We’ve stayed at this beach house before so when we decided to go back to Port A, we thought of no other place we’d rather stay than this house. We even got an exiting text that we could check in early!! Upon arriving we immediately noticed the strong cigarette smell. It was very overwhelming and gave my son a headache. Within the hour or checking in we received a text asking how our house was. We reported there was visible damage to the front stairs and the cigarette smell. They replied with, “Open the windows.” I was taken back as to the listing clearly said No Smoking. It was uncomfortable inside so we decided to take a dip in the pool. While swimming we realized the new home being built ‘next’ to our house. The word next is in quotations because the new house is basically on top of the one we were renting. Felt like you could reach out and touch the house next to you. With that being said, privacy is nonexistent. You can clearly see into our pool/backyard from the other property. Luckily we arrived on a Saturday and construction was not going on. Once Monday morning hit we were woken up by blaring music being played by the workers next door. I could only imagine if both houses were being rented at the same time, how disrupting it could be.
In the room that my son slept in with bunk beds, the ceiling fan did not work and was missing a blade, the beds were very uncomfortable and the sheets were extremely thin. Unfortunately this may have been our last visit to this house.
