This place had wonderful views, nice outdoor patio space and a spacious living room. It was also very clean which is something I especially appreciate during these times.
The host is very friendly and even sent me a message the day we checked in to let us know a bit of history about the home. He also warned us that the neighbors are sensitive to airbnb renters and that there have been complaints about noise from previous renters.
The night we checked in we used the hot tub on the patio. It also has a great view of the city. We spent our night talking on the patio. The next morning to our surprise were contacted by the host that the neighbors were complaining about how loud we were. He was very professional and nice on the phone but I was very disappointed that the neighbors complained about us when we tried to be quite.
When we left for the beach that morning the neighbors gave us dirty looks and did not make us feel welcome. On the second night we sat in the patio in the early evening and the neighbor above us stood in his window and stared at us for a good 10 minutes. We felt very uncomfortable and that we couldn’t fully enjoy our second night due to walking on eggshells with the neighbors watching us.
I would highly recommend the home for families. Just make sure to stay inside once the sun goes down and be extremely quite. The neighborhood is very sensitive to noise.
The host is very nice. It’s unfortunate the neighborhood is not accepting of airbnb business. It makes it difficult for renters to enjoy themselves as well as the host to manage a business.
