As an owner of several vacation rentals myself, I am very familiar with what makes a rental comfortable and enjoyable. Unfortunately, this fell way short of either. Let me start by saying that the location directly on the beach was fantastic. However, that’s where the positives stop.

First, the property is currently under construction, which we was not disclosed. Second, although there are 2 bathrooms, there is only 1 shower in the condo. This information was not clearly provided in the description. Third, this is not a private beach, as the description says. There is a massive condo complex right next door, as well as the public beach access. The beach in front of the property was completely covered by 8am each morning.

As far as the actual unit, it was quite dirty with dust covering the fan blades and the HVAC returns. There were dirty dishes still in the dishwasher and sand on the floor. The porch furniture was so rusted that we were afraid to use it for fear that it would break. In addition, any time it rained we had to catch leaking water in buckets. The property was poorly supplied.
