Great for groups

We had 15 people and 3 dogs and there was plenty of space for everyone. This home was perfect for us. We could go out and enjoy the beach or just stay in and enjoy the pool. We definitely enjoyed the pool. There's plenty of covered space for a cookout too, even if it rains.

Vacation rental that felt like home!

We had a fantastic stay at this beach house! It was incredibly spacious and perfect for hosting our family gathering. The layout made everyone feel right at home, with plenty of room to spread out and relax. The pool was a great bonus, and the beach was just a short drive away—super convenient. The host was also very responsive and easy to communicate with, which made everything go smoothly. We’d definitely stay here again!

Nice house, service NEEDS improvement

At the beginning, when I booked the reservation, I purchased the reservation insurance through VRBO, which allows a 10 day period in which you can have a free walk-through of the property before the start date of your reservation. When contacting the owner, they said that they wouldn't be able to do that, even though I paid for the insurance which allowed me to. When we arrived at the house, we found the pictures in the ad to be misleading about it's location. It's located right next to an out- dated warehouse/shop, which is blocking most of the view of the ocean. When we walked up the stairs to the mesh-enclosed open patio, half of the screen on the door at the entrance from the stairs to the patio was hanging off. Multiple wasps inside patio. The house looked nice, but none of the dishes or utensils in the kitchen were clean. We had to wash everything we wanted to use before using it. There was a live roach in the utensil drawer in the kitchen. There were no toilet paper holders in any of the bathrooms. There was hair in the tub in the master bath. The master bed was very low quality and very soft. One of the glass doors in the living room that opened up to the open patio was broken. The charcoal grill grate had never been cleaned. The sliding glass door to the small patio connected to the master bedroom wouldn't lock. The master bedroom tv would turn on by itself at random times. The seat on one of the chairs on the patio connected to the kitchen was broken.

The house was nice and clean. We really enjoyed ourselves. It’s close enough to the beach and far enough from the crowd. It was peaceful.

Horrible

The house is very big, enough for a big family. Although, it is not conditioned to be rented. The bedroom's do not look like they do in the photos. Our kids got a room because supposedly it was enough space, it was not. We were missing a bed that was clearly in the picture and in the description. One of the bedroom's had bugs, on the mattress, walls, pillows, etc. We had to abandon that bedroom and sleep on the floors and couches. We tried reaching out to the host, but she answered until 4 hours later, and did not help at all. All the bedroom's mattresses are not in good condition. The bed's need to be updated completely. The cleaning was extremly horrible. The bed sheets were extremly dirty. The bathroom was dirty, the shower's were rusted and the tub was dirty. The pool was in horrible condition. My family and I rented this house specifically, because we wanted our kids to have a pool to swim, that is not what happened. The pool was filled of toads and algea. Mosquitoes were all around the pool, and in the house. There aren't enough cooking utensils as it says in the description. The host has to be a little more comprehensive and kind. In conclusion the house is not in condition at all to be rented.

Not ready for guests

We arrived to an electrical crew working on rewiring the house and no electricity until over 2 hrs after check in.The AC didn’t cool the property until 3am.There was no hot water, because the crew turned off the gas and uninstalled the gas meter. It was obvious that the cleaning crew came into the hot house with no electricity to make beds, set out towels, and throw a bucket of pine sol and water on the dining area floor. Nothing was clean, the coffee pot was broken and filled with molded grounds, and there were spiders in one of the beds. The pictures need updating as the room set up was not what we planned for. The next day the owner made arrangements for us to move to a different property at 5pm that was slightly smaller but had several couches. The problem was he never sent the address or lockbox code to the new property. After rearranging our plans and repacking 11 Girl Scouts and 7 chaperone’s gear and sending several messages asking for the property info, we ended up waiting til 5:30 when I was forced to call to receive the info. The new property was cleaned and ready, however, additional bedding and towels were not provided for the additional guests that the owner was informed would be needed, so we had to make do. The rest of our stay was uneventful and pleasant. We were very thankful an alternative arrangement was able to be made. It’s beyond obvious that this original booking should never have been made or alternative arrangements made prior to our arrival.
