Gross

Me and a friend came here for a fishing trip. We came in the first night and there were roaches all over the island in the kitchen. We attempted to eat chips and salsa as we settled for the night and within minutes the roaches were after the salsa. We avoided coming to the house unless it was to sleep as there were no other places to stay on such short notice. We have had to empty our bags outside before bringing them in our own homes out of fear of the roaches wanting to move with us. These roaches were not on the listing as items included in the home.

Somewhat disappointed

Pros: Close to beach, clean, accepts pets, close to Big Store.Cons: Beds were VERY uncomfortable, full size bunk mattresses were the old spring type, with the wooden bunk base it made it difficult to get out of, master bed was hard, we ended up sleeping on the recliners the 2nd night of our stay. We did not try the single top bunk mattresses.Guest bathroom - had loose tiles at entrance with a board screwed down to hold them in place, the door would not shut all the way because of one tile, we removed it and set it aside so we could shut the door, the screws were loose on the board and I got a nasty cut on the heel of my foot from it. I notified the property manager who advised she would have maintenance fix that.Would consider staying here again if the mattresses are updated and repairs made to threshold of guest bathroom.Jessica was very responsive to messages.
