Not a cottage, misleading description, not worth the price
This "cottage" was not at all as described
1) This is not a cottage. This is more like a garage space that has been converted into 2 storied facility. The most important is that the description said 3 bedrooms. It has only 2 bedrooms on the top floor, the 3rd so-called bedroom is a utility / laundry room next to the kitchen that has put 2 single beds in. This 3rd "room" space has no fans or A/C in it and so is a suffocating little space with no air circulation.
2) The description said the "cottage" has a carpet, dishwasher and pantry items, which based on my previous VRBO experiences usually means things like salt, pepper, sugar, coffee filters etc. There was no dishwasher and not a single pantry item, not even dish washing soap or a sponge.We had to wash all the dishes by hand and there isn't even a dish rack to leave the plates / utensils to dry. The toaster machine had a broken switch, There was no garbage disposal for the sink and the sink leaked into the cabinet below it.
3) The bathroom windows had no covering over it, so the apartments behind could see straight into the bathroom. There were no rugs in the bathroom, so after every shower, the floors were wet.
4) The mattresses were all horrible and in bad condition. The description said it could sleep 10+ people. There were only 2 pillows in the house.There isn't even a rug to wipe your feet / footwear when you come in from the beach.
We had to bring / buy everything - garbage bags, paper towels, hand soap for the bathroom, dish soap for the kitchen, toilet paper (I mean what kind of place doesn't provide toilet paper), . None of this is said in the description, except for bring your own linen. We received an email 2-3 days before you are scheduled to arrive telling us to bring toilet paper as well.
Bottom line is that this property was not worth the price we paid and the description was misleading. Had the wording and pictures been more clear and accurate our group would have rented this place.
The 2 stars are one each for
1) location: its 3 blocks from the beach.
2) The landlord's employees (who live right in front) were very nice people and were very nice)
