Family Fall Break Beach Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location. Property was dated and some maintenance needed to be done but the rental price reflected that. As my wife would say, I am at the beach. Just give me a place to lay my head at night.

Amazing stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were sceptical about our stay before arriving because of reviews on the home being outdated and dirty. Could the home be updated sure, but it is still a great house. The home was very clean when we arrived. The location was great. We spent every single day at the house and never got tired of being there. It fit 4 adults and 4 kids perfectly. We hated to leave. Would definitely recommend booking for anyone with a family.

Very disappointed when we arrived at the cleanliness & condition of the tile floor. We had a baby and could not put him down due to food crumbs on the carpet & broken & jagged tiles. I will say the host was quick to respond and clean & repair as best they could and bought large rugs to cover the tiles so we could put the baby down. It is a great location and although this house has been a little updated it still needs lots of work. The couches are nice but the mattresses are terrible, the beach view would be great but the kitchen windows are so old you can’t see through them clearly. The A/C worked great & the kitchen is spacious. We had 7 adults & 3 small children and had plenty of room. This would be a great house if they would make much needed repairs & update a little more.

The house was so dirty. Basic cleaning that needed to be done wasn’t. Gross stuff on walls, rust on back deck table, dust, clumps of hair next to the bed, used chip bag that didn’t belong to us, trash that was left in the cans, not one area was clean to satisfactory. The entire home was not maintained well at all. It was definitely dated which we expected from the reviews we read but this was beyond that. It was poor craftsmanship that was done, broken tile, stains on carpet, trim that was shoddy work, outlet covers that needed replaced, door handles to exterior doors that wouldn’t lock. The entire home walls, trim, flooring, bathrooms, kitchen, deck, needs replaced. The location itself was perfect, the property manager was kind and responded quickly but the home was definitely not what was portrayed. We would never stay in this home again. I attached a couple pictures of just some of the gross stuff we found when we walked in.

We enjoyed our stay! The house is in a very good location just down the strip, yet close to everything. The house was clean and very comfortable. I enjoyed that the kitchen was stocked with many pots, pans, bowls, all that is needed, ect. Their communication with any of my questions was exceptional!! They quickly responded to me and very friendly! The house is a bit dated, but very clean (which was the most important to me!) I feel like the pricing reflected it perfect! I would stay here again.

Sugar sand beach

We had a fantastic time at the Lotus Blossom. The house was clean & comfortable. The location was fabulous, directly on the beach. We had read reviews so we knew to bring our own chairs for the deck area & beach. It was perfect for our family and we hope to return soon.

We had a good stay. It was a great weekend and the house is perfectly located for our needs. The house is dated but most everything worked. We could feel the house move at times which is a strange feeling. We are not sure if that happens due to the stilts or if there is an issue. It was nice to have the walkway over the dunes next door. The only thing better would be to have a private walkway over the dunes. Access and communication was good. The beach was gorgeous and wasn't super crowded. 3 1/2 stars

Great location.

Amazing beach access. Spacious home, great location. Very minimal kitchen accessories though, not even salt and pepper. All of the beds upstairs were very uncomfortable. Most of us ended up sleeping on the floor or the couch cushions. If the mattresses are replaced/updated then we would definitely book here again.

The only thing good about the property is the location. Shame on the owners for not putting some of the revenue into the house, the mattresses are horrible, the tile floors in the main area are broken and coming up. Can't turn the thermostat below 72 or it will freeze up?? The railings outside are getting rotted so if you hold on you get splinters, and they need a fresh coat of paint, for that much money could they put at least a mid grade toilet paper (1 roll per bathroom) instead of the cheapest. Under the house was nasty with trash and very dilapidated grills, also the deck down there was rotting out. Very disappointed in the property, our memories will be of the properties down sides.The pictures are of the mold in the upstairs bathroom, the master bath wallpaper peeling up and the master headboard on backward.(if they cant do that right, what else is wrong). if you dont plan on letting the renters use the thermostat then it should be posted in the listing. The deck below is a liability for sure. Someone will get hurt... soon.
