We had a good time here, but I had some significant issues with the way the property was listed. To the host’s credit, they said they will address them. In case they don’t, here's a rundown: The listing prominently mentioned the “Entire Home” was available, and then far down it says it’s a “ground unit in two-story home.” That’s a bit of a conflict. In reality, it’s a two rental unit house, so if you don’t like noise above you, keep that in mind. (Was OK during our stay.) I would have let that go, but there were other conflicts and inaccuracies. It prominently lists “Laundry” as an amenity, but then deep down it says it doesn’t have washer and dryer and that the laundromat is in town. The listing also says “hardwood flooring in public areas,” which sounds nice but isn’t accurate unless you think luxury vinyl flooring is hardwood. It says there’s a garden. There’s not one, unless I guess you consider the beach a giant garden – I sort of do! The listing also mentions a “newly remodeled kitchen,” which is not true unless you think appliances that are 10-12 years old are new. Small things, I know, but they add up. Finally, these units are on septic, which means you’re awfully close to the drain field in this ground unit. The unit also had an odd musty smell, like an old thrift store.That said, the owners took a lot of care in decorating it an old-timey beach vibe, and again, the beach is right there out the door.
