Nice home and neighborhood but would not stay here again
There were positives and negatives about this rental. It is a nice home in a nice neighborhood, but we would not choose this property again.
Pros:
- Home is in a nice neighborhood and only a few minutes from Moonstone Beach.
- The home was clean and overall cozy/comfortable. The beds are decent.
- The property is considered pet friendly.
Cons:
- When we booked this stay we chose a property that was pet friendly. We indicated “yes”’we were bringing pets. There was not an option to specify number of pets. We brought our 3 well traveled dogs who have stayed in hotels and vacation home rentals all over. Literally 2 minutes after after entering the property we received a call from the property management company stating the neighbors called the owners to complain we had 3 dogs on the property and only 2 are permitted. They said this would be an extra charge on top of the pet fees and extra cleaning fee already paid. We agreed to pay the extra charge even though the pet fees already paid seem sufficient. They ended up charging more to my card for this than they quoted. This did not make it feel nearly as “pet friendly” as many places we have stayed and it was disturbing to feel we were being watched that closely to get a call within 2 minutes of arriving.
- One of the advantages of a home rental instead of hotels is the ability to cook. This property has plenty of cooking utensils/plates/glasses etc, but there was only 1/2 paper towel roll, an empty foil roll and an empty ziploc bag box. So there was nothing to save leftovers and also no condiments at all. We had to go and purchase these things in addition to soap pumps for the bathrooms since all they provide is hotel like sample size wrapped soap bars.
- The house descriptions makes it sound like the bedrooms are on the first floor and a loft for 2nd story. Due to traveling with elderly parents, was looking for bedrooms on a first floor. Turns out this is tri level and the bedrooms are “downstairs” not on the main level.
- We were told at check-in that there is a landline as cell phones may not get good reception. We got little to no cell service in the home. This should be included in the description.
- The bathrooms are outdated compared to rest of house, showers are very small and the sink faucets in all of the bathroom spray everywhere even if barely on. The water also takes a very long time to get warm.
Overall, not worth the high cost for us again.
