6 Mi to Riviera Beach: WPB Retreat w/ Pool Access!

Reviews

• June stay

  3/5

  We stayed here for 4 nights during a baseball tournament at CACT Park. The primary reason I picked the property was the proximity to the fields, the pool, and the kitchen.The property was spacious for 3 teens and 2 adults. The pool was nice. The property is well maintained.However, the kitchenette was very basic and did not have a stove, dishwasher or garbage disposal. I think the listing should be more clear about this. Cooking utensils were bare minimum. No can opener. No strainer. No salt and pepper. No hand soap in the bathrooms. No body wash, although there were mini shampoo and conditioner.Sugar ants came out even if there was 1 crumb left. There were no cleaning sprays to wipe down the counter. I texted the property manager and he brought some over and sprayed for the ants. However, I would constantly find 1 or 2 sugar ants crawling on me at random times. I did not like that.The temperature indoor was set to 78. This is very warm for us. We tried lowering the thermostat to 74 but it kept resetting to 78 and never really cooled down. It was difficult to sleep with how warm it was. Also the mattress downstairs was lower at the headboard than at the feet. The last night we turned the opposite way and slept better. The mattress needs to be turned.All in all this was a very basic rental, although the pictures and the nice flooring and bathrooms made it seem like it was more upscale.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Krisztina, thanks for your feedback, we’re glad to hear the home felt spacious for your group and that you enjoyed the pool and convenient location. After reviewing your comments, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
  - We do take listing accuracy seriously, and the property is advertised as having a kitchenette. We include a microwave, hot plate, and cooking basics, but no full stove or dishwasher.
  - We sent a welcome text at check-in, encouraging guests to reach out with any issues. While we were contacted about ants and responded quickly, we didn’t receive reports about the other concerns mentioned.
  - The ant activity appeared to be related to food and dishes left in the sink, but we treated the area promptly and brought additional supplies to help.
  - The downstairs bed was found damaged after your stay and required repair, this may have contributed to the uneven mattress experience.
  We appreciate your feedback and are continuing to make updates to improve the guest experience.

  5/5

  We loved the layout and the 3 1/2 baths. The kitchen was not designed for cooking meals but we had planned to eat lots of seafood out. The host, Donald, was very easy to contact and helpful. The pool was an added treat. We did bring in food one night and enjoyed the large table. We would stay again. Located in a nice walkable neighborhood, 15 to 20 minutes by car from just about anything you'd want to do.
