Gonna give a very detailed experience of our stay at Bimini breeze.
The upsides:
- Convenient location you can walk to the beach it is about a 15 min walk. There is a grocery store (Publix) about 10 minutes away from the house which is also very convenient when grabbing groceries or snacks. Also a good Neighborhood and located on a nice street.
- Beds were very comfy and everything was clean and tidy when we came
- We enjoyed the salt water pool and it was maintained and cleaned during our stay, we had a lot of fun swimming back there.
The downsides:
- It is important to realize that this complex almost has a motel feel. We were very caught off guard finding out that somebody was staying in the same house, sharing the same walls. Going into this we saw the other reviews saying there were 3 other units but we did not realize how much of a shared space it is and that there is no privacy really at all. Pool is also shared between all the other people. It is also important to note that the other units are right there as soon as you walk out your door to the pool. This was a major downside for us and we weren’t expecting that.
- Another aspect of privacy that we didn’t like was when the host showed up to the place unannounced at 11 pm. It caught us off guard and seemed like an invasion of privacy (especially at that time) since we expect to just relax on vacation and not have someone come randomly. He just walked into the backyard while we were out there and started asking us questions. Nothing wrong if we knew that he was planning on showing up during our stay but unannounced was a little odd to us.
- Pictures need to be more updated. Obviously angles make pictures look different but the pool looks way bigger than it is in real life. Also the landscaping is a little different since the pictures are outdated along with a few other little things we noticed. Would be nice to see a full picture of the front of the house when booking this place.
- Lacking a few extra basic amenities. More toilet paper would be nice, Clorox wipes to wipe down stuff, and a few more garbage bags. We had to run to the store for more toilet paper since there was 2 rolls and 6 of us staying for 5 days.
