We booked this home 7 months before our stay as a private, full home experience for my family. While the home has a nice view and kitchen, the stay was extremely uncomfortable for a number of reasons.
When we arrived, we quickly put our things in the house to change and begin exploring the area. As my family was doing so, my younger family members alerted me that they were uncomfortable as there were two men standing near the street, but inside the property line, and watching. To clarify, they were between the trash barrels and the front door, which is the only portion near the street that provides a full access view inside of the home. Because of this, I urged them to get into the car so we can explore and begin the trip on a better foot. The two men stood their ground as my family paraded by them into the car, and I began to ask what they’re doing as I locked the door. Turns out, one of the two men owns the property.
We then found that owner, and his wife, in or on the property every single time we were walking out, or pulling back in. We felt uncomfortably surveilled for the entirety of our stay, to say the least.
We paid for a private, full home experience, and received anything but. When we arrived we learned the house is split into 3 units (not advertised @ time of booking); so our full home booking just was 1 unit. It also does not sleep 8. There were no sheets or pillows for the pull out couch, meaning there were only 3 places to sleep provided. Not worth
