Our week in Jolie Beach had some lovely aspects, along with some rather jarring disappointments. On the plus side, the apartment was well stocked and well maintained; the beach was very sweet, with wonderful access; security seemed good; and Glenda & Ephraim were great hosts/caretakers. We had been forewarned about the very late (2:15 am) jackhammer pounding Monday night party next door, although nothing can quite prepare someone for that experience; however, we were amazed to go through a similar (if briefer, ending at 11:15 pm) pounding on Wednesday night - even though there was hardly a soul in the Rainbow to justify it. I approached Douglas, the Rainbow owner, about this on Wednesday, who said he would lower the absurd volume, but he hardly did at all. Once again, this was not a party situation, so very hard to understand. Perhaps the biggest disappointment, however, was that the owners had listed a clothes washer and dryer as amenities on Home Away, but there was neither, and none on the premises. Had we known, we would have packed differently. We did notify Glenda about this misrepresentation and inconvenience, but we never did hear from the owners about the problem. We survived, of course, and did love the beach and the island, but be aware that the posted washer and dryer do not exist.
