Beautiful beachfront house in Ballenita in a closed community

Beautiful beachfront house in Ballenita in a closed community

8/10 Good
"My only criticism is that the power for the rental was turned off at the circuit breaker. It should be turned on prior to the guests arrival. I originally thought nothing was working until I noticed the refrigerator was. At the circuit breaker, the refrigerator power was tapped off to stay on and all other tabs were off. If I had arrived at night, that would have been very difficult to determine in the dark. "
