I gave it 2 stars for the location, with a private beach and beautiful garden is was really a treat when the weather was nice. Lots of ticks, the garden was not sprayed and it was my biggest safety concern. The house needs a serious upgrade, we were not able to turn on lights in the living room, light was constantly flashing as there is something wrong with electrics, I also got tiny electric kick when I tried to use the switch. Master bedroom had a roof leak and washer and dryer were not working for few days but we got compensated. House is filled with a lot of broken furniture, sofas and armchairs look dirty and are full of holes, random clutter is stuck in many wardrobes so I didn’t unpack my suitcases as I didn’t have space to keep my clothes, oven in the kitchen was not working and one of the kitchen cabinet door fell off on top of me. Kitchen equipment is dated, cutlery rusty... it’s definitely not what I was expecting considering the location and price. If you don’t plan to spend much time indoors, eat out and enjoy the weather - go for it, if you travel off season I would not recommend it.

Very nice place, very warm. Not much lite in the kitchen. Would come back again. Very clean

Not as advertised.Only one full bathroom House needs maintenance . But beautiful property

My wife and I just completed a very enjoyable week at Lilly Hill. This is by no means a typical rental, so make sure you understand the home before booking. The property, on a five point scale, rates a TEN! The grounds are very well maintained (although shrubs at the front entrance to the home were badly overgrown), and the manicured lawn leads to a private beach and very long dock. The magnificent waterfront views and ready access to the lagoon were the reasons we booked, and we were not disappointed. We had a kayak delivered to the beach and used it multiple times daily. The home is certainly not a generic rental home. It is, instead, like a museum filled with antiques. Numerous grandfather (and smaller) clocks (none functioning), dressers, tables and paintings fill the home. You will find a 1970's Life Magazine with Caroline Kennedy on the cover in a bedroom. It is almost like the owner left unexpectedly (40 years ago) and asked you to house sit for a week. The kitchen cabinets and drawers are filled to the brim with "stuff" and many are quite disorganised. Remarkably, you will find Waterford crystal glasses mixed in with more generic glassware, and Wedgewood china and other beautiful plates and dishes predominate (fortunately, we did not break a single thing during the week!). Alas, this charmingly dated and elegant home contained a distinctly musty, old smell that dissipated after a day of airing out with windows opened. The kitchen appliances and washer/dryer were dated but functional. They will need to be replaced if and when the home is "refreshed." However, the deck table needs to be replaced now and the Weber grill was unusable for us, due to severe rusting of the metal grilling surface. The interior of the home was very clean upon arrival. Communication with the rental manager was fine. Finally, there was a serious misrepresentation on the website. Instead of 2.5 bathrooms, we found one full bathroom and 2 half bathrooms. When we called the manager we were told that attempts to repair a non-functional shower were unsuccessful due to Covid. She told me that previous renters were notified in advance, but we were never called about this beforehand. Had we been travelling with another adult couple this may have been a deal breaker. Also: *large, well-functioning fireplace in the living room *excellent outdoor shower on the side of the flagstone deck *excellent Wi-Fi

The outdoor space/patio/grounds were perfection. Even the inside of the house we enjoyed (nothing is new, but everything worked and was clean). One problem, only one full bathroom. Despite that we would stay here again!

The location is prime if you want a water view and direct access to the lagoon for paddle boarding and kayaking as well as walking distance to VH town, which were our priorities. The house is beyond dated with many broken doors and lamps, only one shower with hot water and many electrical outlets that don’t work. The washer and dryer are in the garage, which was fine for us because we are all adults and didn’t need to do laundry more than once. The pictures of the furnishings speak for themselves. !! The kitchen dishes and flatware are gross frankly. We had great weather so spent most of our time outside and had a fun week on the island. Router works, tv works, beds are comfy. Owners: its time for an update.

Amazing view. But the inability for our guest to shower or bathe for the entire time since there was no shower or bath tub on the first floor as advertised was awful. He was recovering from a surgery and we booked the house since it advertised a full bath on the ground floor. We arrived to discover the shower was boarded up with drywall and there was a mold smell everywhere, We left a day early.

The spot with its private beach and private dock is really beautiful. We liked the decoration and « soul » of the place as well. However the house is dated and some furnitures/appliances need to be renewed.

We had the most gorgeous view and grounds! The house is filled with antiques and a lot of charm. If you are looking for flat screens and modern upgrades this house is not for you. We loved it and enjoyed the ambiance! We played bocce and croquet. Beautiful grounds, dock and small beach.

We enjoyed the privacy and the beach with our son. great spot.

The view, the house, the location, the size of the house...
