The location of this house is ideal, it’s in a quiet neighborhood, close to the beach, walk or short drive to parks, shops, and restaurants. The house and yard were spacious and clean, and we enjoyed the bikes that were provided. There was a pretty significant problem with the WiFi, which would prevent us from returning to this house. Only 2-5 devices were able to be connected at once, which was really difficult with our group of 8 people and the televisions in the house all being internet-based. The owner suggested rebooting the router. When we did so, the connection would improve for a short time.
There were plenty of plates, bowls, mugs, and glassware in the kitchen. Several other kitchen items were lacking, though, like mixing bowls, baking sheets, a whisk, and hand soap. The refrigerator ice/water dispenser was broken, as was the knob to turn on one of the burners. Fixing a few other things could have made our stay a lot more comfortable and secure; a step to the 3rd level deck was falling apart, 3 of the doors had locks that were difficult or impossible to turn, the master bathroom’s shower curtain kept falling and the drain was incredibly slow, and for all 8 of us to have hot water, we had to carefully plan our showers. The interior doors and steps made a lot of noise, making it difficult to be considerate of those trying to sleep if anyone in the group was awake.
The owner was responsive and sent the property manager out during a holiday week. However, the issues were not able to be resolved.
