Very Disappointing
We were locked out of house when we arrived and could not get in for an hour. The house was very dirty including hair and grime in all corners, moldy bathroom curtains and rugs. Dust and dirt throughout, hair in corners of bathroom. Kitchen was filthy with rice on floor and on dining room table. Dirty dishtowel in sink when we arrived. All overhead lights upstairs were not working and no lightbulbs to replace. Ant infestation in kitchen due to food on counters and surfaces. Could not cook or use stove or oven as there was no propane. All batteries in the remotes connected to AC units were dead and no batteries to replace. The AC unit in main bedroom did not work. The WiFi did not work. When we shared our concerns the property manager she and VRBO would only give us a partial refund. We tried to find another house on island, but we were unsuccessful as it was week of Christmas and everything was booked. This was the worst experience I have had when booking through VRBO.

Good value for harbour island
Quaint little house in a good location. Would highly recommend renting a golf cart from Michael’s cycles.. great service:) Little sneaky tip… use your striped blue towel to crash Valentine’s pool or your striped green towel to use the beach chairs at ocean view on the beach, if not you’ll be paying 30$ for rental beach lounger’s from mrs v, which is also a snack bar beside ocean view. Or hang a left outside the house and the beach is about 3-4 hundred feet up the laneway, where you’ll find beach loungers for Valentine’s and Royal palm, pretty much always empty:) The water pressure at the house is sketchy at times as is the hot water. The beds are very hard. But all in all great value for the money:)

Nice Place
Sharon was very helpful. The neighbor across the street is part of the support team and ready to help immediate. Air conditioning worked well. Sharon reserved a reliable golf cart for us and the company made a house call to collect the bill saving me having to track them down. All told a very nice few days

Wonderful home with a lot of history and Island Art
This place was very good for our needs. Clean and spacious. Very close to the beach and walking distance to the shops. It was great to be able to shop for what we wanted to eat and prepare it ourslelves instead of eating out. The caretaker Julie was a dream. Always available and very pleasant and helpful. We love the Bahamas and this trip just made us love it more. Our communication with Sharon was GREAT and she was very accommodating. We will do this again.
