This place has potential but why are we paying a cleaning fee if the place is going to be dirty, grimy, beds with sand in them and dead bugs everywhere. They need to do better and get a different cleaning service and actually walk the house before guests stay. The fridges barely kept food cold, one of the shower knobs were broken. The single king bedrooms had its own bathroom but the toilet seat was too small. There is a pool that looks new but when asked about it, we were told house didn’t have pool but then they clarified and said yes it does and we could use it. There were also roaches. One of the upstairs rooms was literally a closet and didn’t have an outlet for a fan or chargers. Only 1 bathroom upstairs when we were told there were 2. The dryer barely got clothes dry even after running the cycle multiple times. It was disappointing.

I recently stayed at the beach house at Treaty, and unfortunately, our experience was nothing short of a nightmare. Upon arrival, we found the living environment in a disturbingly filthy state. One of the beds had visible blood stains, and several others were covered in sand with dirty sheets. To make matters worse, there were roaches present, boogers on the walls, and the dishes and dish rags were filthy. Infested pool that didn't even work. Bathroom smells like sewage. Water taste like sewage. We even encountered a broken refrigerator and a damaged dryer. We are extremely disappointed with the state of the property, and this experience has left us with a very negative impression. I sincerely hope the management takes immediate action to rectify these issues for future guests. I reached out to the owner and they never spoke to me again. Stay away from this place. The high reviews are fake.

We rented the house for a family reunion and upon arrival it was clear the house had not been properly cleaned. Everything was filthy, grimy and dirty. Sheets were sandy, hair all over the floors, grime on the walls, dirty drawers, dust covered everything. We saw several roaches alive and dead. The dryer has no heat so we couldn’t dry anything. The AC leaked right on the stairs where you walk through so it drips on you. The pool was completely unusable. The space has potential but it needs some serious TLC.

The property was not directly affected by the hurricane, and the property owner said it wasn't. However, the area as a whole was affected, and we feel the owner could have been more forthcoming with those details. And when we had issues, he said he would follow up but never really did. Having said that, the house was great in terms of clean, all appliances in great working order, kitchen was well stocked with utensils, plates, small appliances, etc. The things that weren't as advertised were the ping pong table, which was unusable, as was the foosball table. There were some other arcade games that worked, but we had really looked forward to the ping pong. The beds were as many as advertised, but some were a bit difficult to use in the layout. One room had to be accessed through another bedroom, etc. But overall, it was a fun experience and we made lots of great memories.

This house is BEAUTIFUL and HUGE!!! In total we had 10 adults, and 7 kids ranging from 1-16.(total of 5 families) We had more than enough space and never felt over crowded, but always felt close enough to be able to be together! My only complaint is it was not the cleanest. My one year old would crawl around and his knees and feet would be black, in the couch had old chips and the light in the kitchen had someone else’s name written in the dust😅 but other than that we absolutely loved it! It was a 5 minutes straight walk to the beach.

We celebrated our family union during Christmas break. Everything was so wonderful. We had plenty of space and beds for people to sleep in. We really enjoyed the big parking space because we were able to play pickleball out there. And the house located at the back where there is not a lot of traffic. We also enjoyed the fact that we can walked less than 1 mile to the beach. Love the place.
