About this property

STUNNING BEACHFRONT HOME:AMAZING OCEAN VIEWS-BEACH ACCESS & OCEANFRONT DECK

Our home is right on Wells beach. Wake up every morning with a 180 degree ocean view from your ocean facing deck and living room. This home is the ultimate in beach convenience. Wake up to sunrises over the ocean and enjoy family fun on the deck as you watch the sun set. Well stocked kitchen with all the utensils allows for eating in and the central location of this home allows for quick access to all the great local restaurants. Wells is getting more and more popular each summer. The number of homes that offer this degree of beach access and ocean views is shrinking every year as owners convert rental homes to private homes. Treat yourself to the ultimate Wells beach experience - Stay right on the beach!! Within our recently updated circa 1924 home, this 3 bedroom unit is adjoined by a 2 bedroom unit (VRBO #2279562) on the opposite side of the home. If you are looking to vacation with family/friends this setup provides for both close proximity and privacy. You only live once, why not treat yourself to one of the best locations Wells Beach has to offer! Enjoy the panoramic ocean sunrise with your coffee!! (All stays contingent on receipt of signed rental agreement)

The place was clean, spacious and had everything we needed - all kitchen utensils and small appliances, to basic bath items such as hairdryers.The views are phenomenal, and access to the beach doesn't get any easier. The location is ideal, close to the grocery store, restaurants, and yes, the beach.The host and local manager were friendly, gracious and accommodating.

Location on beach and views were stunning. Hearing the constant sound of the surf was amazing. House was very clean. Communication with host was excellent. We didn’t realize at booking process we had to request towels and linens, but after communication with host they were delivered within 45 minutes. Wells Beach is incredible and we truly enjoyed our stay here, including daily walks on the beach.

It’s Half of the whole House. The accessible terrasse is the one with the table and chairs. BBQ was working well. Perfect for a family vacation.

Perfect Location

4 adults slept at the house; 2 other adults spent time but stayed at nearby hotel. They parked at grocery store shopping area and we just brought them to and from as it was only a couple minutes to drive from the house. House well equipped and it was easy for everyone to hang out in the living and back room - small table in living room really connected the spaces well. Had a lot of rain, so really appreciated the indoor space/layout. Weather cleared and we enjoyed meals on the large dining table outside. Great location - right on beach. Plenty of room in driveway for our two cars.

Wonderful spot!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My husband and I spent the first night as a couple, and the back deck was perfect for a romantic dinner, with lots of takeout locations nearby. Our teenagers joined us for the rest of the weekend and even though the house is not huge, there was plenty of space for the four of us. Being right on the beach gives so much more room, and we spent much of our time down on the sand or walking the length of the beach. We had everything we needed for preparing meals, and the bedrooms were well equipped with fans to keep things comfortable at night. We all agree that we would love to return for another stay!

Great place!

Every September, we've been staying at Wells Beach for over 10 years. We always stayed at one certain place but it was sold a few years ago so we have been staying at different places. This one is a charm! Roomy and come on! Right on the beach. It was comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook meals there. The host was quick to respond to any questions. It was fairly clean but let's face it, with a beach place you will have sand. The places I care about such as bathroom, kitchen and bedrooms were all very clean.There is a nice grill, a private deck, and a common area to share with neighbors. we didn't use that area but it's nice. All in all we were very pleased and I believe this will be our go-to place to stay in lovely Wells! All the bedrooms are upstairs but there are pull-out couches if you have an issue with stairs.

Celebrating our 50th anniversary.

We love Wells beach but were a bit disappointed that so many people, including several very young children were in the adjoining part of the house. We love children, but the loud “kid noises” were rather obnoxious especially late at night and very early mornings. We never used the laundry facilities or the water toys. We would hope to have “ neighbors” who follow the rules next time.

Beautiful Sunrise Location on the Ocean

Property was very nice, the view is the draw. If you have an aging person in your group, be aware there are a lot of steps up to the property by the street and then again, more up to bedrooms. Kitchen and rooms were spacious and we really enjoyed (and needed for noise deflection) the multiple electric fans in the house. As listing mentions, this is a shared property, separated by room door upstairs. We were paired with a family that had young children, one with special needs. No issues with the family but there were MANY slamming door (over 25 repeated slammings at a time) and screaming sessions that started to dampen our stay. We reached out to the host regarding the noise disturbances, which were so loud they sounded like they were in our living space. Instead of stepping forward and resolving when contacted, the host put it on us to decide if the other family should be contacted regarding the noise. Contact was made by the host and the noise disturbance did thankfully subside. The house is relatively clean but do NOT look under the beds (trash, dust, gum, etc). There was a washer and dryer issue (also shared) but the host responded and resolved quickly. We were traveling for 2 weeks, most people traveling for that period do not want to pack or buy towels and sheets for their stay. Many locations provide these items (our Maine rental location before this one did) and if I was to recommend a change, it would be too provide at no extra charge. Contract for this location is drawn up like a major extended legal document which is a turn-off to most honest people. Assumption is that the host had some issues in the past and the extra, lengthy documents are required. Overall, we mostly enjoyed our stay at this location. Host was excellent at responding to concerns/communication.

About the host

Hosted by David Gamblin

Host profile image
My family and I have been vacationing at Wells Beach for the last 15-20 years. We do enjoy the family atmosphere at this beach. Before purchasing 131 Atlantic, we stayed at all the motels and hotels along Rte 1. The daily vacation drama of will we find a parking spot by the beach and packing up the car and being careful not to forget anything as we'd have to drive back to get it - (and risk losing our parking spot) was not really fun. We started staying right by the beach and our stress levels decreased dramatically. Everything about Wells in the summer is fun (see Congdon's Doughnuts, Billy's Chowder House, Mikes Clam Shack, The Steak House and even Dairy Queen). We take a lot of pride in our home and constantly look to upgrade.

Why they chose this property

If you want the positively best Wells Beach experience, then stay right on the beach. This home is the ultimate in convenience and experience. You can watch the tide come in and go out from the deck or living room. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean from your comfortable chair on your deck is absolutely therapeutic. This home is also strategically located between Public Way #2 and Public Way #3. The distance from both can decrease the potential for crowds that is sometimes seen right at the exit of a Public Way. The location of this home is absolutely amazing.

What makes this property unique

Beachfront - Right there - 180 degree ocean views - People watching from your deck - Large windows looking out over the Atlantic Ocean everyday.
