The house is lovely, clean, functional. The yard is gorgeous. We feel very safe in the quiet, gated community. Falmouth is very convenient for day trips around the island. Burwood beach and several other beaches are very close. We will definitely come again if we can ! :) Having a car was very helpful as the scheme is out of town. Thanks again for sharing your home with us. ##### Maggie T. Stayed 35 nights in Jun 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Keisha J., laurelton 5 Jan 2018 #### I enjoyed my stay, it was awesome!

It is comfortable, as you walk in you’ll right at home. Everyone was polite. I will definitely stay there for my next vacation! Thanks Carl and Mr. Smith! ##### Keisha J.

The house was beautiful although a bit dusty where u can tell it hasn’t been properly cleaned in a while. But that was an easy fix not much off the issue. The guy who met us at the house however was extremely rude. I’m assuming it was the owners father. We paid for an extra day unknowingly they refused to compensate which was fine. As it was a mistake on our end. But given the fact we had paid for an extra day we were still RUSHED out at 12pm when we still had the following day. And our flight left at 6pm. We did last minute errands before take off the guy entered the home with children (oldest being a 17 year old female) yelling at her and being extremely nasty. Theee was no reason to confront kids. Scaring them to death. And if that wasn’t bad enough he showed up two days early trying to put us out because he mixed up his days. I had to pull out confirmation proving that we paid in order to get him to leave. Which he didn’t do immediately he still sat and complained while making phone calls to who I assume was his son. It sucks because the house was great and I actually planned rebooking for next visit but with the rudeness that would never happen. If you’re looking for a beautiful place to stay with horrible service this is the place to stay.

We found the house very easy of the excellent directions we got from the owner. The house was in a gated community with 24 hour security guard. The house had security fence, gates, doors and windows. There was a driveway for the car behind security. You felt very safe. It had a lovely garden, where we watched butterflies amongst all the flowers. It was very quiet day and night. We appreciated all the channels on the television and the wifi. It was clean. I also was pleased with the returned damage deposit. The property manager was very helpful. I certainly would recommend this place and would stay there again. Laila, Canada ##### Laila A. ---
