Nine family members traveled to Palmilla Beach from IN & TX to meet up for a summer vacation. Weather was amazing; pantry & garage access were not. Description of rental does not mention locked areas. Had we known, we would have selected another rental. We booked 6+ months in advance.
Plenty of food including cooking essentials & groceries were brought along. Historically, when renting a four bedroom home, there is access to a pantry to store aforementioned groceries. With this rental, the majority of the counter space and drawer / cabinet space needed to be used to store chips / popcorn / snacks / breads / coffee supplies / spices which left little counter space to prepare meals. Large plastic storage containers were sparse for fresh pineapple or watermelon along with meal leftovers so we had to purchase additional ones - which we left for future guests.
The garage access was locked which meant that anytime we came in from the beach or pool, wet towels and sand was tracked in. There were no hanging hooks for wet towels in the entry. Pool floats and shoes congested the entry way along with coolers and towels / chairs / floats for nine. The floor got very slick at times but we managed not to have any slip & falls. I understand if there is a golf cart in the garage only for owner use; but, rather than closing access completely off, build a half wall or add a keypad ignition.
Additional notes on this rental - the master bedroom door is solid glass with no covering on it. When the sun goes down, the neighbors can see directly in the room. The stairs between the 1st & 2nd floor squeak. If you are a light sleeper in the lower bedroom, be warned.
Overall, the finishes in the house are nice and the bedrooms were accommodating.
