Let’s start with pros: great location. Had everything a family of 8 could want, chairs, boogie boards, a little beach/park just down the road, beach towels, and the kitchen was pretty well stocked. Everything was in working order. The main living room TV was a bit difficult to maneuver and the Sony box was very slow to respond. I recommend a Roku or Samsung Blu-ray player instead, much more user friendly. This property was clean with the exception of the ceiling fans. I used to clean houses so when I stay somewhere, I always look at fans…and these were DUSTY!. Other than this, very tidy.
Cons: almost every communication I received from the rental company, my perfect stays, had some warning about using the towels or sheets. There were multiple signs around the condo cautioning you not to stain their white towels or beware a $250 fine. It became quite annoying to be constantly reminded of this and they didn’t even leave out 8 towels for our party. We were 1 short. We didn’t find their hidden stash under the upstairs bathroom sink until the second to the last day so someone was using a beach towel for showers instead. They did provide black washcloths for makeup removal which was great, something I do anyway, but honestly, I would’ve much preferred the owner to offer less expensive sheets and towels to being on constant high alert about ruining their precious linens.
My other recommendation to the owner would we to check out the popcorn ceiling above the dining table, it’s starting to crack and chip. Perhaps there’s a leak from the bathroom above?
Last recommendation would be to replace some of the pans. The nonstick coating has been scratched and is chipping, making them no longer safe for use.
All in all the place was wonderful. We would stay at this location again, if not in this exact same unit. I would’ve given it 5 stars but the dirty ceiling fans and the constant threat of being fined for misuse of towels brought it down.
