Potential but lacking

Outside backyard was not clean - dirty sock on the ground and pool unclean. The outdoor kitchen area does not appear safe and or functioning so I would remove that from the description. The AC couldn’t keep the house cold - prolly cause of heat wave and 3 stories. House interior layout worked well for our group of 14 - just be prepared to climb some stairs. The interior of the house was clean but a bit sad. I would recommend this house for an adult gathering but not the best fit for families.

It works great

We thought the house was great, very spacious. Lots of rooms. Kitchen is on 3rd floor so taking food up sucked. I never received my code for door on app. The cleaning lady was there when i arrived so i got the owners on phone to tell me she was a lil late no big deal but my code was never received. I also never got a response to my text it said to text or call a number and i texted i was missing pillow sheets in one room but never got a respinse. Also the drier machine doesnt work. I kinda realized when cleaning lady said i gotta go get towels and it wasnt in the property. Just didnt put one and one together till we tried drying our laundry. Besides those small things the house works amazing is a short drive to beach. Not so short of a walk or we just never found how to get there through the neighborhood. Get a golf cart its worth it.

Could be better

The Big Blue House is a beautiful vacation home. The house is spacious, offers a private pool, and is close to the beach and our favorite shops. When you arrive, you are met with sufficient parking spaces for the whole family and excitement to explore the multiple floors of the house. Although the house has a lot of positive attributes, my family and I were met with problems during our stay. Before I list some of the issues we encountered, this is our second time staying in the house, and it was very disappointing that some of the problems from the first time remain.The first and foremost issue that my family and I struggled with the most was the warm temperature of the house. When we tried to lower the temperature, the system would immediately increase to 78. After a long day at the beach, the last thing you want is a warm house. Many of our family members slept on the sofas instead of the beds because the rooms were especially warm. Aside from the AC, some other things we disliked were that the pool was foggy due to too much chlorine, the bathroom downstairs needed the shower curtain to be swapped, some dishes were dirty before first usage, the blender did not work, internet connection was weak, and the city trash can was full before our arrival. Despite these issues, we were impressed by the owners' quick response to our needs, such as sending a new blender and broom. This home has a lot of potential, and we have made many cherished memories here.
