The living area is open and the porches and sliding doors make it feel quite large. The yard is nice and it is walkable to the beach. We had some troubles with our visit though. In general, the rental could benefit from some better instructions for visitors. There is no driveway and it's not clear where you should park, despite the listing saying that there is parking. We called the company and after about an hour they let us know we should just park in the grass. Then we had some difficultly getting the stove to work; it's a glass cooktop that apparently locks and you must hold down multiple buttons to unlock. The beds weren't very comfortable and the bedrooms are very small. We were only provided with three towels for the entire stay and the property doesn't have a dryer, not an ideal situation. There are no trash cans anywhere beside the kitchen so that means that all bathroom trash must be carried out of the bathroom across the living area to the kitchen trash, also not an ideal situation. This is a nice property but I feel that the company managing it should make some changes to make the property more comfortable for renters. ##### Dusty S. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Carolyn N. 24 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Good but could be great We had a really good time at Sundaze Escape. The house is lovely, just as per the photos and very well stocked with kitchen utensils, crockery, cutlery and glassware. However, a handbook for the bach, use of appliances etc. would have been very helpful. Even turning on the hob was a matter of trial and error! A couple of bedside lamps would avoid the need to read in bed using the torch on your phone. Otherwise a great place to stay. ##### Carolyn N.
