Beautiful property but Missing items
Property is absolutely beautiful and was presented pristine! However, preparation for our arrival fell short. No, coffee pods for machine. No instant coffee except for a couple of teaspoons at the bottom of the canister which looked stale. No sugar. No dishwasher powder or tablets. Had to make a 20 min drive to get coffee each morning. No blankets as alternatives to Dunas which we found overhot.
