No frills house in perfect location
Starting with the positive - the location of this house is ideal for anyone wanting easy beach access. It’s just a few steps from the property to a private beach club. The views are beautiful. It’s a quick walk to ice cream, restaurants, and coffee.
Some things to be mindful of with the house. The first others have mentioned - the listing does not disclose that there is an apartment reserved for a family member that shares walls with the living space. The first page of the guest book requested we be quiet so as not to disturb someone staying there. That is the type of information that needs to be prominent before someone books. Had someone been staying there when we were, we would have had zero privacy.
The inside of the house was clean but musty. There was a strong mold smell especially in the back rooms towards the bath house. The bath house was not clean - mildew lined the walls and shower curtain and made showering there after a beach day a pretty unpleasant experience. If you are sensitive to mold like members of our group, you could consider a different house.
These issues and other smaller ones (like any hooks to hang towels!) are fixable. We paid high season rates for our trip and I wouldn’t do that again unless they were addressed. But, the location can’t be beat.
