Cameron G.

Location was great. It was quiet. Kitchen had necessities to cook. Spacious. Extra beach equipment was nice to have and had a great view. However, cleanliness needs to be re-examined. Upon arrival furniture (couch and kitchen and bar chairs) were covered with crumbs and sand. The fridge also had sand in the door. We had to vacuum and clean all the sitting surfaces before we could sit. The carpets had many stains through out each room which gave the appearance of uncleanliness as well. The trash can lid had all kinds of gunk and debris around it. Other than the vacuum there were no cleaning materials such as: brooms, Lysol spray. The vrbo listing needs to be updated on how to park and how to enter the condo. Had we not started opening doors we would not have known how to get to our unit. Storage door does not shut, we had to slide the table to keep door closed. I hate leaving negative comments however, we should not have to clean upon arrival when there are cleaning fees we are being charged.
