This property has many really positive features. The Good: location is terrific, just have to cross the street to get to the beach, from two different entry points. Can walk to several restaurants. The layout of the house is really nice and the interior furniture is in good shape ( though the kitchen table was sticky). The pool and hot tub- very nice to have, especially when it was chilly out, which it was for our trip. Worth paying for the heater for the pool! The hot tub was non-functional when we arrived; however, Lisa was great and it was repaired by noon the next day. The kitchen is very well equipped- much better than the usual rental. Lisa was amazing, and helped us organize getting groceries delivered in advance, as we arrived Christmas Day.
The Not So Good. The place was not really as clean as we would have liked, or expected. It wasn't disgusting, but it wasn't super clean either. The house in general could use some attention- paint inside and out. The closets were unkempt and disordered, the garage was also a shambles, and there were no beach towels that we could find. The pool filter system was incredibly loud. I felt bad for the neighbors. It would have been helpful to have better instructions for the pool and the hot tub.
All in all, a nice house, but it could be brought up to a better standard.
