The house is beautiful and location is very nice. Very relaxing. It had an everything we needed. There was some confusion trying to gain access to the property though. Not having direct access to chat with the host is inconvenient and delayed us in trying to check in. It was also pouring rain at the time so that made it stressful; although no one can do anything about the weather. We would stay here again
