Unique house great ocean front porch for all seasons!
The house is beautiful true to the pictures. We loved the unique decor and ocean views from the fabulous porch! The kitchen is not designed as well as it could’ve been. Almost a galley style in a large home, lots of bumping around. One refrigerator and two drawer style ones across the island. One sink in the middle of everything, You can’t open the dishwasher and the refrigerator at the same time. Silverware is minimal, as in 7 forks in the entire home. Good thing we only had 6 people most days. One set of plates so if you serve breakfast and dinner you better run the one and only dishwasher. For a house that claims to sleep 10 shouldn’t there be settings for 10? Some ceramic plates and some old plastic ones not really as nice as the house itself. The outside needed attention, empty bottles along the walk way, gum on the outdoor furniture, nothing big, but during Covid I expected more attention to cleanliness outside. The elevator is non working and the door to the lower level is open and dangerous especially if you have children. We called about it. We were told the property doesn’t advertise a “working” elevator. Either way it shouldn’t be able to be opened to the empty shaft with an elevator over your head! Imagine if our kids were little and played hide and seek in there!!! Except for the layout of the kitchen these issues could easily be resolved. Possibly if there was no Covid restrictions we would have eaten our more often and the kitchen wouldn’t be so crowded. Hoping the owners read this, because we would definitely rent again with some minor cleaning and stocking changes.
