Overall, we like the house’s location, quick access to the beach. However, the house was not very well cleaned before we moved in. There were dog’s poos on the stairs, bird’s poo on one of the window blind, and outdoor deck piled with leaves and sand. No shampoo or soaps in each bathroom, no kitchen tower. When we arrived at the house, one of the toilet is broken and my husband fixed it. The outdoor grill is not working. The communication was poor. I called and emailed the manager/owner on the day we were coming; however, nobody replied. Actually, we found out later that the owner/ manager was living at the house next door, but he never introduced himself even when he saw us. One the island, you either need to rent a golf cart (4 seats) or book the island transit for transportation. We were told by the house manager/ owner that we need to rent 2-3 carts (for 7 people) from him. Each cart costs $65 per day. I almost did it until I found out from another vender that Daufuskie Transit is a better way to transport luggages, and you are not supposed to put any big luggages on the golf cart.
One thing we really like about this island is the beautiful beach. Sometimes, you might be the only person the the whole beach! Another thing we enjoyed is the catering from Ernestine, a local restaurant chef, who made us a Gullah dinner one night!
