Hi,
Unfortunately my family checked out early due to the ongoing foul smell of the unit and lack of response from the rental office. We placed baking soda in the refrigerator which appeared to be the source of the smell. It was obvious that some type of fish or seafood was left in the refrigerator until spoilage. I cleaned the refrigerator thoroughly prior to using and placed a box of baking soda to help absorb the smell. However, the smell did not go away. Someone (either the owner, housekeeper or rental agent) put an "air purifier" plugged into the outlet, which did not help and "plug-ins" were placed in the unit. The plug ins only caused my son's asthma to act up, that forced him to leave early and was very disappointing. My family traveled from California, Charlotte and New York. We have stayed at Wild Dunes at least once or twice yearly for many many years, (>10 years) and this was extremely disappointing in that we have not experienced this previously. I tried on several occasions to contact the rental office and was on hold for extended periods of time, and was not able to reach anyone. The master bedroom when the blankets were turned down had a tissue between the sheets, which prompted me to wash and dry the sheets prior to sleeping in the bed. In addition, the washing machine has a leak and the dryer door will not stay closed.
