This beach house is On The Beach. It isn’t across the road or a short walk. Perfect size and layout for two families. Two bedrooms connected by a small bathroom on each side of the house. Kitchen and living area in the middle. We couldn’t have been happier with the location and facilities. The kitchen is not what I would call fully stocked considering the only measuring utensils are glass Pyrex cups in two sizes. Not only did we not have measuring cups or spoons but when I requested them from housekeeping, they came right out and left another Pyrex glass. When I called again, they told me to go to the store and by a set if I wanted to make the pancakes that I packed ingredients for.
The 1 Star for cleanliness isn’t because they didn’t sweep or clean the bathrooms. This rating is because the walls in the kitchen are covered with filth that looks like it is running down the wall. The base boards and wall under the countertop where the stool are are straight up gross. I used the sweeper to pick up the bit of sand that came in on our feet and noticed these two areas and nearly started scrubbing things down. COVID-19 concerns are not put at ease when there are blatant deficiencies in basic cleaning, let alone sanitization.
The dryer worked great as long as you wipe out the puddle of water that accumulates overnight. That was a mystery we didn’t solve. There’s a large picnic table with detached benches that seated 7 of us easily.
Maintenance was quick to come out and fix a broken step. We were grateful for that. There were multiple other maintenance items that need to be addressed such as a broken floor brace, exposed nails on the storage door hinge, non functioning lighting in the garage area and one bedroom, and a broken bench leg at the table.
The fridge is a little moody-read the directions posted on it.
There is a charcoal grill in the garage and an awesome set of Polywood chairs and rockers on the ocean side deck. Couldn’t love the view of the water more. Seriously, if your goal is to walk to the water, play in the waves, walk to the house and eat over and over till bedtime, this is the house for you.
Despite the cleanliness and lack of basic provisions like TP, paper towels soap and trash bags, we would stay here again in a heartbeat.
