An amazing location and beautifully built spacious home. Not a stand out, yet complies to the minimum standard of this high end neighborhood. Though predominantly luxury, we found some corner-cutting unnecessarily annoying and below market compared to past stays on 30a.
- Kitchen…. If you love to cook, you’ll be a little disappointed. Basic fridge cannot fit supplies for 12-15 heads. Low budget electric range and coffee maker. Inoperable griddle w/ missing power cord. Average functioning Chargrill brand gas grill.
- Electronics….no smart TVs or App functions. Select TVs w/ cable require a decoder to manage the remote controls. We eventually got a Roku stick to return to this millennium. No central sound system.
- Amenities / Supplies…Either no or bare min kitchen supplies (garbage bags, coffee filters, dish soap, cleaning spray, napkins, paper towels, sponges, dish towels, spices, cooking oils, etc.). No beach towels or chairs. Regardless of common stated policy (which is just legalese), past 30A homes have still always provided these simple accommodations as they go along way in friendly guest service and convenience.
Punch-line…If I lived in this $3-4M home, I’d invest in higher quality devices/appliances. But if I continuously rented it out, I’d source it to a mgmt company and supply the bare minimum given it’s a high demand cash cow due to location. That’s what you are paying for…. A Ritz Carlton/Trump Tower with Residence Inn features for key components.
