The house itself is lovely. There's plenty of room for group of 4 adults and it's decorated with a cozy vibe. Plus, the walk to the gorgeous beach was short and easy. Unfortunately, there were lots of little not-so-great things that prevent me from giving the property a higher rating.
1- The code for the door lock didn't work so we had to call to get a code that did work. Not the end of the world, right? But we had just driven 10 hours, needed to use the bathroom, and had to stand in the dark on the porch until the property manager could help us.
2- I specifically chose the house for the awesome yard. However, my dog couldn't really enjoy it much due to the fact that the bordering yards had dogs who liked to bark. This meant mine wanted to bark back, but there's a strict noise policy that I was afraid that we would break so my dog didn't spend that much time outside. This was a huge bummer.
3- By the end of day 3, there wasn't enough toilet paper in the front bathroom. The was only one extra roll in the whole house.
4- The queen bed in the front room was assembled poorly. Every time my son moved or turned while he slept, it would make the headboard bang against the wall which would wake him up. It was so bad that he decided to cut his trip short and head home after 3 days.
5- The twin bed in the middle room was so uncomfortable that I personally woke up dozens of times every night because my back ached.
6- The grill stopped working on Christmas Day with our food on it. While they attempted to come out with a new tank of gas within a couple of hours, it was too late for our food. My question– Why not keep an extra tank on hand? People like to grill especially when the temps are close to 80 degrees.
7- The kitchen wasn't well equipped with the extras– salt and pepper, sugar, etc.
8- The check out time in the info folder in the house said 11am but the actual time was 10am. An hour is significant on the last day as you're packing out and cleaning up.
As you can see, there were lots of little things that made our stay not the best. While I said, I loved the house itself and its location, I'm not sure that I would stay again.
