While the interior of the property was updated the exterior wasn’t. This property looked like an old motel that was made into separate apartments. This property is only accessible by using a narrow wooden staircase and is on the second story. The “beach access” requires a two block walk. The access code we were given didn’t work so we had to contact the after hours contact (it was 5 pm). It was cool when we arrived and when we turned the heat on it made the smoke detectors go off. Would not recommend.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you noted the interior updates, but we’re very sorry to hear about the challenges you experienced. We understand how frustrating the access code issue and smoke detector activation must have been upon arrival, and we apologize for that inconvenience. We also appreciate your comments regarding the exterior, staircase access, and beach proximity. We strive to accurately represent our properties and will review the listing details to ensure expectations are clear for future guests. Your feedback has been shared with our team so we can address these concerns and improve the overall experience.
