Disappointed
Arrived to find construction work on the building. Was never told this during booking or with check in information. Couldn’t access balcony as it was locked from outside for the first day. Hammer drills into concrete all day every day as they were replacing every section of railing that wrapped around the concrete building. Had to walk under scaffolding with a tarp to access the beach. No access to ground floor patio or grills. Contacted host Alex Jones who apologized. I noticed every other listing for seagate was discounted and had construction warnings on listings. Seagate 306 still did not have any info on their listing. Asked for a solution. A different host, Liz Barrett, then replied with the generous offer to leave the property for total refund of next 3 days and 200 off the first day. Finding last minute accommodations for a family of seven during spring break would have been difficult. Liz replied with offer of 200 off for all 4 days. I asked for 250 and an extra day free with promise not to leave a review. Liz refused this and stated this offer felt like extortion. It was about this time I decided that I wasn’t interested in haggling nor communicating with the hosts any further. Decided to focus on vacation and tried for some relaxation. We made due despite the incessant noise reaching to the beach starting at 8am. Live and learn I guess. Recommend confirming state of property before you rent. Salt Rock Grill was excellent.
