Light bulb out in the family bathroom and light bulb out in the ensuite, did mention it for maintenance but not a problem that needed attending while we were there - just for future.

Spotlessly clean and spacious. Very well equipped. It overlooked the bay of South Sands. We had a most enjoyable week. Thank you for making our week relaxing.
