Visiting Family

Our stay here was a mixed experience. The positives: •Beautifully remodeled. Photos are accurate *Fabulous proximity to beach, easy walk The negatives: *Property was advertised as having a hot tub, a deciding factor when we booked. There is no hot tub (listing has been updated). *Booked for 9 people. Confirmation email read “Maximum overnight guests: 10” & the listing stated dining seating for 12, leading me to believe that there was flexibility to have a few guests for a trip to the beach. Hours before check in, I received a revised list of house rules stating, “only the parties booking rental are allowed, no parties or additional guests.” This should have been clearer in the listing/confirmation, as I would not have booked this property. *Extra per person charge is $100, not per night, PER PERSON WHO ENTERS THE HOME. *Dining seating is for 7, not 12 *Bedroom 3 does NOT have a double bed. If needed, an air mattress is provided. This is unclear in the listing, & we found out upon arrival. *No sofa beds (only roomy sofas). *5 towels provided for 9 booked guests. *Unfinished bathrooms are adjacent to one another, & the locked pocket door separating them does not fully close, allowing a view of the toilet on the other side. *No paper towels provided *Dilapidated, collapsing property next door, yard filled with trash (not a problem for us, just be aware) *Great deal of expired food in the refrigerator - eggs expired in 2022, mustard expired in 2010, & more.
