We are thrilled to hear you had such a great first visit experience, Trevor! Thanks so much for the compliments and the 5-star review!
When we arrived (missed 4 days due to hurricane evacuation the day of our arrival) the house looked like it hadn't been cleaned at all. In the middle of a pandemic this was crazy. Food in the sink, no floors had been swept, poop on the toilet, just to name a few things. It was late so the following morning my husband went to the realty office. They were appalled and sent a cleaning crew over for us. This was greatly appreciated but shouldn't have had to happen. The house itself is in a great location and the porches are AMAZING. Elevator was nice for carting stuff upstairs although 2nd floor door where you need to take groceries was locked and you couldn't get out. House is pretty dated but worked for a place to sleep. Oh, and the dryer doesn't shut off. Would definitely rent from the realty company again but not the same house.

Hi Ashley,
Please accept our sincere apologies for the unacceptable condition of the home you rented from us. During the pandemic, our phone lines and inboxes have, at times, been overwhelmed by Covid-related inquiries and concerns, which has led to cleaning and maintenance gaps that are not at all typical for our generally very professional teams. We are all working hard to catch up, reply to every message, and resolve all issues. On the upside, we are so happy that we could remedy the problem quickly. We definatley hope to see you again next year!
We truly appreciate your 5-star review, Kerry! It's wonderful to know you had a great experience at The Krusty Krab - #137. We look forward to hosting you again for another relaxing stay by the sea.
