Response from the owner Thanks for the feedback. We do have arrangements with nearby hotels to use there pools and although the tides do mean swimming is not possible at certain times the area does present a magical changing landscape with opportunities to walk to the reef at low tide. Re the mustiness We will get our staff at the house to make sure we air the house more , it's a problem for most beachside houses. We recently replaced all windows to help with airing the house also.
