This property has potential, but there are several issues with the listing that future renters need to be aware of. As of 11/4, the listing hasn't been updated, so we assume that our feedback will not be incorporated into the listing.
NOT OCEANVIEW - We are not sure how they interpret âoceanviewâ, but no guest or Realtor would agree that this unit is oceanview. This unit is located at the back of the property. The only way we could see a sliver of ocean from the actual unit was if we went behind the chair and end table over to the window, lifted and held the blinds (the blinds are broken, so you cannot tilt or raise them) and while holding the blinds up you can look across the street and between a narrow gap you can see a sliver of ocean.
NO LINENS PROVIDED (bedding or kitchen and bath towels) - This was a huge surprise when we arrived at the unit late at night. Yes, if you click on the âView all rooms & beds detailsâ link, you will see the blurb about not providing sheets and towels. Why do you refuse to put this on the main listing? As a result we did not use the pillows or blankets and comforters that were provided because we assume that if they are not cleaning linens, they are not cleaning the provided blankets and pillows between each stay. Ew!
NO STARTER SUPPLIES PROVIDED - No paper towels, and only a small amount of toilet paper left from the previous guest.
NOT FULLY-EQUIPPED - The dishes, pots, and pans were an assortment of mismatched items and the dishes were not even a full set, so we had to wash several times to have plates and reasonably sized bowls to use.
QUESTIONABLE STORAGE PRACTICES - Iâm not sure that I would use pans that are stored in the damp environment under the sink with the cleaning chemicals. Pots are also stored in the oven, so you must empty the oven into the already crowded kitchen before you attempt to use it.
UNREFUNDED FEES. We were told several times that the $100 property fee would be refunded, but as of 11/4, we we havenât received that refund, so we had to resort to a credit card dispute.
Itâs a shame that a few minor deficiencies that could either be easily resolved or at least better communicated in the listing would mar such a conveniently located property. We did enjoy the quiet (only two owners were staying during our weekend) and the close proximity to the public access. It is approximately a mile to the restaurants and grocery store, but we enjoyed the walk and rarely used our car
