4 Reviews of Property 360649 in Great Exuma, Bahamas

Owner's Response: Hmmm, this is interesting. I have received this response 6 months after the guests’ vacation! But nothing had been communicated to me in the meantime. The people referred to as (Mick & Angie), whom complimentary remarks have been made, are the same people who look after, clean and prepare the house prior to guests arriving. Therefore we find it is rather surprising and difficult to believe, that a dead rat was there to greet the guests upon arrival. Having not been there in person upon their arrival, and no previous complaints of the house being 'dirty' as Mick & Angie clean the house prior to any rental, would suggest questioning the expectation and definition of cleanliness. The thickness of the walls and the design of the interior, upper level, walls not reaching the ceiling (because of the building design) are remarks that I find difficult to comprehend as an issue, because the whole house was available and one couple could use the downstairs bedroom, (3 double bedrooms in total) to ensure 'increased privacy' for both couples. The water supplied to the house is from a well that is cut from lime stone, and yes we do get lime scale deposits building up, but these are treated regularly, therefore the remark 'encrusted' in my view is an exaggeration. The smell that has been referred to is the smell of the very low level of sulphur (from the well water), and once the water has been running through taps and toilet used for a very short period upon initial use/arrival, it dissipates quickly, as the well water is supplemented with rainwater captured from the rain harvester. However, the point is noted and the on-going challenge of keeping a home in the tropics continues with joy and a smile. I am very glad that they found the location, place, and house beautiful, as everyone does, and that issues referred to about cleanliness are noted. However, It is a shame that the guest did not contact me directly to discuss this, opposed to posting their review 6 months after their vacation.
