Not as rosy as the description!Disappointing. Musty mold and ammonia smell downstairs unit that triggered allergic reactions.
I followed the email checkin directions but they were not for my unit. “Go to the airbnb sign. Door code 7777“, which is what I did but the unit was occupied. I went back out the gate and the host greeted me tersely scolding that precise directions were in the email. The unit I had did not have an Airbnb sign and had a regular key not a touchpad as stated in my email instructions.
Noisy downstairs unit. The ocean view window opens to the stairway for the owners upstairs access. There was no private place to sit outside.
I could hear the owner yelling at her boyfriend. I could hear heavy footed walking upstairs.
That all being said the bed was comfortable. There was a papaya and eggs.
I was able to wash my bedding after the first night to see if my allergic reaction was to the fragranced laundry soap or dryer sheet, but that only revealed the underlying moldy musty ammonia smell that the host dismissed as living in the rain forrest rather than checking it out.
Not as rosy as the description.
Luckily I was able to find a more suitable Airbnb rental for the 13 days remaining in my stay on the island without the smell and commotion.
