The property itself worked well for us to visit St Joe Bay to do some scalloping, BUT when we arrived on Friday afternoon we noted that there were several bugs, both dead and alive in the home. I immediately let the manager of the property know. As we were leaving for dinner, we noted a spider on the wall. We aren’t too fussy of guests (maybe we should be fussier!), so I killed it and moved on. Later my wife told me she had seen a spider by the coffee maker but just didn’t say anything, thinking it was an isolated issue. We also let the PM know in real time that these two instances had occurred.
The next morning, there was ANOTHER spider crawling across the bathroom floor. I immediately notified the PM and requested someone come spray since we were going to be staying another night. Also at that time, I let him know about the non-functional dryer (which he said they would look at after we checked out). After several hours, we were notified that there were not any exterminators available that day (Monday at the earliest), but they would drop off some bug spray if we’d like.
We rent our beach house too, and I would have been super apologetic and offered to buy dinner or something, but no (and no, I didn’t ask). Anyway, without the spiders/bugs/non-working dryer, I think the house is fine for what we were looking for. The community seems nice, and the video game in the bunk room was a big hit! I wish the PM had been more proactive with trying to make things right.
