Dirty house on a busy road...?
Review Submitted: February 2, 2009
Date of Stay: May 2008
We stayed in this house last year and I realy didn't want to write the review but I had to. House was not clean when we opened the door. Maybe because homeowner was there before us, I'm not sure. Grill was sooooooo dirty, but we realy didn't have choice, we had to use it. That was only way we could eat something healthy, we couldn't bake. Oven door wouldn't close. We called owner and she informed us that somebody stepped on oven door and it needed to be repaired. House was beautiful but it's right next to super busy 4 lane road, which you have to cross to get to a beach. So you who have children be very careful. And, I know this is terible but we waited on our deposit more than a month..... So go ahead think about it before you book your next vacation. We would not stay at that property again.
Owner's Response: In response to this review, the home had not been totally cleaned yet because the renters arrived before the 3pm check-in. They were not finished cleaning yet. As far as the oven door, I got a new oven when I found out the oven was stood on and had a broken door, I try to repair things as soon as I find out. As far as the grill, the renters are to clean the grill after they use it. It was overlooked by the maids but are now instructed to check that the grill is clean. May is a busy time and we work hard at getting everything right when it comes to cleaning. I have a beautiful home as this renter implies. As far as a busy street, I am close to the beach and everyone wants to be close to Thomas Drive, which is the main street thru the beach. Thomas Drive goes down to two lanes here and there is a grassy area in the middle of the street, which makes it very easy to cross.The house is very quiet when the windows are shut.because I have high impact windows.(2005 built) Very quiet. My location is very desirable. Its a fair value home being that close to the ocean.Its a fairly new home,private pool ,as compared to the ocean front homes without a pool. The deposit was held up a couple of weeks due to trying to locate some missing items the maids could not find. I have had many happy return renters because they love my home. They have come back every year since I bought my home. I work in the travel business and know what people like when they go on vacation. I aspire to make people happy with my home. I can't please everyone but I certainly try to make a comfortable beach retreat to most .
