Dishwasher doesn't work, back door had to be locked with a ratchet strap (I have pictures). Ice machine doesn't work, 3 out of the 5 beds were broken and screwed back together. Puke stains all over the floor, Air conditioning was terrible, house stayed at 75 degrees the whole time we were there. The lower level looked like a bomb went off, stuff from the previous people just scattered everywhere. We actually had to clean that lower level up and also the indoor area before we actually move into it. We went a whole week with a ratchet strap on the back door to be able to ensure our safety on that door. Will definitely never stay there again!!

The house suited our needs, but not our expectations. It was in much need of repair and updating. The upstairs carpet was terribly stained, the master shower did not drain well, wood was worn everywhere, and everything was in need of attention. We called right after check-in to address the following: 1. kitchen cabinets were missing many pulls 2. the ice maker in the refrigerator didn't work because the filters were clogged 3. the stand-alone ice maker made so much noise it had to be turned off Beach Ball Properties responded quickly to our call and sent a tech to address the issues but could only change the filters in the refrigerators and put on some random pulls on cabinets and drawers. The stand-alone ice maker could not be fixed until the following week.

This house would be glorious if it was well maintained! There were holes in the walls when we arrived. We called about it and a very nice guy came and repaired. 1)Needs a deep cleaning 2)Main floor king bedroom bath needs toilet cleaning. Black mold growing under the rim and in tank. It had to be plunged numerous times to flush.The sinks and tubs don’t drain very well. 3)Carpet in entire house is filthy and very stained. Broken tiles on porch. 4)There is nowhere to put open luggage. No hangers in closets so we bought some and left them there. TV doesn’t work in king bedroom downstairs. No hooks or adequate towel racks in the bathrooms or porch. 5)Dishwasher puts a terrible film on the dishes. Icemaker doesn’t work. Filters on fridges need replacing. 6)There is room for 3 cars in carports if you remove a tree in front of one entrance and do some trimming of bushes blocking the 3rd. 7)The porch would be great if the cushions were clean and not stained. 8)The steps off the porch caused injury to several of us. The repair was done but only for the worst of it. We still encountered more nails sticking up on the rotten steps that didn’t get replaced. Very dangerous! The tile was replaced on the porch while we were there but frustrated with construction while we were paying for a vacation. 9)The bed in the queen bedroom was patched together with Bondo and not attractive. There was a very rusty table on upper balcony when we arrived that they removed but left us with nothing.

Everyone in our group (age range of 5 to 75) had a great time at Shangri La. The beach was clean. The weather was beautiful. The stay was relaxing. The kitchen was easy to use and well stocked with utensils to use and fun serving pieces. We would do this again!

12 of us stayed for a week, 6 adults and 6 teen girls. The house is in a perfect location. It was just steps away from the beach and short drives or walks to restaurants depending on how far you want to venture out. The beach was busy enough to entertain our teens, but not so busy that it interrupted the peace the adults were hoping for. The house in general was perfect for us. Kitchen was where we gathered most often and it was open to the rest of the space allowing us all to be together enjoying cooking meals and playing games.There was plenty of seating between the barstools and nice big table. The two refrigerators were very much appreciated and the ice maker kept up with our needs most of our stay! Both fridges were missing door shelves that made organizing it a little more difficult but not a big deal. The size of the rooms and bathrooms were good enough for us. The house has so much potential it just honestly needs some major maintenance and better cleaning. The kitchen floor had popcorn and dead bugs upon checking in, carpets were really gross. Outside deck boards were an accident waiting to happen with nail heads sticking up and boards warped and splintering. The deck railing was also a hazard as it was not secure in one area. Lower patio space could be so cute but was just a cluttered mess. I don’t mind staying in a place that needs upgrades as long as it feels clean and organized. The house did not feel clean or organized in the least.

This property was perfect for us. Great space and location. Had an issue with some bedding and they immediately brought more and took care of us. Would definitely stay here again and suggest it to friends.

It was very spacious and we loved that it was right on the beach. We didn’t feel it was as clean as it could have been and we did see a couple of cockroaches while we were there. A couple things could be replaced as a few appliances were broken/not working properly. For how much you pay - everything should work and be 100% clean.
