The house is in a great location with fantastic views. It is well equiped. The staff were friendly and helpful. The pool is a great amenity. We loved our time here despite the rainy weather. We had a brief problem with hot water -- the boiler stopped working, and it took about 30 hours to fix is, with a few cold showers in the interim. However, staff was prompt and attentive in making the necessary repair.
