Views were amazing, but tidiness sub-standard.

My wife and I spent a week here for our honeymoon. We enjoyed our stay, but we will not be going back.
The overall solitude provided at the property was, as advertised, fantastic. The sunsets and sunrises were beautiful, and the property was very well designed. On first inspection, this is an ideal location for a romantic getaway.
Unfortunately, however, my new wife and I arrived to a property that had fallen into a state of disrepair. The floors and windows were dirty, there were cobwebs all over, the hammock was broken, and the sheets on one of the beds was full of dog hair. It seemed that, on our arrival, the cleaning crew had decided to take a few weeks off. There wasn't even enough toilet paper to last the entire week, and we had to run and get some.
To be fair, we brought some of these complaints to the owners, and they did give us a small discount on our stay. We appreciated the discount, but the complaints mentioned above are unacceptable, especially for a rental property in this price point.
It is very possible that these issues were an aberration (perhaps the cleaning crew really DID take a few weeks off without the owners' knowledge). If the property was clean and kept up better, I would highly recommend it. And it is not like it was unlivable or anything; we still enjoyed our stay notwithstanding the issues. It is more the fact that we expected more for the price that we paid.
