Coastal Beach House Near Pine Point w/ Fire Pit

We were very excited to stay here as the location is amazing with such a close walk to the beach. But upon arrival, there was no power. Surrounding homes and restaurants did have power so this specific to this house we do believe. We waited several hours for a response from the host and did not hear anything. Instead of waiting we ended up booking somewhere else for our stay. The place was also dirty and lacked basic amenities like hand soap and towels. This place has so much potential with the location, we hope they figure it out for the future!

This was a great location for our short stay in Scarborough! Close proximity to restaurants. The walk to the beach access was very short with two toddlers in tow. Quiet neighborhood.

When we entered the property you could see that the property was not vacuumed. Floors were not washed. Kitchen surfaces had not been cleaned. Visible spills and food on the surfaces. There was a dirty old sponge, no dish towels.I messaged the host and they sent the cleaning people back in about an hour. The cleaner was rude. She wiped down the kitchen counter and the dining room table and vacuumed the stairs and the living room rug. No hand soap or trash bin in the upstairs bathroom. We also encountered a problem with our Internet connection. The host was messaged. They sent information for logging on, which didn’t work. We made them aware. They sent different information that didn’t work. I communicated with them every day for five days. I got a generalmessage thanking me for making them aware and they would take care of it as soon as possible. That never happened. The living room has one small couch enough to seat three people and that was it no other furniture . Just a kitchen table with metal chairs. The property has sliding doors in the bedroom, which we were unable to close.This was open the whole week. A welcome book with information on where to find extra towels, broom/ vacuum would have been helpful. We ended up checking out a day earlier. They never provided correct Internet information. The property is decorated cute and is a short walk from the beach.

DO NOT RENT THIS PLACE. We lost power for multiple days during our stay because of unpaid electrical bills.The house is well located and has a nice layout. However, it is so poorly managed that I could never recommend it. When we showed up, we found gritty floors, dirty dishes in the cupboards, and a pile of random clothes (including a dirty, worn-out bra) in the master bedroom closet. There were also unfolded (dirty?) washcloths randomly piled in multiple closets. A spare blanket and pillow were on the floor of the master closet.The wifi info provided in the pre-arrival message was incorrect. It took numerous messages over several days before we finally got the correct instructions to get the WiFi working.12 hours after we finally got WiFi working, the power went out. We thought it was due to thunderstorms in the area. When it hadn’t returned hours later, we reached out to the host. The utility company wouldn’t allow us to report the outage without the account number or account holder’s phone number, but the host would not contact the utility company for us. At one point they LIED and claimed someone was at the house trying to fix the power, but no one had showed up. After multiple calls to the power company, we learned the truth: the power was cut due to billing issues. When we relayed this to the host, they told us power would not be restored during our stay. We later learned the same thing had happened the previous month.Decent house, TERRIBLE host, do not rent!
