Pros- Check in was simple and the host was quick to respond when I reached out. The area is nice and safe; there’s plenty of room to park out front for a rental car. The backyard area was private and a good hang out area but definitely in need of a grill. Inside had nice decor and the kitchen had all the utensils needed if you should decide to cook.
Cons- My first and major con would be the jacuzzi. I booked this location mainly for the jacuzzi and the idea of enjoying it throughout my vacation. There’s no clear cut directions on how to use it, which I had to reach out to the host about. The host then relayed to me that the heating portion of the jacuzzi was off till the end of September due to overall heat (have the feeling it doesn’t work at all). I understand the idea, but it rained a lot while we were there and temps stayed low to mid 80s; even dropped to high 70s a couple nights. It totally negated the jacuzzi, I mean who wants to sit in a cold tub with bubbles? This should’ve been mentioned in the listing or presented up front; definitely felt a little duped. My second con would be cleanliness; a lot of dust and areas that needed cleaning. I went to use the dresser in one of the rooms and stored all my clothes in it. As I began placing some items on top, I noticed a ton of little bugs crawling all over the top portion. Not sure what they were but I immediately removed the clothes and didn’t use the dresser for the remainder of the trip. I would say this would’ve been a massive issue for me but I understand it’s south Florida and bugs are everywhere.
Overall a decent place but not sure if I would stay again without some upgrades being made.
