We have been travelling to 30A for over 10 years, this was our 3rd stay at High Pointe Resort, so we obviously love the property, location, and private beach. We knew what to expect with another oceanfront unit....amazing views from every room, this was no exception.! Unit had been fairly updated with nicer flooring, kitchen, appliances, as well as bathrooms. Besides this, we had VERY basic amenities. Upon arrival the first thing we noticed was the lack of patio furniture. There were 2 useable chairs, as well as a broken chair, and a chaise. I contacted the owner and he said he ordered furniture at the beginning of summer and it hadn't arrived yet. Said he would contact housekeeping to see if there was any other furniture they could bring up...and never heard back regarding this. A big part of staying in oceanfront rooms is to enjoy the balcony and unfortunately my family of 5 could not do that together. Other issues we encountered immediately were a backed up master shower (that never got fixed so we got to stand in 4 inches of backed up water during our showers for the week), and a broken dryer (which did get fixed mid week). The dishwasher had a broken bottom shelf that was difficult to push back in each time.
Other recommendations for this unit:
-Storage for clothes!! Secondary bedroom had NO shelves or drawers whatsoever. My 3 kids had to live out of their suitcases for the week. There were approximately 8 hangers in the entire unit to hang clothes.
-Hooks for wet clothes would be great for wet beach towels and swimwear
-Beach towels! We are at the beach! This is the first time in over 10 years we have not had beach towels available in our rental on 30A! We flew into town, so don't want to have to pack beach towels for an entire family.
-A hair dryer
Owner was responsive each time I reached out with an issue, that doesn't mean the issue was ever fixed. Did not affect our time in this beautiful town, just would not book this particular unit again.
