We did not find the beach cottage to be anything we wanted or was advertised. We ended up leaving after only two sleepless nights of our 7 night booking for the following reasons and did not receive even a partial refund:
The inside and outside living spaces were very damp due to rain. Yes, this is uncontrollable but sleeping in the bed was like rolling over in damp sponge.
There were ants in the living space. There was a mouse in the kitchen, which is not suprising since it is outdoors- which was not advertised.
The power went out on Friday night.
The main thing we were looking for on our honeymoon was a secluded place to really relax and have a honeymoon. This cottage was not secluded. There were houses on either side, one with plastic kids toys packing the backyard.
The windows and door were only screnes and you couldn't actually close them. There were people walking past our open "bedroom" window to get to the beach at 6 am! We never felt any reseblemce of seclusion or even basic privacy.
We had to spend additional monies and time to find a suitable place to sleep. The owner indicated that the only way we could receive a refund was if the cottage was re-rented and that it was not. It was, however, used by owner's daughter and grandchild in the mean time.
