Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
So nice to be right at oceans edge. Beautiful sunsets without leaving your lawn chair.
Clean but not well maintained
Patio floor peeling, stained.
No little lights outside for ambience
We used a big flashlight
Lawn is not attended to with equal patches of dirt and tufts of grass
A six inch tear in leather sofa.
Occasional chairs purchased at consignment and did not realize they were for children.
Only one smoke alarm, property manager? Brought an installed.
Beds were great kitchen and living space very large so well suited for six.
All lawn chairs very nice
One large pot next to stone wall which is where we looked every night for sunset, completely empty.
Fron door entrance very weak as leaves everywhere, a pot with weak plant in it.
Lastly advertised as two bathrooms
We were a family of six, there is a bathroom with shower between the bedrooms.
The “second” bathroom is at the other end of house, through pantry and past vacuum cleaner and then washer and dryer and then bathroom
Was a small room with a sink and toilet and Murrow.
So if two couples rented this and thought they would have separate bathrooms with showers that could be a big issue.
With family a little easier to work out.
To finish I would like to say over the years I have rented homes mant times, including Puako, many times in states.
The property manager said the house will be torn down and the consignment store was low on stock which is what sofa was ripped.
There were four beach towels, frayed, for not six.
Property manager offered to buy more at Costco.
They were 9.99 for four, microfibre ?
I took these with me so prepared to pay 40 dollars to owner.
Just did not want to leave cash on counter.
My adult kids arrived first takes to WestJet changing our flight and they dealt with property manager, not me
So I emailed michell next day re towels rip on sofa, etc and she never responded.
Added to our booking is fee for vrbo which indicates that vrbo has some control over rental, if not what are wevpaying the extra fees for.
Our holiday was fine, family loved being on water, but it did not meet my standards.
We moved to a small place down the road as family went home..night and day, all the small touches and no surprises.
I tend to not put my comments for readers and prefer to deal direct with owners.
I would not recommend this rental and will nit rebook.
If you have any info as to how rentals are “checked” I would like to know.
Thank you for your time.
