We were close to the beach which was nice. The beds were comfortable, and the property was relatively clean. We liked being able to go out on the patio and enjoy the beach breeze. The amount of towels the property provided was nice.
The collection of keys was non-existent because the lock box code was incorrect. We were not able to get in until over an hour after check-in because the owners were non-responsive. Non-responsive is a nice way to put it. My wife and I both were on the phone with the number that we were supposed to call on the reservation, I was texting the property owners, and I was also on the property owner chat page. I had to climb through a window to access the property and allow our family with two kids (aged 1 and 3) and other family members to get in and not be eaten by the swarm of mosquitoes downstairs. Not until after we got in, 1.5 hours after check-in time, were we given the correct lock box code.
There were not enough paper towels on the property or trash bags. For having us be responsible for trash I would think they would provide adequate trash bags.
The property is falling apart. One room has the cracked ceiling falling off. The kitchen cabinets are in horrible condition. The property is not the quality that it appeared to be online in the pictures. The microwave does not work in the sense it does not heat anything. The clock works and that is all. Instead of having someone come and fix it, we were told to unplug it or go to the breaker and do all the troubleshooting for them.
