Six adults enjoyed our week stay at this rental over Christmas. Overall the house is great—tons of light and roomy living areas. Loved being able to use paddleboards to paddle from the dock to the ocean, and up the canal. Loved the proximity to City Pier and restaurants. Despite the cooler than normal temps the heated pool was very comfortable, and the backyard outdoor area was very nice. Area is very walking/bike friendly.
There were some quirky things though that could easily be fixed to improve the stay experience.
- Doors not closing/shutting well (bathroom off kitchen)
- Light switches in odd locations and some didn’t work (queen bedroom lamp is very finicky and no light switch for light in room at all)
- Blender is very old and didn’t have a seal so liquid leaked all over
- No drain stopper in kitchen
- No garage door opener
- Front yard needs some work on landscaping (seems overgrown)
- Trial size of garbage bags didn’t even fit the garbage can (not even close). Appreciated the larger than normal size can
- Area rug in living area easily gets bunched up and could have a better quality rug like for dining area.
- Desperately need a shade for the side door, in laundry room. Bathrooms did not have fans and was necessary to open door to laundry room to air out… but door window looks directly into close neighbors kitchen sink and can easily see in.
- The queen bed and pillows are quite broken in. May be time for new pillows and mattress.
