Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was new and nice, the only issue we had was with the dryer, maybe the vent was blocked but it took several cycles to dry.

Beautiful home/location BUT…

This home was stunning and perfect location (block to beach, block to bay) BUT when we arrived, the linen service had all bedding and towels in kitchen in laundry bags… wrapped… we had to make beds and put out all towels basically set the house up for our own stay. There was also no toiletries or even hand soap in bathrooms. There was no complimentary k-cups for coffee, creamer, sugar - nothing. The home was beautiful it’s obvious this isn’t a vacation rental intentionality bc there was nothing welcoming. I think they’re just renting it out while it’s on the market for sale.
