We stayed at this property with a few family members and the overall experience was filled with constant surprises and let-downs.
The House:
The house was spotless and nicely decorated. The naturally cool basement was a nice touch, and the deck was incredibly peaceful in the mornings. The nearest beach is a 10-15 minute walk away.
Check-In:
Be sure to print the check-in instructions beforehand, as there's no cell reception at the property. We couldn't access the VRBO app or our emails, and the Smart Doorbell didn't get a response.
The Fine Print:
- The 4th bedroom is locked and inaccessible unless you ask beforehand.
- The infrared sauna requires an additional charge and prior notice to access.
- The washer/dryer are only accessible for extended stays.
Other Annoyances:
- One single garbage bag available in the home
- Only a handful of dishwasher pods left at the home
- No space at all in the cabinets to store food
While details were “technically” mentioned in the description, it certainly wasn’t obvious. Other reviews have noted similar issues.
Super Slow Wifi:
The internet speed was super disappointing (12mbps/0.5mbps) despite the listing promising high-speed internet at 250mbps. It was barely enough to check emails, or use the VRBO app.
Recommendations to the Hosts:
1. Advise guests to print the check-in instructions beforehand.
2. Follow up to ensure guests have checked in smoothly.
3. Make the listing clearer about extra charges and restrictions.
