Simple rental home (needs updates) with a fabulous view and great location
Unfortunately, our vacation rental had some ups and downs, but we tried to focus on the positive results from staying at this rental.
Positives:
-- View from front deck was INCREDIBLE!
-- Patio set on front deck was new and comfortable (would have been nice if the caretaker had inserted the umbrella in the patio table--we had to search for it and install it ourselves).
-- Location in North Rustico was so convenient since we traveled all over the island and used this rental as our home base.
-- Bathroom (only one) seemed newly renovated, but owner should install a handrail for safety.
-- Kitchen appliances worked well, but owner should update the coffee maker since it's quite old and coffee tasted bitter.
-- Beds were comfortable.
-- Plenty of books available in case you forget to bring one!
-- Easy parking.
Negatives:
-- TV remote had dead batteries, so we had to contact the caretaker to replace them (should have been checked BEFORE we arrived).
-- One of the portable A/C units didn't work, so caretaker had to fix it after "consulting" with the owner (should have been checked BEFORE we arrived).
-- Only one window in each bedroom opened, so we didn't get to experience the ocean breezes (the living room window didn't open). To combat the heat, we tried running both A/C units, but our bedrooms were too warm because those units only cooled the living room and kitchen.
-- Beach chairs provided were HORRIBLE! Old and dirty, just nasty! Grill, too.
-- Will not rent here again.
