May 26, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful all around With only a 10min walk from the beach, this place was exactly what we were looking for. I will mention that the downstairs renters were disturbed by us being in our balcony at some point which was weird. Also unfortunately the communication between the Renter and their cleaning person could’ve been better. We accidentally left food in the fridge (totally our fault!) but instead of calling the cleaning person to get a response, we wasted an hour going back to find out they already threw it away. Completely understandable, we just would’ve appreciated having a clear line of communication between the renter and the cleaning person. Just wanted to mention that so perhaps the renters future patrons don’t have to experience the same occurrence. At the end of the day I absolutely recommend the place based on how beautiful it was and the location wasn’t inconvenient which is important. Thank you for our stay! ##### Jesska C.

The house and property are charming and well-maintained, with a pleasing blend of clean and eclectic furnishings. We parked our car on site and walked everywhere. Great location.

We were able to enjoy daily walks on the beach, local shops, restaurants and coffee shops within easy walking distance. While The 3 Dux is a charming, older home it is well maintained. Laura, the host, was welcoming and very responsive to our needs. Would love to return next year! ##### lauri p.
