Great location and ambience with wonderful views of sunsets and Spouting Horn in the distance. Otherwise, this is a run down house that needs a lot of updates: the second day of our stay (Christmas Day) we tried to cook a meal in the kitchen and discovered there was no gas! The propane tanks were completely empty. Had we not brought an Instapot we would have eaten microwave dinners for Christmas. They rigged a propane tank to the gas pipes so that we could cook for the rest of the week. Even more concerning was the faucet at the back of the house: it broke off when we turned it on! Water started spewing out of the pipe and we could not find the water shutoff valve for 2 hours. As the plumber was off for Christmas we had to shut off the water after we all showered to prevent the backyard from flooding. He came the next day to cap off the broken faucet.
The house is old and in bad need of upgrades. The gas and water pipes have corroded from years of exposure to salt water. We figured there was a leak in the propane system that lead to all the gas in the tanks leaking out. The screen doors also kept falling off their tracks, letting in the mosquitos that ate us alive inside the house, and flies that buzzed around the garbage and food in the kitchen. Finally, this is NOT a quiet house: the waves crashing on shore at night are LOUD, the roosters start crowing at 4 in the morning, and flocks of birds made loud chirping noises. The views are gorgeous and the location is very convenient: walking distance to the Beach House (over-rated and over-priced), Spouting Horn, Botanical Gardens, and beaches; but the house itself is falling apart bit by bit, year by year.
