Beautiful Views
The views from Shangri-La and private beach access for the property truly were a highlight of our stay. I was a bit concerned with no lockbox access however, upon our 4:30 arrival, we did find the door unlocked. To our surprise moments after walking through the home the host Wendy took it upon herself to let herself in to the house and brought her dog along with her. She did admonish us for wearing shoes in the house, though I read nowhere in the agreements that shoes were not allowed. She let us know that a water delivery would be happening tomorrow, Saturday with no timeframe given. Saturday when The water truck arrived they let themselves in the private enclosed yard to fill the water tank, with no prior warning. We found the beds to be a bit uncomfortable and some futon style smaller than queens. The bed in the open loft area is definitely very much a part of the house with no privacy. The kitchen was well equipped, and overall the home accommodated our particular group.
