Perfect vacation home for our family of 4 and our frenchie. The pool was the perfect size and we loved the under deck space for relaxing and cooking. The outdoor shower was such a cool additional also! The storage room downstairs is full of pool toys and outdoor games that also came in handy. And it’s the shortest 2 block walk to the beach. We will def be back!

Terrible smells! Strong mold smell in downstairs bedroom. Strong paint/turpentine smell from area next to that bedroom. Horrible, horrible stench throughout house. Like human waste. Googled “sauerkraut” smell. Discovered it is most likely a damaged toilet seal or damaged vent to remove methane gas from plumbing. Or maybe a dead animal in the walls. Or maybe an HVAC problem. NOT a fun vacation smell! The first night it woke us up. The second night I couldn’t even fall asleep until after 5amAs a side note, the front door was OPEN when we arrived.

Thank you for sharing this. I’m very sorry your stay at SAC475 - Salty Air Cottage 475 fell so far short of expectations. I’ve escalated your reservation to our operations team and the owner for immediate review. Actions we are taking now: - Open a priority inspection of the unit to verify the odor sources you described (downstairs bedroom, adjacent area, and whole‑house smell). - Dispatch licensed HVAC and plumbing technicians to test for sewer gas, damaged toilet seals/traps, venting issues, and to inspect the HVAC for contamination or VOCs. - Schedule a pest/rodent inspection to check for a possible dead animal in walls or cavities. - Order a full deep clean and odor‑mitigation service; if paint/turpentine fumes are present we will ventilate and retest air quality and identify any recent painting or chemical sources. - Open priority work orders to repair any plumbing, venting, or HVAC faults found. - Investigate why the front door was open on arrival, re‑audit our check‑in and lock/security procedures, and retrain staff as needed. - Review cleaning and turnover records and your stay for appropriate compensation. Please send any photos, timestamps, arrival time, or additional details through your Vrbo message thread so we can document everything and expedite the investigation. I’m very sorry this affected your vacation; we will follow up through your Vrbo message thread with next steps.

Not What I Expected but worked okay

Pics of home appeared bigger than actual home, 3rd bedroom & bathroom are completely separate from main home, hv to enter from outside the home. House looked clean but wasn’t clean such as floors, some trash left behind by previous people. Property manag. Very nice & helpful. We had a good time other than size & cleanliness.

We arrived earlier than expected and requested early check in. We were denied, stating they were waiting for the final inspection before we could enter. Ok, understandable, we decided after driving around for a bit to simply park at the house and wait for the inspection so we could enter immediately. We were there for almost 2 hours and no one showed up. At 30 minutes before check in we messaged asking when the inspection would take place because no one had arrived yet, they sent the code immediately without any other communication. Then we have the biggest issue, we had 4 adults, 3 kids and 2 dogs. The bunkhouse is FULL OF MOLD! Which also leads to the laundry room also smelling of mold. Both of these rooms are NOT INSIDE the house. You have to go outside to get to these rooms. Our kids could Not sleep in that room. Forcing 2 them on the pullout sofa sleeper all week and 1 in the room with us.. in a queen bed. Then it rained for 2 whole days, and the entire property FLOODED! The bunk room and laundry room had at least 3 inches of standing water. It became clear at that point that the mold is happening because it probably floods with every major rain event. They sent “techs” first one wiped off the mold covered AC and the second one turned on a fan but commented it had a strong mold smell. Forced to stay, we tried to make the best of it. Then comes the call that stated we were no longer allowed to use the pool heater. We loved the idea of the house, reality it was a let down.

BEWARE. Worst most deceiving rental stayed in. Should NOT be listed as 3 Bedroom/2 Bath Outdoor Shower. Accurate listing 2 Bedroom/1 Full Bath w/ Full Pool House Bath Outdoor Shower. 2 bedrooms & full bath in main upstairs portion of home. Pullout couch in living room had water inside when tried using it night 2. As we unfolded, water poured on the floor. Main upstairs toilet broken. Couldn't flush urine or tp, let alone full bowel movement. 3-4 flushed needed. Bunkbed "bedroom" is NOT a bedroom. It's a beach house on stilts with some boards wrapped around the stilts, enclosing them. It's not to code, not insulated, & no central AC like the actual home upstairs (an old dirty window unit that barely works). The room smells STRONG of mold along with mold growing on 2 cloth chairs in the room. A previous traveler complained in their review July 26 w/ rental co Liquid Life responding that they fixed it. This gave false confidence. Not only did NO ONE respond to concerns during the stay (texted and emailed), clearly NOTHING was fixed with the smell/mold, nor can it be w/ the current house setup. The basement bathroom is NOT connected to the bedroom or upstairs along with no AC at all and its beyond tiny. Imagine having children in the bunkbed room as advertised. You have to walk outside, across the deck, down the deck stairs to get to them. You can't hear them. An intruder could get to them. Good luck in a storm. It a biohazard, unsafe, purposely misleading & no communication.
