-- This property was close to the top of the island and thus away from the busier south-end beach and island commercial district. It is a 5 min walk to the beach. The pic of the beach entrance is 2 blocks away.
-- This property is one of three apartments in the same house. You share a screened-in porch with the other small apt. The screened porch is nice to exclude some of the insects. No ceiling fans on the porch though so it gets a bit stagnant when the wind is not blowing. There are two tables, but only four chairs in the porch for the two apartments - inadequate for potentially 12 occupants.
-- Technically, it sleeps 6. It sleeps 4 comfortably. The living space is small even for 4.
-- If you want a "private" vrbo experience - this is not the place as you see the adjacent renters frequently. When the bigger upstairs peeps come and go and move about, it's noisy in the ground-level space.
-- Trash pick-up is only once a week. The property has only one trash bin for three apartments and potentially 6+6+10 visitors (if you believe the occupancy ratings). On arrival, the bin was overflowing and several bags of trash were sitting outside the bin for 3 more days - stinking - until the pick-up. More bins or more frequent trash pick-up are needed.
-- No dishwasher or washer/dryer in property description is accurate. If you plan on cooking or bringing food back to eat, note that you'll be washing dishes by hand. No sink disposal. They don't provide a 'scrubbie" to wash dishes with, but they do give you soap and washcloths.
-- A/C and Comcast cable work great - no premium channels.
-- The wi-fi login info given us by the rental agency was inaccurate - getting the correct info from them turned out to be a huge hassle so we gave up.
-- This is a beach apt. with no towel racks - not one, not even in the bathroom - weird, awkward, and inconvenient.
-- The bathroom door handle kept falling off.
-- The master bed bedspread had a couple of foul-appearing and foul-smelling stains right in the center of it. We presume from prior visitors having sex. When we called the rental agency about it, they sent someone over right away to take the item for washing. It was obvious (and gross), and should have been seen by the crew cleaning for new occupants. Poor attention to detail.
I would not likely recommend this property. The owners need to "live" a week in the apartment themselves and make necessary improvements. The rental agency needs better quality control.
