The only a few minor negative comments.The bed was way to firm for us, we went to Walmart and bought a memory foam topper for the next night. the other would be how dim the lighting was. If I was the owner I would put lights over the sink and stove for people that actually cook, and change all the bulbs out to bright LEDs and add dimmers so if the resident wanted to lower the lights to set the mood the could. Oh and key the side door the same as the front and have two keys. Otherwise it was a great stay and I will stay there again when I come visit my son later this winter. The decor was so well thought out and fun and truly felt like an island getaway. FYI...The description says it has a full bed but I think it's actually a queen because the full pad we bought was to small.

Squeaky bed was replaced the same day. Refrigerator never stopped running replaced the next day. Suggested they should have a charcoal barbecue they bought one and four days later Eric installed it.
