Great place

We chise this house because of it being pet friendly. It was perfectly located for us. Our sons house was 2 minutes away which was very convenient. We were there for his wedding! It was a great place for us to rest our heads.

Family fishing trip

The family went down for a weekend fishing trip. The host are wonderful. The communication between myself and the host was great before and during my stay. The house was very nice and clean. I will stay here if it’s available every time I come back to the beach. I would definitely recommend.

Beautiful Home, Great Location

We had a great stay at this home. Beautiful interior with lots of natural light and conveniently located. Perfect for family or larger groups, although it was just the three of us staying. I was impressed with the amenities that were available during our stay - plenty of toilet paper, towels, dish soap, spices, etc., which is not typical for most rentals. We really enjoyed having TVs in each room, especially with a toddler. It was nice being able to watch what we wanted to during down time. Beds were surprisingly comfortable. I don’t typically sleep well outside of the house, but slept great (did bring my own pillows though). Although there plenty of towels, we could not find any bath mats. Would stay here again!

Response from VrboOwner on Oct 23, 2024
Dear Rosa, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am truly sorry that this was the experience you had at Sunnysidebungalow. Your comfort and peace of mind are extremely important to us, and I regret that we missed the mark during your stay. This is the first time we have encountered an issue like this, and I want to assure you—and future guests—that we take it very seriously. In response, we had a professional company conduct a full interior and exterior treatment of the home. Additionally, we have increased our regular preventative maintenance and enhanced our deep-cleaning protocols to ensure this issue is fully resolved. We remain committed to providing a clean, comfortable, and enjoyable environment for all of our guests. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention so we can continue to improve. Once again, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. Best regards, Len Sunnysidebungalow

Spectacular home in quiet Neighborhood

We absolutely loved our stay! We have toddlers to preteens and they all were able to enjoy their time too. The door locks they use are just about as toddler-proof as you can get (though not a problem for older kids and adults). The house is kept VERY clean, which is an absolute must for us. There are plenty of cleaning supplies and tools to use for cleaning up messes. There are also wonderful skylights and vaulted ceilings to keep the house cool. When we did run the AC system, we found it is so quiet we had to learn to trust that it was running at all. As promised, the kitchen is fully stocked. Everything works well in the kitchen and wasn't some awkward or cheap appliance. You can bake, cook pasta, and you even have the measuring cups and mixing bowls to do it all. Every room has its own tv and a labeled remote to go with it. The internet never had a problem even with several devices streaming. The neighborhood is quiet and respectful. It's far enough from the action. So, there's not much passing through the area, though you may hear the train pass by from a distance. The neighborhood kids are active so be careful but they are friendly. It's centrally located so you can get anywhere in the area in 15 minutes or less. We couldn't have asked for better VRBO hosts. They were very responsive and always helpful and courteous. :)
