This is a private home right on the pedestrian only section of surf side beach, as advertised. Overall our stay was ok, but we did have some safety concerns. - the entry door is not secure. We never managed to get it locked from the inside and barely got it locked from the outside on the last day. We messaged the host, who was aware and had a handy man out. I would not consider the lock fixed.- the switched deck lights by the doors on both levels do not work. Host thought the handy man fixed these, but they were not.- the smoke detector is not installed, it’s in the pantry. This was mentioned, but was not addressed.- the party lights under the house do not work. We were told someone took the extension cord so there isn’t lighting underneath.- there was trash at the steps of the home: old sand toys and pvc pipe are things the ocean didn’t bring up and could have been cleaned up prior to our visit.- parking is difficult due to the built up sand, if you don’t have 4WD you will get stuck if you go too far back. You couldn’t fit two vehicles there easily.For the price, we would’ve expected the house to be secure and lighting to be functional. However, it wasn’t a terrible stay. I think the host will address these concerns for future guests.
