The place was cute, spacious, clean, and newly renovated. Quick drive to the beach. Host was very nice. Everything was great except for a bug issue. Wasn’t due to cleanliness, but likely because the outside doors didn’t fully seal. They closed and locked, but there was a visible gap between the door and the frame (you could see the sunlight shining through the closed door).
First night we saw a 3” palmetto bug (cockroach) run across the floor and several tiny bugs crawling on the bathroom floor. I told the host the next morning (Sunday). She said she’d arrange for pest control to come out next day. Saw another roach run across the kitchen floor later that day. Alerted host and she said she couldn’t get pest control out till Tuesday, the day we’d check out, but said her husband would come fix the door seals. Not sure if he came by but the door gaps were still evident. Host told us she’d meet the exterminator there at 9am Tuesday. We left around 10am and no sign of them. Not sure if one ever came. Host mentioned palmetto bugs are common in Florida. Though I just stayed in Jacksonville Beach for a week and didn’t see any bugs in that airbnb.
The place was very nice apart from the bugs. It was not a huge issue, but I personally hate bugs/have a bit of a phobia.
