Stayed here for a family reunion of 12 ranging in ages from 11 to 73. The house itself is great. Plenty of bedrooms and bathroom combination to accommodate everyone. Each bedroom has deck access creating great places to be alone and be together. The kitchen is large with a moderate amount of counter space, 2 dishwashers, 2 fridges, microwave, stove, dual oven, and a large sink.
The dining room table is large and there is a nice sitting area in the living room. The back 3rd floor deck is large and a great place to have dinner as the setting sun hits the other side of the house in the evenings.
The pool is a great size and the hot tub is a nice size as well. The pool table is older and a little uneven but works fine. The shuffle board is scratched up but you can still get in a serviceable game. Downstairs near the pool table is another fridge perfect for poolside refreshments.
All the challenges we faced were with linens, housekeeping, and some missing kitchen items. We arrived to a very dirty dining room and living room. It appeared to have been tidied but there were still crumbs on the countertops, on the living room rug, and in between cushions on the couch. Management company was responsive but by that time we had already vacuumed and cleaned it ourselves. 2 of our beds were missing linens and it took 3 days to receive them. This was during a holiday weekend but the first two times we were told they didn’t have any to give us. In every case, the management company was responsive but the issue wasn’t taken care of promptly.
Things you should know:
-Convenient location but in a neighborhood that is still being built. Loud saws and hammering happened outside our door all week
-Great access to beach but no beach chairs, no boogie boards, no beach towels so bring your own.
-bicycles were great but no helmets so bring your own.
-No pizza cutter, coffee grinder, or seafood size or pasta pot.
-Wi-Fi was decent but connecting to smart tv is challenging. In addition the Wi-Fi connection gets kicked off frequently.
-Backyard sprinklers go off at 6:00pm every night which is pretty inconvenient as that is prime time to be outside using the grill and sitting around the pool. Early morning sprinkler schedule would have made more sense.
Overall, was happy with the house but it was the little things that were unexpected.
