Sandals Inn | Oceanside Cabana

  : No breakfast available. This was a beach cabana with kitchen facilities where we stayed for 3 nights. The location of our stay was excellent and probably why we paid a premium price for this property. It was wonderful to be less than a 3 minute walk to the beach and sand dunes and about a 10-15 min walk to restaurants and shops. The beds were also comfortable, and we loved the fireplace. We found the property to be very clean; however, there were small random globs of some kind of goo stuck on the long kitchen wall for starters prior to other eventual disappointments.
  : In no special order: The LR and front BR blinds were metal. When we opened or closed the veins for privacy or daylight, only half would turn with the rod. The rest had to be manually turned. Some didn't work at all. The sofa bed needs to be replaced. Very low and very shallow meaning no where to comfortably sit in the LR. The cushions sank into the frame besides making it very difficult to get out of it. (We instead sat in the plastic chairs provided for the table.) The TVs were frustrating. No call list for major networks, and difficult to figure out the Guide. We gave up. No music to listen to either. It was a nice added feature to have 2 sinks in the bathroom; however, one of the drains was so slow, we could only use one of them. Rubber mats are needed in the bathtub. Terribly slippery, so we had to put a towel in there for safety during showering. The laminate on the lower cupboard door under the kitchen was peeling away. We would have liked to sit outside but the outdoor furniture was dirty with not enough paper towels available for us to wipe them down.

  : location
  : This is a pet friendly unit and we expected possible dog odor, but when we opened the door and entered the unit, the smell of animal urine was overwhelming in the carpet. we brought our two dogs ( completely house trained) they didnt even want to lay on the floor, I brought dog beds and am now home from my vacation washing them because they smell so bad from being on the carpet. The unit was not clean, bathroom floor, the door, walls and toilet were dirty (the towels were clean at least) there is obvious deferred maintenance. Vacasa (property management company)tried to relocate us to a different location a block away across the main road without ocean view and a one bedroom. Their email said dont worry about additional cost, we will take care of it..this property was 1/2 the cost on their website in comparison to the two bedroom we paid for. We bought a candle and a bottle fabreeze and decided to tough it out because the location and ease to get the dogs to the the beach was far more convenient, thankfully we packed slippers. Vacasa credited back one nights fee, Im my opinion they should have compensated at least 1/2 or all of what we were charged. Such a let down for my 50th getaway vacation. its a great property, and I would stay there again if they replaced the flooring and did a more thorough job of cleaning.

  : It was a perfect location for my family. Secluded from others and close to the beach! The weather could have been nicer, however, but I know you have no control over that. A very nice getaway!
  : On the rainy day, I worked on the puzzle for fun, however upon finishing it I found there were at least 8 pieces missing. Just a suggestion, but a newer complete puzzle might be nice for future guests. Also, even though the inside of our place was very clean, the outside of the front window above the table was badly in need of cleaning. Just a once over would surely help.
