Points forts : Propreté
Points faibles : Communication, emplacement
Pretty house but overpriced, poorly managed and suboptimal location
Bottom line - though the house and views are very nice, this is not worth the money. Bad location, terrible property management. Look elsewhere.
First, the positives. The house is well decorated, the pool is nice, and dock and views are great. The kitchen is well-stocked to cook for large families. There is a good gym nearby (anatomy fitness).
The negatives:
- Neighborhood is sketchy. While there is a hotel down the road, the neighborhood is mixed and there is literally a junkyard surrounded by barbed wire on the corner.
- Location - it is a harrowing 30-60 minute drive to all activities and most restaurants. Nothing is easy.
- Groceries - we paid for kitchen to be stocked. We arrived to rotten produce, frozen meat, and stale bread. Turns out manager shopped days earlier and kept our food in her kitchen (yuck).
- Laundry. THERE IS NO DRYER! The washer leaves clothes with lint and sand on them, and clothes need to be hung up on a clothesline! With intermittent showers, towels essentially never fully dry.
- Security - the property manager gave us an alarm with a panic button on the first day. Later admitted it was nonfunctional - "decommissioned because guests misused it". Did not feel safe.
- Lastly, the property manager, months after we booked the house and our flights. told us they made an error on another site and forced us to change our dates (and flights).
Antigua is a gorgeous place -- but find another house!
