    Block Island Realty

    Block Island Realty

    (3 reviews)

    I can see, at one star, mine is tied for the highest rated review of Block Island Realty on Yelp!…read moreThat should give one pause. Here's how the star was earned: their communications were fine, albeit minimal, and they represented the house accurately, in terms of the pictures. Here's how they were lost: We could not gauge from the photos that the house would effectively be a sauna during most waking hours of the day. With no insulation and almost no ventilation through low awning windows, the heat rose intensely. It was a warmer week, with highs ranging from the mid 70s to the mid 80s, topping out at 88 one day. But inside, it was easily 100 degrees in the main area of the house and maybe 115 in the sleeping loft. The butter we left out turned to liquid. We simply couldn't be in there during the day, so we sat on the lawn, under the shade of the house, sheets draped over our legs for the nipping flies, fans running. It is more on the homeowner to address this, but it seems pretty unconscionable that BI Realty rents this for $500+ a night. We asked whether the house had beach chairs and a beach umbrella. We were told they cannot guarantee the house did. (One might ask - could they at least go over and check? It's a small island!) So we added that bulk into our trunk, only to discover, in a dingy shed, that there were a half dozen beach chairs there (though most had scuzz that needed scrubbing) as well as an umbrella. Please know - and it is in the lease -- that BI Realty does not provide sheets and towels (you can feel free to rent these on top of the princely sum they command). Nor do they provide paper towels, dish soap, bar soap, or ... toilet paper. (We discovered this last feature the hard way.) Why? When was the last time you paid $500+ a night and not reaped the luxury of toilet paper? I know it's a small detail ... but think of the mentality of a business that decides it prudent to eliminate this $5 expense. We also did not have bathmats (for Covid reasons, they said), though they did have blankets for us. Couldn't figure out that logic. All told, this business seemed really good at cashing checks (checks, which must be mailed ... and you wait a month for the security deposit) ... and wanting in several other areas of customer care. That said, Block Island is nice, and probably nicer in the off season.

    Although we had a wonderful time on Block Island and absolutely loved the home we rented.....the…read moreservice we received from Block Island Realty was disappointing. From our initial inquiry to rent a house that went unanswered for weeks, to our damage deposit refund that we are STILL waiting for a month later.... The home we rented was listed on their website to include things like AC, Cable TV, Gas Grill all of which were either missing or broken. We politely asked for these items to be fixed. Their handyman came to the house and was rude, unprofessional and trash-talked the entire time. Their "fixes" to our problems were unacceptable. They never offered to compensate us for the false listing. I would be very reluctant to rent from them again....especially when you are spending thousands of dollars.

    Phillips Real Estate - View from Morning Glory

    Phillips Real Estate

    Like others, we had. very disappointing experience with Phillips Real Estate…read more The pros: When we complained about the absolutely unacceptable rental we were put in, they moved us to another, better rental. In person, the realtors were friendly. The cons: We looked at photos of dozens of rentals online. We were looking for a small rental to sleep 2 that would accommodate our small dog. After multiple conversations with people at Phillips, we decided to rent Mohegan Cottage. When we arrived, what we found was a lovely view and a "cottage" that was mostly clean but otherwise really unsuitable for anyone other than college students. There were literally holes in the walls, bare outlets, cords ripped out of walls, broken fixtures, and rust everywhere. The "master bedroom" was separated from the main living space by a folding door with no wall. The screen door out to the deck had rips with giant pieces of duct tape over them. The mattress was hard as a rock. The insides of the cabinets were sticky with grime. (See attached photos) We called immediately and were told, "Yes, it's rustic." The next morning, we called and said it was really unacceptable. They offered to find us another place but said that any place that accepted dogs was going to be in this condition (not true), that any place at that price with a water view would be in that condition (also not true - we checked other realtors' sites), and that the owners knew it was really bad and weren't making repairs because they were going to be tearing it down in a few months. They then showed us another house. This one was nicely furnished and comfortable. It did not have a view, but that was OK. They told us there was a farm with chickens on one side and construction on the other. When I asked if other renters had complained about any noise, they wouldn't give me a direct answer. We decided to move to the new house because the first one wasn't livable. However, we soon found that at least three roosters crowed every morning starting at 4:00 a.m. The farm also seemed to have an ongoing altercation, with people yelling at and threatening each other. Again, the Phillips people seemed surprised, and again, we found information online that described at least the altercation issue in detail. Overall, we had a very nice vacation, although we didn't get enough sleep! But the experience with Phillips was concerning, mostly because they were so non-forthcoming with accurate information about the rentals.

    This has to be the worst rental experience in our 30 years of vacationing on Block Island. The…read morehouse was a wreck, dirty, unusable and broken furniture, the front of the refrigerator is literally rusting off, dishes in the dishwasher, laundry in the dryer and left over food all over the kitchen. The layers of dust were so thick, I actually took pictures of them. And there was a $160 "cleaning" fee with the rental. When I called to discuss, I was told that there were pictures on the website. The only saving grace was that it was a short stay this time. Will avoid at all cost. If anyone wants pictures, I will be happy to send.
