Jolly Seaside - Heart of Saint Andrews - small water view.

The location is very convenient, clean and the beds were comfortable. The house is described as mid-century modern, which it is, but the kitchen lacked attention to detail. When traveling we like to have some meals in, so a kitchen with good amenities is important. The cupboards were very old, there wasn’t much order to the items inside, the dishes and glasses are a mish-mass of odds and ends, there was no lid for the frying pan, there was only one glass bowl. We stayed in many locations for our 1-month travel and most had a few common spices as well as parchment paper and tin foil, which would have been a nice convenience. We were not impressed with the kitchen, but if you’re not planning on cooking, it would be a great place to stay. Also, the shower curtain in the bathroom was torn, which should have been replaced before we arrived. We only stayed 2 nights, so didn’t bother mentioning it at the time.

The Jolly Seaside was excellent, wanting for nothing inside the extremely clean place. Great instructions for directions, unit policies, etc. Better bathroom toiletries than most hotels. Also a very reasonable price. Bring your camera to deer watch throughout the town !

A good location, close beaches and trail heads. Host was very good to deal with.

Extra fresh-smelling blankets, sheets and pillows. The beds were comfortable and kids were close-by in the next room. With a view of the bay and walking distance to just about anywhere, we had zero complaints. Thank you for having us.

The place was clean and had everything we needed. However, the owner of the property was there, all day every day. He was doing landscaping, or working on his boat in the backyard. It kind of felt like he was keeping tabs and it was a bit uncomfortable. He arrived each morning and went home for supper (as they don't live in the other half of the duplex). He used his tractor, power tools, and the shop vac all day long. It certainly wasn't a peaceful quiet vacation, sadly. St. Andrew's itself was lovely, and we enjoyed seeing all the deer that roam the town. The main street was fun, and we had fun combing the shops. When we return to the area, we'll likely stay somewhere else, however.
