Overall, this house is beautiful and accurately depicted in the photos. What they don’t tell you that absolutely should’ve been disclosed upfront:1.) although you’re beachfront, you don’t get to use the house’s beach access directly, you have to use the community gate. It’s right next door, but still misleading. 2.) the pool/hot tub, if you want heated, only gets to 88 degrees and is an extra charge and requires 24 hour notice. 3.) the main floor that leads out to the pool has a VERY loud & annoying door alarm that must be hit EVERY TIME you walk in/outside. There is no override and therefore if you ever wanted to attend the property with all adults and no kids (the alarm is apparently a state law to prevent drownings) and easily enter/exit the main floor living area or poolside area or leave the door open, it’s impossible. Furthermore, you can’t check in until 5pm and must check out by 10am, which is understandable for maid service:maintenance. However when we were there, the following items were broken or not working and required me to contact property managers SEVERAL times before they came to fix:- pool heater/hot tub broken. - no AC on living room floor for first 38-48 hours- the downstairs bathroom shower drain was clogged and required us to pull out a heaping amount of hair/debris that obviously hadn’t been cleaned out in several months
