Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I have been to poets cove many times over the years. My last 2 visits have been beyond disappointing because of the filthy cottages. Back in the day it felt like luxury to stay there. Now it’s just dirty. It honestly just feels so disrespectful to the customers who pay very high prices for these accommodations. The grounds are kept beautifully but once you enter the cottage you feel like the owners of this establishment just don’t care and have zero standards for the comfort of the guests.
