"Wonderful place to stay. Linens were rather limited as only one wash cloth per person is not sufficient. I like one in the shower and one at the sink. Also, more silverware is needed. Otherwise, great..."

Wonderful place to stay. Linens were rather limited as only one wash cloth per person is not sufficient. I like one in the shower and one at the sink. Also, more silverware is needed. Otherwise, great place!

Of the seven houses we have rented in port A, we rate this one on top. Ease of check in is excellent. All amenities were as listed.

Only issue, wasn't with the property, but the check in process. It kept showing an error, so I couldn't officially check-in or out.
6 / 10Average·Jul 2020
Overall, it was good experience. Despite hurricane “Hanna” making her appearance, we made the best of our time. When we arrived, we noticed that not everything was as clean as we would of hoped for. For example, there is mold growing within the margarita machine... as well as sand residue left within the bed sheets. However, the rooftop deck views made up for it. This is a great entertainment space, just be cautious of the cleanliness of this property.
