I have a lot of wonderful things to say (and one not-so-wonderful). Waverly was VERY responsive during the booking process. A few days before arrival I asked if I could invite a few friends over for wine one evening and she agreed. I appreciate that she strictly monitors such things...there are other people staying on property (adjoining unit) and she is right to make sure it is a safe, quiet and respectful environment. Upon arrival, our parking was clearly marked. Waverly welcomed us (she lives on property in a third unit) and showed us around. The place is literally on the sand. Standing on the deck feels like being on a cruise ship! The house has everything you need. It is immaculate. The bed is divine. Waverly is available if you need anything but is not intrusive at all. We were there 3 days and never saw another person. The unit is very private, even though it is a triplex.
The only bad thing was that on our drive home I checked my phone and had a series of emails from Waverly detailing the items “missing” from the unit and itemizing the cost of each for which she would be charging me: a bath mat (which she noted on our arrival “tour” was inadvertently not provided), a kitchen mat (which she ultimately found in the unit), and several bath towels (which I never saw and have no knowledge of). Our email exchange lasted several hours and was a total buzz kill after what was otherwise a lovely stay. When I received her first email, I tried to call her to discuss the situation, but there was no answer and her voicemail box was full. I would have appreciated a phone call from her in the first instance, rather than a series of emails, essentially accusing me of stealing used linens. My husband and I are “mature” professionals and we were both very offended by her approach on this issue. Waverly ultimately told me she enjoyed meeting us, had “no problems” hosting us, and invited us to stay again at a 15% discount. This is a nice offer, but one we will not be accepting. We all make mistakes and have bad days... my only complaint is as to her approach on this issue. I am sure there are people who steal from houses. I would have appreciated the benefit of the doubt and a phone call to discuss. The home, however, is lovely.
