❓ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q: Does "Entire Property" mean we are the only ones on-site? A: Yes! When you book the 7BR Entire Property, you have exclusive use of the Main House, the Garden Suite, the yard, and the parking lot. No other guests or owners will be staying on the property.
Q: How does the "Double Kitchen" setup work for large meals? A: It’s a game-changer! You have two fully equipped kitchens. Most groups use the Main Level kitchen for large meal prep and the Garden Suite kitchen as a secondary station for drinks, snacks, or a separate "quiet breakfast" area for early risers.
Q: Is there enough hot water for 21 people? A: We have equipped the home with high-capacity heating to handle large groups. However, like any historic home, we recommend staggering showers between the 5 bathrooms for the best experience!
Q: Can we walk to the Village and Grace College, or do we need to drive? A: You can definitely park the cars and forget them! We are a true 5-minute walk (flat ground) to both the Grace College campus and the shops/dining in the Village.
Q: Is the home child-proofed? A: While we provide family gear like a mini-crib and booster seat, the home is a historic 1910 property with stairs and a custom climbing wall. Children must be supervised at all times, especially in the Machu Picchu adventure room.
Q: Is the house suitable for large groups? A: Absolutely. With two kitchens, two laundries, and five bathrooms, we are designed for groups of up to 21.
Q: How close is the beach? A: The beach and Splash Pad are a short, scenic 5-minute walk from our door.
