Needs some attention
Our family stayed in this beautiful home in July of 2023. The home was a new construction home and had just began being rented for the summer. Overall, the home was beautiful with lots of amenities to satisfy our needs and was accurate per the listing. The beach chairs, games, and bicycles being on-site were a nice touch! The home was well decorated and welcoming.
What we didn't like. The bunkroom in the basement is where we put the kids. The room is cooled using a portable a/c unit, which did not keep the room cool. We had to go out and purchase additional fans to put in the room to try and keep it somewhat comfortable as the room would easily get above 78 degrees by nighttime.
Also, there was a crab infestation! Every day we would exterminate/catch multiple crabs in the basement bunk room. We found them in there at night as well, which scared the kids, and caused us to have to purchase air mattresses for them to sleep in other rooms. Every morning the pool would have 6+ crabs in it as well that we would have to remove.
The property owner was contacted for this and a couple of minor items. Although responsive, we were told there was nothing they could do about the crabs. There were no discounts or anything offered for our troubles and inconvenience of not being able to use the other "room" in the basement. Also, no bathroom in this room, which would have been nice to have since the pool is on that level.
Overall, beautiful home. Just wish it didn't have crabs!
