Mar 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great view and location View was amazing, beds are comfy, and great location. House could be cleaner, but acceptable. Master bathroom was smelly - seems like it might be a piping issue. Host sent us the wrong code and incorrect phone number when we checked in and we wasted a lot of time to try to get in. Fortunately host was responsive enough through the messaging system. ##### Ervina W. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nick O. Jun 26, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay with great views! We had a fantastic stay in Acacia Bay. Such a nice house with beautiful views. Would definitely stay again! We would recommend adding some appliances such as a BBQ, some oven trays for cooking, some tongs and maybe some cooking oil or spray. Other than that, it was great! ##### Nick O. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022
