We recently stayed at this vacation house, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The house is truly beautiful and lives up to the pictures—100% accurate. It's exceptionally well-equipped, providing everything needed for a pleasant holiday. The property manager is also top-notch.
However, there are a few downsides that potential guests should weigh for themselves. Let's start with the minor issues: installing fly screens on the windows would be beneficial due to the location, as there are quite a few mosquitoes and flies. Also, there's no toaster, which might inconvenience some guests.
Now, onto the more significant concerns. The presence of surveillance cameras throughout the property, including the pool area, raised some discomfort. Although the owner assured us that they weren't actively monitored, the "big brother is watching you" feeling persisted. We took matters into our own hands by disconnecting the recorder and covering the cameras.
The most bothersome aspect was the neighbor behind the house. Their dog, already hoarse from barking, jumped at everything. Additionally, the neighbor keeps six couples of dogs in kennels, which bark loudly for 1-2 hours during feeding times and whenever cars pass by. We brought our own dog, and while we appreciated the fenced yard, the typical local practice of chaining and kennels was heart-wrenching.
In summary, the house itself and the property manager are excellent, but potential guests should consider the above.
