Disappointing
This property has the potential to be so much better than it is. It took us a while to find it, as the gate with the house name on it has fallen off/been removed so it has no identity.
Sadly the property is poorly maintained and could do with some time spent on it both inside and out. The garden looks unloved (although the grass was cut whilst we were there) and there was builders debris left around outside the property too. Inside, it looked like the cleaners rushed through their work.
On first glance the inside of the place appeared surface clean, but actually it could do with a thorough deep clean (dirty kitchen cupboards & tableware, food on underside of wall units, shards of glass on floor & cobwebs on the walls to mention just a few of the issues). The bathroom door was swollen and was very stiff to open further than half way, and when you did manage to push it open, made an unpleasant screeching noise. The shower room was left unused by us as you had to pass a large patio door and back door which were uncovered so there was a lack of privacy. Also the hallway outside the shower room was stacked with an ironing board, airer, hoover, mop & bucket etc - all very unsightly. These issues and others didn't warrant us calling the 'emergency' number, but overall they made our stay less enjoyable. After all, if it could have been easily rectified, why wasn't it done prior to our arrival?
On the other hand, the inside of the bungalow was bright and airy which was nice. The lounge/kitchen/diner was a good size, had nice tiled flooring and the sofas were comfortable. The furnishings & textiles throughout were of good quality too. As per the description there are 3 bedrooms, with the layouts exactly as mentioned. The bedrooms also contained a chest of drawers in each room, but no wardrobe/hanging space - not very convenient. The beds were however comfortable and the bedding appeared clean.
The bungalow is very close to the beach (it's beyond the houses on the other side of the road) and its just a short stroll to a nice local eatery (Billys). When the tide is out, the beach is lovely and sandy, and you can walk to the Witterings.
If the owners can sort out the niggles, Kalami would be a nice place to stay.
