Staycation

We had a 4 day staycation at SS Minnow and the property was great! We really enjoyed the outdoor spaces and the location! Just far enough from the crowds in Port A, but close enough to get to the restaurants in just a few minutes. My family from out of town rented the property right next to us and it couldn’t have worked out more better. We all enjoyed our stay and had the best time !

Port A fishing trip and R & R

This house has everything! Swimming pool, games, grills, bar, tv’s. My new home away from home! We walked our dogs to the beach which was amazing! I couldn’t have asked for anything more than I got out of this rental from New Wave!

Great place!

We have stayed here before and enjoyed it! This stay the cleanliness was an issue upon arrival. Large crumbs on bedside table and garbage under the bed, hairs in the shower, broken glass on the patio left us feeling a bit uneasy. (My daughter actually twice cut her foot on the glass!) I also didn’t like the laminated pages warning of extra charges for things like stains on dish rags, etc. We work hard to treat the home as we would our own and to leave it as we found it or better. The notion that we might be charged an extra $5 for wiping up coffee with a dish rag when we have already paid what I consider a very high cleaning fee is crazy! It seems like there’s a new management company which given the state of the home on arrival needs to double check the cleaning prior to new renters arrival!

Disappointed

Property and location was awesome! We paid extra to have the pool heated and submitted our request two days in advance as requested! The heater was turned on the day we arrived and upon arrival at 4pm the temperature was a uncomfortable 68 degrees. Reached out to property management and was told give it some time! The pool never reached above 70 degrees until Sunday at 9am, the day before departure! So my grand children didn't get to utilize the pool until mid morning Sunday. They left Sunday around 2pm so the pool which was a deciding factor when we booked this property wasn't of much use. Probably wouldn't stay there again for that sole reason.
