Our family of 5 visited for a week from Texas. We rented a car(prepare to drive on the left and be alert)and this was a good choice as we like to be on the go. The location in Castries is great,if you want to explore the island.The view and privacy of this villa is so much better than shown.It has a gate to the drive,you can't see neighbors, it's awesome.You have to be ready to use the a/c only when you're in your bedrooms(it's super cold), the main part of the house doesn't have a/c, adhere to the hot water schedule, the shower is super hot in the morning and evening. Enjoyed the warm breezes through the main part of the house. All windows and doors open across the entire house. It's beautiful. Embrace it and know that's the experience you're signing up for. Yes, the house needs some TLC but it's not dirty.I would suggest getting all new bath, pool and beach towels. They are very worn and torn. Nice consistent towels would make a big impact. I actually liked the French press, after I found a youtube video, it was fun to make coffee each morning. I would provide ground coffee for your guests or make a cute coffee station. I would also invest in some nice soap dispensers you could refill.The dime store soap pumps make the bathrooms look cheap. I would not advertise walking to the beach. It's not a great experience,hard to get to,unsafe feel,nowhere for your towels,rough water.The beach chairs for guests were rusted and broken.Flores is amazing, have her cook a dinner for you!
