The home is a beautiful home, it directly in front of the lagoon which I thought it was but still with direct lagoon accesses. However the house itself was very stiff. Almost all the furniture is hard and just there for looks. The exterior of the home was also not cleaned with trash on balconies. The home itself is poorly built with build up in shower heads and faucets loose in the wall to the point we were scared to use them. We did reach out to the host and they offered to fix it but not really interested in a crew coming in mid stay. I would not stay here again.
