We had a really good time. The location is great, so close to the beach. The house fit us all comfortable, the pool was really nice and relaxing. The only issue was the moldy smell downstairs area. But overall we enjoyed the stay

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the location, the house, and the pool during your stay. Your kind words truly mean a lot. We are sorry to hear about the moldy smell you noticed in the downstairs area. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention so they can address it promptly. We look forward to hosting you in the future and providing an even better experience.
There were at least 2 steps on the outdoor stairs that were not secured. I had one plank slide out underneath my foot when I was rushing down with some food. Fortunately I didnt hurt myself, but it was a risk the whole time. There wasn't a lot of amenities and it wasn't super fancy, but it was honestly a great deal for what it is. We were super close to the beach, and that was awesome. Got to take my 98 year old grandpa and cousin who is learning to walk again after 10 years (she just got a prosthetic), and that was worth everything. The location is great.

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing to stay with us. We’re delighted to hear your family had a meaningful trip and enjoyed the beach location. We appreciate you bringing the concern about the stairs to our attention. On the same day we received your message, we replaced the damaged boards and reinforced the remaining wood on the stairs and deck to ensure they are fully secure. Safety is always our top priority. Thank you again for staying with us, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Older home with everything one needs.
Across the road to the beach and a private pool! It is an older home that shows the love salt air has on one. Little rust on metal surfaces. The home had everything we needed and easily fit all 11 of us. Would rent again!

Local customer service was excellent
JD Lucio is the absolute best! We had trouble getting in initially due to a wrong door code and he promptly took care of it. He was on call 24-7. Even answered me on his day off and on Father’s Day. His customer service is the reason I will definitely book again with Vacasa!

Construction next door didn’t allow privacy.
Overall the place is great. I would check with property manger to see if there is still construction going on before renting.

Great location
The location was excellent…the house was ok. The pictures were a little deceiving. The pool looked much larger than it was. The home while updated but, with cheaper materials and furniture. Overall not bad but, not great. Pool access was interesting from both units. They really need to add stairs on the backside of the balcony.

Great location, needs improvement
This house was in a GREAT location! The corner spot was convenient to a beach access point and it was also close enough to the main road that you could get to establishments around the island quickly. There was very little traffic close to the house. However, we booked this house as a 5 bedroom, with both the upstairs and downstairs. The downstairs was unusable due to a very musty smell that was nauseating- mold, bug spray... awful! If you need more than 3 bedrooms for 6 people, stay somewhere else. If you need a place for less people, with a pool, in a great location, the upstairs might be okay.

Hi Jason, thank you for your kind words! We’re so glad to hear you had a great stay and felt welcomed. We also appreciate you sharing your concerns, and we’re sorry for any inconvenience you experienced. Our local team has confirmed that no issues were found downstairs during inspection, and both prior and subsequent guests had positive experiences. That said, we’ll continue to monitor the space closely. Your input is valued, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better stay in the future!
A lot of updates need to be done to the downstairs living space. The floors were peeling up and it smelled really strongly of mold so if you're sensitive to mold I would skip this property. The outdoor showers are unusable on the right hand side unless you've got a vice grip and the left side is close to live wires with the shower spray. The pool had an uncovered intake vent that had me nervous with kids swimming in it. The location to the beach was the major selling point for this rental and the only reason we decided to stay even with all the other issues. Its less than a two minute walk, so we spent a lot of time at the beach instead of at the rental. I did like that it's basically setup for two families. We stayed there with myself, my husband, and our two kids in the downstairs while my sister in law her husband and two kids stayed upstairs.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the beach and the layout for two families. We apologize for any concerns with the pool and outdoor showers—both have been inspected and are in working order. We appreciate your comments and hope to welcome you back for an even more comfortable stay.
Such a great place to stay. The bottom bathroom is a bit small and cramped but everything was clean and everything we needed was there and then some. These folks are the perfect “host”

Great!
Unique location, heavenly beds, we enjoyed very much our stay! We just crossed the street and get to the beach, or we had fun in our private pool with some grilled hamburgers. We had everything steps away, also there is beach front excellent restaurant. You can tell the house has been recently remodeled with a very good taste. Big screen tvs, cable and very good wifi. Will stay here again hopefully very soon!
Nice place. We rented upstairs and downstairs - has 2 separate entrances. Great location. Clean. Heaters downstairs weren’t working, property manager sent people to fix promptly when notified. Only issues - no dishwasher up or downstairs. We cooked, had lots of dishes to wash. Also no garbage disposal. Would like to see these items in a place of this caliber.
