First the rental company.. Folly's Best rentals, that manages this rental, is by far the worst rental company ever. They neglect to inform you if there are issues with the beach or access even though they knew before we signed a rental agreement that the beach would be an issue. They don't care if the rental is dirty or ant infested or has mildew growing on the vents. They care nothing about providing service or even being polite. They want their money and that is all. Their solution if you have an issue is to give you an hour to vacate and tell you good luck finding a hotel on the weekend in Charleston. In our case, that would have meant trying to find a place that would have been able to accommodate our food and four people including a 7 months pregnant woman. They didn’t send anyone to take a look. They said they tried calling but had no missed calls. The owner said we just couldn’t be pleased. How is that possible when they didn’t even offer a viable option?
When we walked in, the place wreaked of mildew. So we opened up all the windows thinking that would fix it. Come to find out there was mold and mildew on all the vents so that was never going to go away. We weren't sure we could sue the pool because the vacuum was left in it all weekend. There were ants on the counters when we arrived, which we cleaned off. But as you would think, they were back with a vengeance the next morning. There were 4 flashlights (we thought this nice), but realized they were leaking rust and who knows what else from the batteries. None of the remotes had functioning batteries. There were parental controls on the cable so that you could not watch anything on direct TV that it thought was above G. There was Pseudomonas (that pink bacteria) all over the window sill, blinds, and tub in the bathroom.
Also, you can look forward to the owners, who live above, yelling at each other and watering the plants right onto your head as you sit at the picnic table.
