Excellent stay! House was clean, easy 1-2 min to the beach with direct access over the dunes using a bridge. Plenty of space for 2 families total of 11 people. Kids loved the green space in the backyard for volleyball/football. 5 Stars!

Good getaway

The house was nice and close enough to the beach to walk there. The neighborhood is beautiful and there are wonderful views of the ocean from both balconies. There was one room with no dresser or night stand and the closet was locked so I had a family member upset by that and there were some cosmetic things that could use fixing but overall the house was what we needed and made our trip great!

House is great but rental company is not

This house is beautiful!! It is decorated very beach and fun. There are large gathering areas and lots of bedroom!! The house is a five star. Dealing with Ryson Realty who rents it isn’t good. We weren’t informed that the ice maker was broken when we arrived. It was fixed two days before we left - with no warning that the Workman was coming. We had issues with the cable and internet. It was reported to the office. No one every called back with an update and service finally came back on. As I said, this house is beautiful and expensive to rent. The rental agency doesn’t reflect their product!! We won’t stay at this house again because of our problems.

Unfortunately our stay here wasn’t as pleasant as we’d hope. From the first day of check-in we encountered issues, such as the Wi-Fi and TV access in one of the downstairs rooms and roaches/gnats! I contacted the management team everyday to update them and ask for assistance. They were responsive but assuming due to the holiday we didn’t get the above seen until day 3. Needed prior check.The property manager came out once to bring spray/zevo for bugs, which didn't help, and a very slow router that didn’t allow us to stream other apps besides YouTube, which eventually weren’t able to connect at all but to regular TV.We brought games to entertain us and went to the beach/strand but with family of all ages Wi-Fi is a crucial amenity.The furniture- patio chairs broken, cushions worn/unwashed. Dining room chairs dingy with stains, tables sticky, couches dusty. Out of 6 rooms, 2 rooms had comfortable beds. The sofa bed mattresses were thin, too thin for 1 adult let alone 2 to sleep on. Another room the bed frame was unstable. Overall the furniture needs replacing.The kitchen- no seasonings, we brought our own thank goodness. Had pots/pans/etc. but one of the burners were out. It was a holiday for cooking so was an inconvenience. Strong smell of mildew below the sink with old sponges. No paper towels. Bathrooms- only 3 for 15 ppl so it was a wait always, just a note. But only 1 roll per bathroom. Also, no detergent, linen stains. Seems like the property is neglected
Loose staircase, unsafe for guests
Broken lounge patio chair/unable to use
Dirty porch to greet us at checkin with dingy patio furniture

Beautiful Home, some issues with the interior though

This is a beautiful home, close to the beach, and in a quiet neighborhood. The property who rented us the home, Ryson Properties, didn't do such a great job helping us though. The toilets in two of the three restrooms were overflowing. We called the company to come fix them and they didn't come out until late in the evening. Our house guests had to use the port-o-potty that was at the next door construction. The house also has electrical problems in the kitchen. The oven doesn't bake properly and when we tried to run the dishwasher the breakers blew in the kitchen. Again, Ryson didn't do anything about this. We emailed them when we got back from vacation and they still haven't called or emailed us back. The house DOES sleep 15 people very comfortably, but if Ryson doesn't get the toilets fixed its not worth the money.

Beautiful House with some quirks `

First off all, this house was beautiful and only about 300 meters from the beach. The directions were spot on and the Ryson rental people were very nice. We had a package shipped and were affraid that it might be an issue. The woman behind the counter pulled the box out from under the desks as soon as I said my name, before we'd done anything. Made a good first impression. The downsides to this place were some of the quirks of rental places. They only give you one roll of toilet paper per bathroom no matter how long you stay. The same with the dish tablets for the dishwasher. That is kind of annoying when you spend so much on a vacation home. Some of the rules you don't even know about until you have already booked, like the fact that you have to clean the grill if you use it. Or that there is an extra fee if there is sand in the beach house. Isn't that what the cleaning fee is for? The house was in nice condition, with slightly worn slip covers. It would be nice if there was a listing of all the appliances that were at the house. We were without a blender for margaritas and bought one. Over all a very nice stay.

We stayed here last week after making our selection based off reviews and pictures. We arrive to a dirty home that hasn’t been touched. Dirty clothes, trash everywhere, fruit flies everywhere, ants, etc. I was able to reach the house keeping department and they sent a cleaning crew that evening. Still no resolution for fruit flies, ants, etc. We had food and drink ruined dug to these pests. We were told a property manager would reach out and refund some of our stay. Still nothing and we left Sat. The exterior of the home and outside furniture are in awful shape. Beware when booking.

Great location - needs some updating

Fantastic location - close proximity to everything and nice neighborhood and beaches. Interior of the house was fairly updated with a few things broken here and there. Outdoor furniture was unusable and the two grills at the house were pathetic. Neither could be used and not the quality of the house. Old moldy furniture on all patios was disgusting.

Just okay property

The house is in a great location and nice neighborhood. The house desperately needs a paint job inside and out. You can tell it is a very used and rented house. There was a thick layer of dust on all light fixtures and dust and food under couch/beds. BBQ was super dirty and so gross I would not use it. Wood baseboards in bathroom need to be replaced. Shower curtain rusted and falling apart. Drapes in house coming off hooks. Ceiling in kitchen/ living room water damage and brown marks. Had to call maintenance to put pull out bed back together so would sit up straight. Pots and pans very scratched up. Other than all of that it was great.
