Sunny Beach Sandcastle Cottage

BUYER BEWARE! - Huge disappointment - look elsewhere! Our family couldn't believe that this place had as many high ratings it had received - it was the reason we booked it along with all of the photos that portrayed a beautiful property. When we arrived, the place was in terrible condition and very run down. I was so concerned about being responsible for all of the damage and wear and tear to the property that I immediately began taking pictures to share with the host. When I did, I never received a response from anybody - no communication at all! The toilet wasn't secured to the floor, there was literally tape patching the shower tub together, large areas of the walls in the living room were missing paint, kitchen cabinets that were coming off of the brackets - overall the place was very run down and not well maintained at all. It was an embarrassment to the point where I felt like I had to apologize to my family because the place was so rough. On the positive side, the AC worked well and the location was great, but for the money I would have booked another property for what I spent if I knew what I was getting into.

This house was very comfortable for our group. The layout was great and the beds were comfortable! We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and feel the ocean breeze from the deck.

While the beach view was limited by other rental properties, the design and decor of the cottage was very cute and highly pleasant. However my only grievance with the property was when i heard a trapped creature above the stove top. I tried to reach out to the host about freeing it however i received no reply. I have no idea how they ended up in the ventilation system above the stove, but hearing the trapped noises of the animal was highly depressing. And any other attempts i made to free it would have caused damage to the property. I hope this issue can be resolved for future visitors.

Open concept living and dining added to the relaxed vibe. Great views off the back deck.
