Summary: This house is exactly as described. We loved many aspects of this house: the lanai, the walkway to the cliffs behind the house, the outdoor shower, the spaciousness & layout of the home, and the view / location. It is in a residential area, so it is mostly quiet. The tree frogs did talk most of the time, but it became relaxing. Yes, there was a free-range rooster that sang to us in the morning, but it wasn't too bad. It did not hinder our stay. Yes, the cliffs do attract a few locals throughout the day, but they are quiet. We didn't notice any loud noises during our stay. Overall, we all loved this house.
