We had an enjoyable stay.Positives-short walk to the beach-a lot of balcony space to relax-big house for 2 families. Plenty of room for privacy times.-easy parking.-close to restaurants and Surfside pier.-everything worked properly (washer,dryer, stove, fridge, etc)Negatives-no linens included. Extra 180.-master bath on 2nd floor…toilet seat needs replaced-several of the lower baloney spindles need replaced. Not safe for little ones.-more kitchen utensils would be niceWe give it a 9/10 for sure and hope to be back.

Our family had a great time during our stay. The house was clean and offered plenty of room. Even the parking area under the house was tidy and free of sand, like it had been hosed off. The beach access is directly across the street if we wanted to run back to eat lunch or go to the bathroom. The trash was picked up a couple times during the week, so it wasn't overflowing by the end of our stay like other places we've rented. The stove needs to be addressed because the large burners did not fit properly causing the burner to be unlevel when trying to cook. I would like to have had a few more cooking utensils, and updated cookware. However, there was a whole cabinet available to store our groceries so they didn't have to sit out on the counter all week. Would consider renting here again.

You can't really see the beach, but if you look in between the houses , you can see the a little ocean. The beach is just right out the front door and the pool is right out the back! You couldn't all for more! The place was clean and kitchen full of everything you need of your gonna cook! The ONLY problem was, when we checked in, the message I received said"code for door is on the door facing the street".. Didn't see it but the issue was resolved quickly. Will DEFINITELY consider this for next year! Thank you!

There was hardly any toilet paper in the bathrooms. We ran out on the second day and had to buy our own. The sink in the yellow painted bathroom was almost 100% clogged. The location was great. The property had plenty of space

Every bathroom is supplied one roll, with extra rolls in the first floor bathroom. We do not supply paper goods for the stay, that is the renters responsibility. The sink has been repaired with no clogs.

Location was just perfect. Walking to restaurants and the pier.

We truly enjoyed our stay location was perfect for our family. Just a few things, some plug ins didn’t work and the showers had a screaming noise when you turned them on.
