I cannot thank Le Chateau enough for allowing me the opportunity to travel with my dog. I have a wonderful senior dog that I was unable to leave with anyone. She is well behaved but does not do well, emotionally, when we leave her with other family members for extended periods of time. The interior of the house is exactly as depicted in the pictures. The house is immaculate! They were pretty clever in the interior design. Everything can be easily clean and there are not many decorative items that can be broken. The plate and glassware are quality pieces from Crate and Barrel. The washer and dryer are newer, with the washer being a top loader. Very user friendly!
A few things I would keep in mind for this rental. There is no full-length mirror. To remedy this, I want to the local Target, and for $7.85, I purchased a basic full-length mirror. Immediately upon getting it back to home, I broke it trying to maneuver it out of the trunk. Ugh! Additionally, we worked remotely most of the week from that lovely giant round table, it was a terrific workspace. It could have been enhanced by a tv on the wall next to the table. It would have been nice to have had the tv there while cooking and working. But really, it's just a suggestion. The tv in the back porch/den was sufficient. We cooked a lot while we were there and the kitchen, while not large, is set up nicely. There were no cookie sheets available, so if you foresee yourself cooking, you might want to purchase one.
I was slightly disappointed with was the condition of the backyard. The cabana featured in the pictures, is now torn and dirty/moldy. The two loungers featured in that same picture are both broken. They have been stepped on and now have holes in them. The small, round table outside has chipping paint, so we purchased a tablecloth to cover and smooth out the top. The pool itself was lovely, and the pool guy came by while we were there. The backyard is not as polished as it is in the pictures. A half-day spruce up is really all that's needed to be done and they might be wise to wait until after the construction next door.
Nothing can be done about the construction. Workers arrived at 1 pm playing loud, Mexican music until 5ish. It didn't bother us too much. It will be done soon.
Korey, one of the managers, met me on my arrival and was very welcoming. I cannot thank this group enough for entrusting me with their house so I could travel with Katie!
