From the moment we booked, Benjamin & Kim were amazing hosts & maintained INCREDIBLE communication!! My team sought out this home b/c we were looking for a place to hold a leadership offsite where we could meet in-person (our co is 100% remote) & work for a few days. This home fit the bill *perfectly*. With 6 br/ 6 ba, every member of our team had private space w/dedicated bath, yet common spaces were perfect for us to be able to spread out & work. The extra kitchen downstairs was AMAZING to have!!!
For those who are wondering, here are the things that I would list as the pros/cons for this property:
Pros:
* Incredible communication from property host. Whether it was being unsure if we could add an additional guest after the booking (we had an open role we are trying to hire for) or struggling with the remote entry for initial access (it was on us, not the host!), the clarity & speed of communication was absolutely top-notch.
* The home was perfectly clean and tidy upon arrival. Everything was in really good condition and the home is absolutely stunning.
* The second kitchen downstairs and extra set of washer & dryers came in incredibly handy when there were 5 of us trying to get clothes cleaned for our return trips home.
* This may seem like an odd one but the mattresses on the beds were so incredible. We all marveled over how comfortable our beds were and how we were getting better sleep than at home! So incredible, in fact, that I had to reach out to the host to find out what mattresses they were as several of us are interested in getting one for our own homes!
Cons (and there are only a couple and they are relatively minor):
* One area that we struggled with was the wi-fi. Granted, there were 5 of us connected to it pretty much constantly throughout the day. For regular usage, I'm sure it would have been fine. We just had moments where one or a few of us would momentarily get kicked off wi-fi or it would lag. Given that we were there for a multi-day strategy session, that was a bit of a disruption but we also understood that the very nature of our usage was asking alot of their system.
* This is truly nothing that the host can change but the deck area (which is lovely!) is *veryclose* to the next door neighbor's home. While we didn't use the area collectively very often, there was one night that we all sat out and enjoyed each other's company and I was worried we might be disrupting the neighbors.
