Awesome house and location. Loved the backyard. Only thing that went wrong was the alarm keyring was broken so we couldn't turn off the alarm when entering the house. Would stay here again.

First thing when we got there at 3pm checkin time, the cleaners were still cleaning the house so we went for a walk, when we got back half an hour later they just left and all the floors in the house were wet with mopping. We discovered the house to be very dark even with all blinds opened because of the wraparound terrace that blocks all the light. All the windows were extremely dirty like they were never washed with lots of cobwebs inside the house. No BBQ or stove/oven lighters. Outside laundry door was locked with no keys so we had to call them to come unlock it.No washing powder. Some doors scraped hard along floor and overall it was old 70's style house. Old sticky kitchen cutlery that we had to wash before use. Dirty big stain on the carpet in the bedroom with squeaky uncomfortable beds and old soft worn out pillows. No air-conditioning in the bedrooms. Outside was dirty and untidy with a huge 2m high pile of dead palm tree branches and garden waste in the backyard, spoiling the view. With pegs thrown across the long grass. There was no instructions on how to operate the spa just like many reviews mention. After removing the extremely heavy spa cover that was hard to lift even with 3 people we discovered one dead frog in the half filled spa that stunk bad and one live frog crawling out of the murky water. Everyone was saying there is no way they would risk going into that dirty water. When we turned on the spa we noticed that only half of the jets worked and not very good without air bubbles even when adjusting air intake. There was no way of changing the water because there were no hoses so we didn't use the spa at all. On the last few days when the spa started to overflow with rain we placed the cover back on. Only to be charged $500 for damages to spa cover. We left the cover in the same condition we found it and there is no way that we could have damaged it just by lifting it off and placing it back on. We suspect the owner has tried this on others because there are far too many reviews mentioning the fact they were not happy with not being provided with spa instructions. This is my fist time using this platform as I usually use another. I never had problem with any of my stays. I only chose to use it this time because it was about $200 cheaper for this house than other platform but I have learned my lesson and I will never use it again, especially when this wasn't run by private owner but by an agency. We don't recommend this house.

Great property and location
Great property and location
Great property for 3 couples, location is beautiful and a joy to be able to walk and ride bikes arounds the area. only suggestion is maybe a shower put into the second bathroom to make a shower/bath to help after swimming and spa days. And instructions on use of gas oven, spa etc. Fridge door doesn't close properly either. But definitely worth the stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely stay! The house was big, open, clean; the perfect size for us. However, I do have a couple of suggestions of things that would have made our experience better. The reason we booked the place was the hot tub. We managed to get it working, but we would have liked an information sheet with instructions, rules etc etc. The kitchen was stocked with many cups, glasses and plates, which was great. However, we struggled to find serving ware for our meals, as well as pots to cook multiple meals at once. In my previous air bnb experiences olive oil, salt and pepper are usually provided. We ended up heading to woolies for these staples, and decided to leave them for the next guest.
The lock box that stored the key is broken. The button to clear the code has broken off (was like this when we arrived) which made it hard to clear the code. We managed to use a car key to clear the code, but it was difficult.
Overall we had a lovely stay, the kitchen table was incredible, and we had a great time in the hot tub! Thanks for having us.
