There is a lot to like about this unit. The location is pretty great being walking distance to the beach. The beach itself was picturesque! There are many restaurants and stores within a couple minutes’ drive away. The pool area is very nice. The full kitchen was great for grocery shopping and meal prepping. Free, onsite parking was great. And the unit is rather stylish. The owner is relatively quick to respond if you need anything. There are a few things that we weren’t in love with, and could probably be changed easily for future guests. The first issue we had was with our expectation from the listing of there being an early check-in available. Perhaps it’s my lack of experience with Airbnb as we’ve only rented a handful of places, but we believed this was something guaranteed based on the listing. After booking, we found out there is a separate portal where you have to create an account, and it is there that you can add services like early check-in. However, the option to add early check-in isn’t available until the day before your reservation. We promptly went to add early check-in the day before only to find that it was not available because the unit was occupied before us and the full amount of time would be needed to flip the unit. This left us to scramble on where to go and what to do since our flight arrived at 9:30am and we couldn’t check in until 4pm. I reached out to the host for suggestions but never received anything, just a small apology for the confusion. In the unit the air conditioning system pumps super cold into the living room and kitchen area, but the master bedroom and especially the secondary bedroom gets quite warm. We had to leave the doors cracked in order to get a tad bit of airflow into the room where our children slept. In order keep the bedrooms barely good enough to sleep, we had to keep the thermostat pretty low which left me freezing in the living room when my wife and kids all went to bed. There are no extra blankets in the unit, so I usually ended up heading to bed earlier than I wanted so I wouldn’t be freezing in the living room, only to be too warm in the bedroom. If this cannot be fixed, ceiling fans or tower fans for each of the bedrooms could help some. Keeping the bedroom doors open at night for the airflow also was a little problematic because unlike the other units in the complex, the front door of this unit is glass. Not only does this feel strange for privacy, but it also let in a lot of light from the hall and courtyard. The beds were quite comfortable and the linens were nice, but the bed pillows need upgraded/replaced. They are pretty lumpy and rough. Could be some aggressive cleaning due to COVID, but regardless, they weren’t comfortable. I wish more towels would have been provided. The unit sleeps 4, but we were only given 3 beach towels and 4 shower towels for a 5 day stay. I probably could have reached out to the host to solve this while we were there, but we just dealt with it as we had a couple of small beach towels we brought for the first day since we could not do early check-in. In addition, there is a total lack of hooks or racks to hang anything. The unit has one undersized towel bar that barely fits 2 towels. Finding a place to dry 4 bath towels, 3 beach towels, and 4 wet bathing suits was very frustrating, and not conducive for a unit by the beach. The bathroom in this unit is accessible only through the master bedroom. The toilet and shower are in a separate room with a closing door, but the sink is outside of the closed door near the bed. None of this is a deal breaker if you know what you’re getting into. If you have older children or are splitting the unit with friends, this may be awkward. The major issue with the bathroom is that there is no exhaust fan. Coupled with the poor airflow from the AC unit in the bedrooms, this made showers less than ideal. You were almost instantly sweaty when you got out, and the bathroom door had to remain closed or the entire bedroom would be humid and hot. The water pressure was also on the low side which made cleaning the sand and salt off from the beach a little difficult. (On the other hand, the shower at the pool was fantastic. Definitely get as much off there before you go up to the unit!) In the listing it states that there is a washer and dryer. While this is technically true, they are not in the unit. There is a community laundry room and 3 of the machines require $2.00 in quarters per cycle. There were no instructions, no change machines, and the room was so hot I couldn’t stay in there to figure anything out. Upon our arrival, we quickly realized that the floors were extremely dirty. We couldn’t walk in bare feet at all without them turning completely black. I reached out to the host and she recommended using a mop located in the laundry room. I found the mop, but it was very dirty looking, there was no floor cleaner to use, and there was an old rusty razor blade in the mop bucket. I just opted to have dirty feet the rest of the week, which aren’t fun to get in bed with. My wife insisted on wearing flip flops at all times. Aside from the floors, the rest of the unit and the complex as a whole appeared to be clean. For those with small children (ours were 3 and 6), note that the beds are really tall and may not be...
