Reviewer Comments:
The location cannot be beat. Even with two young kids, we were able to pop across the street to the beach with ease, which is the primary reason we chose the rental. We were disappointed, however, with the condition of the condo. When we arrived, we had to address various dead bugs, for example. The condo could use some refreshing, such as fresh paint, cleaned grout, etc. It wasn’t necessarily filthy, but it was disappointing given the price point. There also were ants in the kitchen. Finally, we were disappointed in the tenor of communications we received. While we understand the necessity of informing guests about various ordinances and rules (e.g., noise, turtle season), we were disappointed that the messaging was rather terse and authoritative rather than inviting and informative. As an example, the notice about the kitchen “being inventoried” and guests will be billed if a single spoon is missing, is that necessary? And to that point, it would be great if the condo could provide more in its “starter set” depending on the length of the guests’ stay. A single trash bag? If we have more trash, that means we need to go to the store to buy an entire box of trash bags just to use one or two? Just generally it left a poor impression.
