We stayed a weekend at Paradiso and it was just as described. The views are spectacular and the house is well laid out, spacious, and very well equipped. Perfect for a group of friends or extended families. The deck is new and it's just lovely. The house is in a great location with beaches and shops only a few minutes away.
The main reasons that I've given 4 stars are that
(1) we were unable to use the main bedroom due to a spider sac hatching prior to our arrival and many small spiders were on the ceiling/floor/furniture etc. Doug (the owner) called me back as soon as I let him know of the problem (which was appreciated) and of course wasn't in a position to do anything at that time other than suggest that we spray the entire room with pesticide. The room is very large (normally this would be a huge plus) and we felt it would be quite toxic to do this. So we didn't end up using the room and instead some of us took turns sleeping on one of the couches. While the spider situation was out of the owner's control, we were effectively left with a 3 bedroom house instead of a 4 bedroom house, which definitely affected our experience, and there was no suggestion of any alteration to the price we paid;
(2) the downstairs bedroom definitely has a damp/mould issue which you can detect as soon as you walk in (the garage does too). We tried to air the room as much as possible but it never fully went away;
(3) Some rooms (e.g., the middle level room) don't have fly screens on all windows/doors and that further reduced the opportunity to maximise airflow (given the upstairs spider situation we were wary of letting more insects in. In summer/wet weather there would potentially be a mosquito issue)
(3) Most things were sparkling clean, however several of us noticed that the windows really needed some attention with many cobwebs inside (sometimes with large things caught in them), and cup/drink marks on windowsills etc.
Overall it was a lovely stay and I think many of the above issues raised are easily fixed and won't be an issue for future guests.
