              I booked a condo to take my terminally ill sister to the beach for probably her last ever birthday. I stated when I booked that she cannot climb stairs. Bluewater called to say the elevator failed inspection. We had to cancel due to lack of elevator and they won't refund my money.

              DO not pay the extra money for the heated pool. Since we were early in the season we paid $704 for the pool to be heated. I was told the water would be warm 88 when we arrived for our check-in on Saturday evening , May 18th 2024 so the kids could swim. NOT so. I called to let them know, they sent a pool maintenance kid out who said the filter needed cleaned and he turned the heater back on. Monday were ready to swim and the water is chilly. Called again next day, another pool guy comes out says the pool filter needs cleaned, asked why not change the filter so they did. Worked later that evening. Couple days later the pool is chilly again. I called and they said they would reimburse me for a couple of days since the pool heater wasnt working properly. Well guess what now they are tell me they arent making good on their promise to reimburse a couple of days! While the cottage we stayed in was nice the customer service not provided by ********************** Realty EI has left a bad first impression and will not use or recommend them! Ill go back to EI Realty or VRBO. At least with VRBO you can deal directly with the homeowner. Im sure the owners of Stay Salty wouldnt be happy with Bluewaters handling of this situation. Oh, when the first young man came to check things out we said isnt this pool supposed to be saltwater and he said yes but its not anymore because of something wrong so changed to chlorine. Dang sounds like some major maintenance needs done on this pool. In addition the outside pool lights didnt work either and no one came to fix them our entire weeks stay! Bluewater doesnt seem to care! So beware!

              Please accept our sincere apologies for any frustration caused by issues with the pool heat during your stay. You called us on 6/6 to discuss a refund. We returned your call on 6/7 at which time we investigated the issue further and refunded your pool heat fee in full. Guest satisfaction is our highest priority, and it is our hope that we have made this right for you.
