This rental was on the more expensive side, which naturally comes with high expectations. The view is incredible, which is essentially what you’re paying for here. So I’ll just list pros and cons for both considering renters and as honest feedback for the property owner/manager:
PROS:
•Incredible view. Hard to beat.
•Relaxing sound of being right on the Atlantic Ocean.
•Small quiet and peaceful town. A true escape from many people. Only a few beach walkers throughout the day, and quiet 99% of the time.
•Big TV with all the best streaming apps installed. Good for nighttime’s when the view is fully darkened (it’s so desolate that you can’t even see outdoors after sundown. Pretty much pure blackness).
•Safe town. Dedicated parking spots.
•Many rooms. Likely great for a larger family.
•Pet friendly.
•Washer/Dryer/Dishwasher
•Friendly host, fast response time.
CONS:
•Bad HVAC. Really bad. A hassle to use, and doesn’t work well at all. Needed maintenance to come on first evening, and it got overly hot. You can’t control individually on the units or the system malfunctions. The baseboard barely does anything in November.
•Dirty. The house was very dirty aside from the clean linen and kitchen dishes/utensils. Filthy floors, and all sorts of grime on the dining room table and bathroom door/wall. Pretty unacceptable for the price we paid. Owner should hire a better cleaning crew and repaint the dirty wear and tear.
•Uncomfortable beds and couches.
•Bad local food.
