Reviewer Comments:
Our rental house (Playa Ancha) from Cobb Real Estate provided the best rental experience we have ever had. We always find things that could be improved when we stay at rental homes but after 3 days in Playa Ancha, I had to resign to the fact that they thought of everything! So many little touches and additions to the home. It was obvious that the experience of their customers is of the utmost priority. We will 100% be back.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was beautiful and very comfortable. The sleeping arrangements were great. The kitchen was very well stocked. I had brought a lot of my own kitchen things just in case. The only downside was the lack of a place to hang my clothes. If they had a small hanging rack in the master bedroom that would make this place a 10 instead of a 9. But if they never get the clothes rack or not I would want to stay there again

My husband and I have stayed in several houses in the Crystal Beach area and this was by far one of my favorites! The house is beautifully decorated and has everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was fully equipped, plenty of sitting and the sleeping arrangements were perfect for our couples trip. We would rent this house again!
