Nice Home - Needs A/C!
Review Submitted: June 30, 2009
Date of Stay: May 2009
Overall, this home has a lot of nice features - especially the pool and huge deck, plus the updated kitchen. Also, there are some great bonuses, like bikes and pool floats, etc.
Unfortunately, those are overshaddowed but the downsides, including:
1. A lack of any air conditioning what-so-ever. This is a huge problem in this house, because when were there in early June, there was little sea breeze. As a result, in the afternoon, tempuratures in the house are often 89+ degrees - as measured by a thermometer in the living room. That, combined with the humidity makes for VERY uncomfortable evenings. The house stayed hot past midnight most nights. Even A/C in a bedroom or two would help provide shelter from the constant heat and humidity. We only ventured upstairs once, but it was even hotter up there. The house also inexplicably didn't have any fans other than a number of ceiling fans (the one in the master bedroom had only one speed - slow) - we had to break down and buy a floor standing fan that we ended up leaving there.
2. The hottub is a nice feature, but much smaller than it looks - it's just very shallow and a bit dated.
Despite these drawbacks, the home is a rather good deal compared to hotels. Good luck!
