This house is not family or pet friendly. This house is for people who want to cat-sit and be close to the beach.
We booked this place primarily because it was listed as pet friendly and minutes walk to the beach and town- we have two boys and a dog. The description mentioned a cat that sleeps outdoors with a request to feed it, which sounded fine.
The location was great indeed and we enjoyed the town and the ocean. Unfortunately, the house and the host were more than we asked for.
The house, which turned out to be the host's primary residence, was filled with breakable decorations, adult, and personal items. Even though our dog and boys didn’t cause any damage to the house, we were concerned they might. When we raised our concerns, the host blamed us for bringing the dog. Every day we received messages from the host and were told to leave (without refund), to feed the cat, asked about cat’s whereabouts, and blamed for the fact that the cat remained outside. The communication with the host was incredibly tense and made the stay very unpleasant.
Overall, while the location was great and the house was quaint, the host shouldn't list it as pet-friendly and should have prepared properly for a family. Hopefully this review is helpful for others.
