Summary: tired property with a difficult host.
The good: The pool and views.
The bad: Everything else. Including a rat by the pool.
Micromanaging: Pages of questions beforehand and 11 more on arrival. A sample: “don’t let meat juice drip on the floor by the grill.”
Poor Basics: No paper towels, dishwasher powder, laundry detergent, trash bags, tissues, soap or shampoo. No apology for this.
A/C not as advertised: A/C is not central, but units in 2 of the 3 bedrooms. Expedia listing does not state this. Also, host threatens to turn off A/C remotely if used daytime!
Possible Surveillance: There are camera signs, but host claims there are no cameras.
Difficult Host: Host falsely claimed having more people stay than we did.
Poor condition: Ants, worn out appliances, no dryer (hang your clothes), loose toilet seat, stained cabinet doors and shower walls, old pillows and sheets, tourist guides to attractions from 2024, random objects everywhere, and the aforementioned rat.
Overcharging: The washing machine door was loose on arrival and fell off when used. Things happen and we were OK to pay something because we there when it broke. I looked up the part online and sent link. Host charged 2.5 times the cost.
Not recommended.
