The home was seated in a small beach community that was close to restaurants & food stores. The views out of the back of house were lovely. Parking was convenient & safe. However, there were a few things found that were less than expected. First after driving 2 hrs to get there, I had to go to the store to purchase a can opener to make dinner. There was an abundance of fruit flies. We purchased electric fly swatters to control what we could. The garbage can had no lid, which compounded the fruit fly problem. There was a four burner gas stove, that only had 2 burners that worked. The light in the closet/pantry didn't work, we used our phones to see in there, especially at night. The home had a metal spiral staircase which was different. However, if you walked on them with socks it was a death trap. The upstairs bath had two shower heads in the shower, but only one worked. There must be a bee nest near the back sliding doors. We killed about20-30 bees that got in through the open door(15 inches) that had no screen. We tried to keep the sand off the deck by trying to sweep with a broom that looked like an old toothbrush. It wasn't real effective. Lastly, we brought wood to have a fire in the outdoor pit area. It looked like it had melted into the sand. We didn't use it due to safety concerns.
