This may be a long read but this was our 13th air bnb in the space of 32 days so we’re pretty well versed in good air bnbs.
So the good… LOCATION! Literally a 60 second walk to the sand and a few minutes more and you are in the full atmosphere of all that Belmont park has to offer. We honestly cannot recommend Carlos home enough when it comes to location.
COMMUNICATION. Carlos sent us all the check in information plenty of time in advance and answered our issues after we’d arrived almost immediately , so we’re really grateful for that. Check in is super easy as well.
The front yard area is sooo nice to sit and eat breakfast or relax in the evening .
The two bikes in the garage were awesome , really recommend cycling around the area, and the surfboard was great too.
Ok the not so good… the pictures on the website need updating. The kitchen is different as are the bar stools . The picture shows padded high bar chairs, but in the property were fold up wooden ones. On arrival the dishes were all in the cupboards but hadn’t been washed so still had dried food on them. The kitchen counters were sticky and the floor in the whole place was FILTHY. However Carlos was quick to respond and offer to get the cleaning crew back to rectify, we declined as we’d already cleaned it by that point.
There was no hairdryer as advertised and again Carlos was quick to respond and had someone drop by with a brand new one.
There is no AC, and although their are ceiling fans the house gets almost uncomfortably hot. But if you open the doors you get a million flies , so a screen door would be a great addition if no AC is going to be installed.
The washing machine knob had been broken by the previous renters but we weren’t made away of that until we messaged Carlos.
All in all I would still 100% recommend Carlos home as the location is wonderful and his communication great.
