The house is in a great location, very short walking distance to the beach which was essential because we had two elderly and two young kids with us. That said, when we arrived in the evening, some trash cans weren’t empty, there was a sanitary napkin liner stuck to the kids bedroom wall, the kitchen counter wasn’t fully cleaned, the windows were really dirty with streaks on the inside (so this wasn’t a result of the midge infestation), the sofas in the living room were ripped, dust and bugs on the bed frames, and the dining room light wasn’t working. I communicated this to the property manager that night (with pictures, that I still have), who wanted to bring a cleaning crew out that night. Honestly, I was concerned with the cleanliness and sanitariness of the beds in light of the above- which was heightened due to the pandemic. But I was assured that the sheets had been washed. Since we were already in the house and it was late, I asked them to come them next day- midday- while we were at the beach. They didn’t listen and came at 10 am, when we were having breakfast. So my
MIL sent them away. They came back while we were at the beach. I have no idea what they cleaned because the same issues were present. So I spoke to the property manager again who apologized and was going to send a crew out again to clean but I said no because it was quite an inconvenience for us all to be out of the house for a few hours again. The next day, I reached out again to at least get the dining room light fixed so we could eat in that room. I was told the tech would come the next day but the tech never came. I reached out again and the tech came and fixed the light- but by now it was Thursday. Other issues were that the outside shower and grill were completely disgusting and unusable. We made the best of it and my kids loved the close location to the beach which is good but I wouldn’t rent this particular house or use this property manager again.
