We were guests for 16 weeks (Dec, 2022 through Mar, 2023). Our stay began beautifully but ended badly. Hence the title of our review. The Good The property is beautiful. The landscaping and pool area are lovely. As the nearby beach is OK for walking but not suitable for swimming, we spent a lot of time in the pool. We were very happy with our villa (Toru). We were pleased to have a washer & dishwasher in the unit & a BBQ on the terrace. The outdoor bath/shower was interesting, and luckily we were never on our way out to it when the branches and coconuts fell in from the palm tree overhead! The Bad It was not exactly quiet, thanks to the dogs at night & the roosters crowing under our window by 4 or 5 every morning. This is difficult to remedy, as without air conditioning you need to keep the windows open at night. Ear plugs help somewhat. There were other 'critters', like the geckos, but most annoying were the ants, which were a serious problem, especially in the kitchen. You could not leave food on the counter for a minute without them appearing by the dozens from goodness knows where. The Ugly Initially we found Neil & Maxine to be delightful hosts. They were friendly, helpful & hospitable. However as time passed their spirit of hospitality seemed to wane. On several occasions Maxine made comments that we found inappropriate and unprofessional. For example, she made a point of telling us how high their electric bill was in January, due no doubt to our liberal use of the ceiling fans (without which we could not have survived the heat & humidity). She also commented that a certain repeat guest would probably not be coming this year, as they were not prepared to give him the "sweet deal" that he apparently had with the former owner. As we had booked and made our deposit to the previous owner months before, they were bound by the terms of our booking. However she made it clear that we should not expect such a favorable price in future either. Although we made an effort to overlook these and other remarks, we began to doubt the suitability of our hosts to the hospitality business. The clincher came in the first week of March, when 3 friends from the staff of Moana Sands Villas, where we had stayed for 2 months in 2020, dropped by to invite us to an event. They came because several days before they had left a message for us with Neil, which we did not get. As we spoke with them by the side of the pool, Maxine approached us and announced that we were not allowed to have visitors on the property without their prior approval. Apart from the fact that we were not expecting them, and so could hardly be expected to obtain prior approval, we found this reprimand, delivered in front of our friends & 2 other guests in the pool, very unprofessional. Needless to say, they all quickly departed. I promptly sought out Maxine, who launched into a tirade, chastising us for also having visitors on 2 previous occasions without their permission.
