful as per the photos. Hot tub is great, as is the outdoor shower. Kitchen has everything you needed and home had a few unexpected extra amenities that I'm sure would be handy for people, like sunhats, sunglasses. Were welcomed with a bowl of sweets. The view is lovely. The BBQ area is also nice. Lovely to watch the sunset from the deck. Very well presented and would be good for entertaining adults.
The Wifi didn't allow any of our devices to connect. Some of the newer technology throughout the home made life harder rather than easier, such as: An automated blind took about an hour to fix the settings on so that we could raise it enough to enjoy the view. The main door was locked/unlocked with a code and it was temperamental - took us 20mins to lock the door to leave on the last day. The TV remote was so complex it had its own manual, and while we understood it, the lag on it was still so delayed that the TV was actually completely unusable. We looked forward to spending time on the beach opposite, but after the kids waded through the water (up to their knees as the current was obviously too strong for swimming) they became very itchy, then my daughter's legs turned red and both kids (m6 & f8) were screaming in pain, we then had to run them back to the house and the outdoor shower. Later we discovered a sign (that was not at the beach entrance) that said the water there was unsafe for swimming due to a chemically treated waste water outlet nearby. Considering the intense pain the kids were in, I think this information regarding the unsafe water should've been in the listing or at least noted for us clearly on the welcome guide. There were also a lot of wasps around the property and our eldest daughter (11) suffered a sting while in the outdoor shower. We still enjoyed our stay - but expected more considering the price point.
