Great location, somewhat misleading description
Beautiful property in an excellent location. Three somewhat misleading issues:
1) House, as seen in booklet and instagram but not VRBO, is actually a number of units. This was not a big deal other than if one assumed there was more outdoor seating area than there is (see next point). One might have guessed this but VRBO description does not imply.
2) Living area/kitchen has no fans or A/C. It is reliant on breezes, which sounds good but in reality , at least in July is NOT adequate at all. There are large west facing glass windows and tall floors which made it like a large greenhouse especially in the afternoon but the first day even at 8 am the central living area was horrendously hot. My husband is from Puerto Rico and we are used to vacationing in Culebra Island or PR in August so we know and understand heat and houses not necessarily having central AC but this design , at least this July , absolutely concentrated the heat. There was one large industrial plug in stand alone fan that helped but was very noisy and not a comfortable living solution. The pool was a lovely escape but there was not other shaded area to sit (see above on house being divided). Basically we did not cook or sit in the living area at all until th second to last evening when breezes were strong enough to make area tolerable. 3) laundry- the employees who live onsite did laundry and they were lovely but not the same as in house. 4) first floor bathroom brutallly slippery. Not for seniors/young
