Superb pool area and a great place to stay for a couple for a few days but no more.
This place has some real positives and overall we enjoyed our 7 days here exploring Long Island. The sun room is beautiful, and the pool area is great for relaxing after a swim.
The pool house is, however, no more than a room with a bathroom, with a sunroom located above the bedroom. This property would be better described as a room adjacent to a family home. The area for the second bedroom is the sunroom, which has no blinds or window coverings and has a sofa which we used as the second bed, therefore we could not recommend using it as a bedroom at all. The sunroom is only connected to the rest of the pool house via an outside staircase meaning a trip outside in the middle of the night to use the toilet. Plus, the doors are alarmed and make a loud beep when opened thereby ensuring everyone is awakened in such a situation.
Downstairs, the pool house has a fridge - with no freezer compartment - and a microwave. The fridge was stocked with some cold beverages which was a nice touch but, there is nowhere to prepare food, so you will be eating out a lot.
Sunny - the host - was very accommodating. She offered the use of her BBQ for cooking and even offered another room in her house as a replacement for her sunroom 'bedroom', however this overlooked the family room and also had no bed so we made do. Be aware that this place only really works (and would work very well) for a couple.
Also be aware that the family home looks out directly onto the pool area.
