House is pavilion Balinese style and back in 2008 it would have been luxurious however we feel that it is now unloved and it does require a good deep clean. The surrounding gardens are beautiful but do require a lot of maintenance and the pool tiles are falling off on the outside of the pool. The outdoor sun lounges are in need of repair or replacement. Some additional lighting on the back deck would be recommended as its quite dark if you are outside eating a meal. The decorations are minimal and some are chipped and need replacing, adding some new ones to create a bit of warmth to the house would be recommended. The kitchen isn't fully equipped for a large groups with minimal drinking glasses, no salad bowl or serving dishes etc. It was only my husband and I staying but if there were 8 people you would all have to continuously wash your glasses and plates. We own a holiday house and comments always saying how well equipped it is. Our stay was for 5 nights and If you need to use the dishwasher more than once a day this isn't possible as you are given 4 dishwasher tablets. Toilet paper provided however 1 spare roll per bathroom. The oven wasn't working and one of the lights was flickering Wendy did offer to send an electrician to check it which we were grateful. The house has a tennis court however no rackets or balls only the tennis covers - perhaps a check list of all items for the cleaners to ensure they are available for the guests. Overall a pleasant stay with beautiful sunrises. Julie and Phil ##### JULIE B.

Only slight negative is that house is showing a bit of age and does need a deep clean as there are a lot of cob webs in bedrooms but I would still highly recommend this house.
