False advertising

Properly was beautiful but more of a wilderness cabin than a beach front villa. And the coyote notice was sent out 15 mins before arrival. Walk to beach was a 10 min walk through wilderness path the size of a ride on lawnmower. Will not be returning or recommending. Too much money for what you received!

Great view and clean, modern property

This property was new, clean and modern - very comfortable. The view of the water and forest was awesome. We were reasonably close to villages where we could get supplies and attend the many musical events of the Kitchenfest. Hosts were very attentive and conscientious. Highly recommended.
