Relaxing vacation

The view and ocean access can't be beat. Had a very relaxing 4 days, and didn't want to leave. Most of the time we had the beach almost to ourselves. Beds were very good. Enjoyed the little town, too.

Loved the Ocean Off the Deck!

Our first property had a maintenance issue and we were switched to this one. It was clean and comfortable with the ocean right off the back deck. Couldn’t beat the views!

Very clean. Needs a sink in main living area. Washing dishes in bathroom is unsanitary.

Very bad accommodation. Just a motel room. No kitchen and 18 stairs to room. View very nice. Pictures are accurate…but don’t tell the whole w. Only sink is in the bathroom. It just isn’t right to wash dishes in the bathroom!

Great view.

Great view from the living room except a wide railing across the top of the deck blocks the waterline view. New air fryer and a microwave. Draw back is the only sink in the place is in the bathroom. Medium sized fridge without a freezer section. Super comfy bed with a good mattress topper. Shower floor very very slippery. I wore flip flops in the shower and they worked well. The initial price for the room was a good deal. But after all the fees and taxes not a good buy anymore.

Property was filthy dirty, furniture old and stained. Sofa sleeper was urine covered, dirty and had bed bugs. Tried to get a refund and was denied. They are listing this property with a high 9.4 10/10 rating. When it is a 2.0. They are fraudulently advertising property. DO NOT book this rental. You will feel frauded. I spoke with management who refused to refund or move us to a clean acceptable rental option. Going home to dispute charge with my credit card company and work with VRBO LEGAL DEPARTMENT! There are doing theft by deception, and need to be stopped.

We're very sorry your stay fell so far below expectations. We take allegations of cleanliness and bed bugs extremely seriously and wish you had reported your concerns during your stay, we would have gladly sent our housekeeping team to address any cleanliness issues. Our lead housekeeping team did inspect the home as soon as you checked out, and found no evidence of bedbugs. We did note a small amount of debris and some staining on the mattress. We will deep clean the mattress and plan on replacing it in the near future. We regret the distress this caused and appreciate you taking the time to detail your concerns.
