Views were amazing. Pool was lovely. Only feedback would be replace the shower head in the king bedroom suite, no water pressure at all. Put a power point that can be accessed in the main bathroom, the one there is impossible to get to. Put more furniture, chairs out in the pool area. Overall we had a great time, we would return. ##### Julie A.

Bases slatted and have distorted over time This combined with soft mattresses meant you rolled into middle of bed. We actually slept sideways for 2 nights which helped a bit Pool area and paved area bit dirty and could do with good pressure clean Had no wifi for 4 days reported to property manager and they sent someone out to reset. Unfortunately they didn’t stay after 5 minutes it dropped out continually We eventually gave up ##### Phil G.

I must admit that the rate per night is not cheap but it was worthwhile. The place is neat and clean, well-maintained, and everything is in order when we arrived. We really liked the setting - the spacious kitchen, living room, and the balcony. We didn't experience boredom - not a single moment. The family - especially the kids - enjoyed the pool and the view from the living room area. The house is also just a walking distance to the beach. The kids also enjoyed a bit of movie time at the TV room (yes, Internet speed is excellent) with the host-provided streaming subscriptions (Netflix, Prime, etc). We are looking forward to another holiday, and The Blue Whale is definitely in the list of options. Thanks a lot to the host - Holiday Collections - for the beautiful experience. I and my wife have had a memorable 25th anniversary moment. ##### Eduardo D.
