4/5 Good

Traveled with group
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The cottage was pleasant, clean, and well stocked with towels, refrigerator, kitchen equipment. The beach was just a short walk from the cottage. Our flight was delayed. I called to leave a message that we would be checking in late. I left 3 voicemails but did not receive a call back even when we got lost and could not find the cottage. We were not informed about the pool until the following day when we bumped into a staff member. I would stay there again despite minor snaffus.
