We enjoyed our weeklong stay along with a few friends. The home was actually perfect for our needs in many ways.
The positives:
The view is amazing, directly on the beach with beautiful sunrises.
There is ample seating on the patios to really just sit and enjoy the peace of the ocean.
Since we only had 5 guests, the orientation of the bedrooms worked well and allowed all couples/ parties to have their own bathroom as well as privacy. If you have someone staying in all of the bedrooms, some parties will have to share bathrooms downstairs.
The kitchen was well stocked with all of the cooking items we needed and was roomy enough for multiple ppl to be in there at once without feeling crowded.
There are TVs in all of the bedrooms and in the main living area, with cable provided.
The high speed internet allowed all of us access adequately.
Parking is great for up to 4 average size vehicles under the home.
Stairs outside leading up to the home are a bit narrow and steep, but completely doable. Stairs inside the home are wider and more gradual.
The location is great, perfectly located close to several shops, restaurants, bars, the pier, etc.
The home was very clean upon our arrival.
The dining table was perfect for our needs, although we ate outside often to enjoy the view.
It was great to have access to a washer and dryer during our stay, but you must remember to bring detergent, etc.
All closets had plenty of hangers and dressers had great storage.
Appliances were in good condition and clean.
The private beach access was wonderful.
The decor was cute and fun.
The areas for improvement:
When we arrived, there was NO toilet paper in any of the bathrooms, nor was there any hand soap/ dish soap for any handwashing. Luckily we brought lots of these items ourselves in preparation for this, but it would have been nice if anything at all had been provided upon our initial arrival (even one roll per bathroom would have been great). We left rolls behind on our departure as a courtesy, hopefully they were not collected by the management.
There also was no dishwasher detergent, which is surprising as one of the departure requirements is to run the dishwasher. We had to go purchase this and we left some behind for other guests as a courtesy. Hopefully this was not collected by the management.
There was only one large garbage bag provided and for guests staying all week long, more than one load of trash will be produced. We had to go out and purchase our own bags.
There was one roll of paper towels, but NO hand towels were provided in the kitchen.
The bed in the master where we slept was HORRIBLY uncomfortable and loud. There was only a mattress with no box spring and it was just directly on the wood bedframe. This was a huge disappointment and we would not stay here again just for this reason alone.
If you are not picky about these things, honestly the home is lovely otherwise.
