Enjoyable family vacation

We enjoyed the pool and the beach. The house was more than adequate for our needs. The two dishwashers was a blessing. However, the icemaker in the bar area did not work. We had to buy bags of ice to make our frozen drinks.

plenty of room!

The house was perfect and was very comfortable for my family and friends. We had room to spread out and we enjoyed being so close to the beach. The outside amenities were great with plenty of room on deck. I wish we could have used the outside bar more but the weather didn't cooperate. Don't hesitate. If you have a large crowd, this is the place for you!

Wedding day retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful location right on the ocean. Outdoor pools and hottub were great. Unfortunately the house had many maintenance issues. (Broken sink, jacuzzi tub leaking into kitchen, broken doorknob, blown lightbulbs, broken pool sticks) HOWEVER, management was quick to come by and fix these issues once it was brought to their attention. We greatly enjoyed our stay. We just expected no issues with the amount of money it is to rent the house for a week. My wedding day at footprints on the sand was perfect.

Family Fun at the Beach

Bask Away was great. They were quick to fix every problem. The problems were too numerous to list all of them. A few were broken ice makers and lousy internet connections. The rental company I would rate a 10, but I will not be renting this particular property again. One more thing - after all the taxes etc. I paid almost $16 K for this property. Then they charged $150 for a grill. That is ridiculous that the place does not provide a grill.

Liked: Location
The location and beach access was great! We have stayed in many homes in the past for our big family vacation. This house by far had the most big issues. Had we known about these we would NOT have stayed. Some of the larger issues were: 1. Dishwasher at the island does not work and is not attached.  It falls forward when you open and slide out the racks. 2. Room temperature control was difficult. The baby monitor would record the temperature during the day at 73 F (thermostat setpoint) and during the night the temperature would drop to 63 F. Unfortunately we had no control over the thermostat. This too was also stated in a previous review. 3. Many in our family had complained that the mattresses were not comfortable. My wife and I experienced the same thing. They seemed to be VERY firm. 4. Bathtub in 2nd floor bedroom above kitchen leaks. This leaked into a can light in the kitchen. This too was also reported in a previous review. There is a good chance you have mold growing in the floor space as a result.5. Above the kitchen island is a return air vent with two air filters. The air filters look extremely dirty. The BASK office indicated that filters are replaced monthly. This one looks like it has not be replaced in many months. We were reluctant to prepare food under it because it was so dirty. An odd place to place the return air vent.6. Approximately a dozen more items that need addressed.BUYER BEWARE.

DISAPPOINTED

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We found the house to be sufficient on first look. We were not happy about the non-working oven and stovetop. The two options for ovens were not sufficient for our needs. No grill was available unless we rented one. Some of the light switches were broken and the toilet upstairs did not flush or fill properly. The sink in the bathroom downstairs was not draining properly. The ice maker leaked and the pool motor was loud and broken. The lights around the pergola did not work. I sent a list to Rebecca of the things we found that were broken when we arrived. The outdoor area around the pool was really lovely. The furniture on the back porch could use a good cleaning. Robbie was wonderful, but we were not happy with the lack of ability to speak to a person when we would call the office. You also rebooked it with someone else before we had the chance to consider it. Your fee for reserving is high compared to other agencies. The location is really nice and if things were in good repair it would be a wonderful place.
