Service Above And Beyond!

November 1, 2008

Sugar Bay House has been very lucky to have had a great property manager called Peter for many years. Peter has become somewhat of an internet celebrity as word of his great service spreads.

 

Without Peter Sugar Bay House would not be the same! We have a great Peter story that we wanted to share with you.

 

In 1997 (I remember it well as it was the year our youngest son Nick was born) our good friend Karen, and I, and our two boys were staying at the house. It was a very dry period. All of a sudden a major brush fire erupted. In preparation for such an event Peter had set up hoses around the house ready to himself fight any fire that threatened our precious house.

 

Pete ordered Karen and I and the children to evacuate the house. He stayed to fight the fire. It was pretty scary! The fire engine arrived and once the fire was contained  and extinguished ( there was no damage to Sugar Bay House) Karen and I returned. We got the children back to sleep and then all rendezvouz’d in the heart of the house, Harry’s Bar, to calm our nerves! Pete by then had moved on from fire fighter to barman. He was in his bathing suit and was covered with soot. Valiantly tending bar he says in all earnestness “ I’m really sorry but we don’t have any frosted beer mugs tonight”. Well Karen and I just fell about laughing  to think that anybody would even think or care about having frosted beer mugs at the stage was so funny. We were just happy to have a beer! But this story typifies how Peter always goes above and beyond to make our guests  more than comfortable!
