Great location but no privacy with layout

Positives: Pet friendly, kid friendly, peaceful and quiet, accommodates up to six people with a queen bed, a full bed, and two twin beds, plus a futon. Queen bed is comfy. Beach access is just around the corner. There's also additional beach access another two blocks in the same direction where you can take your dog. It's about two blocks from the main strip. There are plenty of towels provided for your use. The playground is very very close. Negatives The biggest negative is the layout. There are basically two rooms. In the room with the queen size bed, a futon, and a twin bed, the shower is pretty much in the center of the room. The shower is glass on two sides, although there are some pretty thick hefty curtains hung around it so that you can shower unobserved. However if you are rooming with pranksters, they can easily pull the curtain back and everyone can watch you shower. You will have to dress and undress in the shower unless you want to dress and undress in front of the people who are staying in the room with you. Also, there is no light in the shower so once you close the privacy curtains it gets pretty dark. While the sink and toilet are in a little cubby area with a door, it is also pretty much in the center of the room. The lighting is also challenging because either you all go to bed at the same time or somebody has to sleep with the lights on in each room. There is a lamp by the queen size bed, but otherwise everyone sleeping in the same area has to agree on whether or not the strand of recessed lights are on or off. The futon is not very comfortable for sitting or for sleeping. Most mattresses feel very cheap and hard. Check in was more complicated than expected and of course someone was parked in my spot. Your only recourse if you need anything is to call or text captain Al. This is a loft, so be aware that there are a lot of stairs. Everything outdoors is a common area with other rental properties around. The rug in the second bedroom really needs to be replaced. If you are over 5'5, you will bump your head a lot; expect slanted ceilings in both rooms. There is very little closet space or storage space for your clothing. Expect to live out of your suitcase. There's also no room for any storage in the bathroom. It's just a toilet and a pedestal sink in a little closet. Temperature control is an issue. If you want it any warmer or cooler, you have to text the owner. There's no way for you to adjust it by yourself.

Not as advertised

Upon arrival no one knew what room we had, too at least half hour to find out. The propertwas no help, he was off to another area. Finally finding where we were to stay, the maintenance person showed us the room. Walk down a narrow walkway, up 2 flights of dirty stairs to the attic. Bare studs were painted, wall were slanted and bed tucked in the slant. Even the person showing it said he was ashamed to show us this place. We did not stay, we loaded back up and went home. Almost 600 dollars for one day and we couldn’t stay in such a place. This place is for college kids for a drunk weekend stay, or someplace to house homeless person, not for a family. It’s rundown and not well kept. Your description and photos of this place is definitely a misrepresentation. You should be ashamed of your company for not checking out places before you advertise them and expect a family to stay there. Your selfishness and just want to profit should be against the law. You profit and the customer losses. Again, we did not stay, we seen the room and walked out. We would like our money back, misrepresentation of this property is an understatement. Profit is all you care about as well as the property owners. You should be turned into a consumer agency. Yes, I did call your company and spoke with an agent as well as his supervisor. They were no help. You need to ask yourself why these people would leave after paying that much.

I feel the description was deceptive, yes there is a hot tub but have to reserve ahead of time and only available very limited hours each day, had to pay to park as a spot wasn’t available, shower in the middle of the main room with just a curtain around it, no lighting in shower, no privacy, ceilings low even my grandsons bumped there heads. It will do if you are just there to sleep but there are much better places to stay

Great location to beach but not truly pet friendly

This is conveniently located right by the beach, just a short walk and you’re there. We loved the location! However, there is a $100 pet fee (which I understand having pet fees) for a property that doesn’t give your pets a place to relieve themselves. There is no grass anywhere on the property. This posed to be a major inconvenience. Also, the ceiling is slanted on both sides… so watch your head at all times. Overall, good property and great location.

Cute and Quaint

Super cute almost like a doll house. Awesome location. Clean,no bugs. Not recommended for tall people at all. We not super tall but I’m 5 8 and my husband and boys are 5 9 and 6 foot. We did keep hitting our heads on the ceiling because of the slant. I didn’t give it 5 stars because one it says sleeps 6 I don’t think if we had 6 people we would all fit and we almost did.And it’s pet friendly which was why we chose it there is nowhere to walk the dogs. No grass you literally have to go across the street and it’s scary at night by yourself. My suggestion is that they make a designated spot for dogs. Besides that it’s cute and quaint for shorter people, but we did enjoy our stay!!!

Weekend

The old Florida cottage was old Florida. It was clean with history and very friendly property management. I grew up in this area and this is what vacation was before all the resorts cluttered the beach. I mis booked our cottage and the manager met me and fixed it without argument. Close to the beach and far enough from south beach that you had some peaceful time off. Would definitely go back and have already recommended to several friends and family.
