Clean, isolated, hot
Reviewed on 2021-07-03 by Joelle M. , Santa Cruz, CA United StatesThere were some really lovely things about this house. It was private, spacious, and had a large and useful kitchen. There were 2 king sized beds, one queen sized bed, lots of couches and chairs. The bathrooms were clean. The laundry machines were great. There were beach chairs and umbrellas at the property. Also plenty of towels.
The rental agency was very helpful. We needed a package delivered partway through our trip, and they stayed late at the office so we could pick it up. The trash wasn't picked up 2 weeks in a row, but when we called, someone came and got it the same day.
They also put us in touch with a company that rents children's equipment, and that was very easy. We were able to avoid bringing a pack-and-play, stroller, beach toys, and a pop-up beach tent because we could rent them.
There were a lot of flaws, however, with staying here. Some were controllable, some were not:
- One review of the house mentioned it having air conditioning. It does have 2 portable a/c units. They are not installed, and do not have the accordions to seal the windows or doors. My husband tried to set them up and seal the gaps with pillows, and while they blew cold air, they were not enough to chill the kitchen/living room area. When we tried to use them, we saw the temperature reach 92 degrees one afternoon. The last couple of days we finally set one up in the bedroom so we could sleep and then we didn't want to spend any time in the rest of the house - might as well have gotten a hotel room. The listing does not mention the A/C, so we shouldn't have expected it. Air conditioning was still a primary reason why we chose this rental and we were disappointed.
I’m out of characters but also reviewed this house on vrbo for full notes.
