Due to the tropical storm Lee all boats were canceled and we did not get to the island for our stay. They provided a full refund which was very nice. We hope to reschedule soon.

The level of disrepair this property is in is not only very disturbing and disappointing, but also extremely dangerous. The most concerning issue was the water POURING into the closet in the bedroom from the ceiling, anytime the air conditioning was on. It was leaking a significant amount of water immediately next to the electric breaker panel, a clear fire risk. I called twice to express concern. The first time they sent a maintenance man, that basically did nothing. The second time a kind manager (Shawn) called other hotels to see if they could accommodate our dogs and they could not. The other issue with Sea Siren Cottage, besides the fact is NOT on a wharf or the boat basin at all, is the volume of noise from The Gazebo Bar. It sounded like a rave until all hours of the morning and we essentially were unable to sleep. Furthermore, the Sea Siren Cottage was lipstick on a pig and falling apart. The couch was faded and looked dirty, the door to the deck had been kicked and was rotting, the windows were cracked, there were wires sticking out on the deck and at least an inch of moss growing, showing it had not been cleaned at all this season. The floors were very scratched, the door frame was held together by hot glue from a glue gun, and there was no deadbolt on the bedroom door that went to stairs to the ground. The bathroom vanity was rotting where it met the floor and the radiator cover was hanging off of the radiator.
