I’m writing this review post one month and after recently renting another home on West Beach for Mother’s Day weekend for the wife and family that had everything you expect. The tale of two rental homes… The reason why I could not and would not rent the Purple Pelican home again for this past weekend was so apparent after being in another home that met every need. First and foremost the house is hot at night in the two bedrooms. The AC was cranked and cool in the den but the rooms have no flow. The ceiling fans are small and don’t help bring in the cool air to the rooms. The noise from cars wizzing down the highway just behind the house is also heard in the two rooms. Not what you expect for a quiet beach get away. Also, when the condenser unit starts there was a loud surging sound, so even if you are able to fall asleep then there’s a good chance you will be awakened. Sleeping was horrible to say the least. The kitchen is as sterile as a home can be. Maybe a salt and pepper shaker, other than that nothing. The pots and pans are not worthy enough to be donated to good will. The Teflon pan with no Teflon. I spent more time scraping out the previous renters stuck on eggs than I did making breakfast. I just don’t understand how owners can’t make a trip to WM or Target and invest a couple hundred dollars into culinary items. After renting a different home in the Pointe West community this past weekend that spared no expense, I felt obliged to go back and review the Purple house.
