We were unfortunately very disappointed with our stay. Upon arrival the house was filthy. It was very obvious that the house had not been vacuumed and dusted. There were dirty socks and candy wrappers under the beds where my kids slept. In addition, we couldn’t use the BBQ because it was crusty and dirty. The very limited kitchen utensils were dirty as well. We couldn’t even sit out on the terrace and enjoy the weather because the chairs were torn.
The shower door in the master bathroom was missing so every time we showered the floor got sopping wet.
There was no laundry detergent, cleaning supplies, paper towels, and toilet paper.
Several TVs didn’t work, lamps didn’t function, and perhaps most concerning was the antiquated stereo system which was a potential fire hazard. It would overheat and shut down. We followed the house rules by keeping the volume below 50, but the system still overheated and shut down completely.
The house is advertised as having an Xbox, but it is connected to a tv that cannot be turned on.
Lastly, the home owners called us screaming and harassing us after we left because we forgot to move the trundle bed back and we had moved one of the beds on wheels. They also tried to shame us by calling us “dirty and disgusting people” after we cleaned up after our stay, but as I had said earlier the house was filthy upon our arrival and there weren’t any cleaning supplies. We would have been happy to have done a deeper clean of the bathrooms and kitchen stovetop but that is impossible without cleaning supplies. We were instructed to bring our own linens and blankets so I didn’t remake the beds with the linens that were there, assuming that the home owners would want to launder them prior to the next house guests.
This house was advertised as a high end rental, but be warned that it is far from it. The appliances are over 20 years old, and the plastic floor boards throughout the main living area move underfoot. My suggestion to you is find a different house to stay at in Avalon! I repeat, this is NOT a high end rental.
