The Good, Bad & Ugly from our vacation to Seacrest Beach and our stay at Beach Bummin'...
GOOD - House is in a great location with a trolley stop just outside the door, just a few minutes’ walk to area attractions, use of 4 bikes and patio area was nice with table, chairs and grill.
BAD - Communication from host was not very good. Several texts during our stay (see below) with responses delayed or not at all. Check-in instructions were very limited and did not mention how to obtain parking passes, wristbands for pool, or combination for bikes. The carpet upstairs is worn, beds were just so-so, washer/dryer were old, and beach towels were thin from overuse. There was no broom or mop and the cordless vacuum just “moved dirt around” instead of picking it up.
UGLY - The house was not clean. Food items were seen under the furniture in the living room after our arrival. Shared this with the host and a cleaning crew was sent back in to clean again and when we arrived back at the house…all of it still there. The dishwasher did not work, had left over food and mold inside. Host said they would send maintenance, but we never saw anyone, host never contacted me again about the dishwasher, and it never worked our entire stay.
We have spent many vacations in the Destin, Panama City, 30A area over the past 30 years and the accommodations have always been above par. While we will return to 30A for future vacations, Beach Bummin’ will not be on our list of places to stay.
