The guest house is a converted garage. It smells like a coastal, FL garage and had a musty/mold odor. It was too strong for us to stay there. We all slept in the main house. There were 7 of us and it was just the right amount of space for us to stay in the main house. If I go back in the future, I would only rent the main house.
This location is perfection! It's close to many restaurants, bars, snack, and coffee shops. The beach is so close and not crowded. Watch for red light runners when crossing the street. There is a closet in the garage full of beach items like chairs, wagon and cart, toys, and coolers. This closet needs cleaned out and reorganized with shelving. Many of the items need thrown away bc they are rusted through or broken.
Our week started out cold and got warmer, so we know the heat and AC both work well. The AC will not go lower than 70 degrees per the host. I loved the starts of TP, napkins, paper towels, hand and dish soap, and laundry soap. The showers had refillable shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The sheets were very soft.
The beds were on the firmer side and very comfortable. I struggled to find a pillow that was not lumpy. We didn't have a working dishwasher while we stayed there. The new one sat boxed in the foyer all week but it was never installed. The kitchen has a ton of tools, gadgets, knives, and cookware. A DVD player would be nice in the family room.
We walked every day and in the evenings too. We felt very safe in the area, and there is plenty of police presence.
