When we arrived, there was a lot of sand everywhere. Multiple rooms had sand in beds. The upstairs had a ton of sand all over the floor and dog hair. Downstairs the trash cans still had trash from previous visitors. Seems the Cleaners did not do a good job. We sent a message through Vrbo to the realty company and never heard back. Very poor communication and they never addressed the issue. Overall, this stay was good other than the issue with messy house. Pool and hot tub were a hit.

Thank you for rating your stay at WH501: Follow The Sun. I’m very sorry the cleanliness fell short such as sand in beds, dog hair, and leftover trash are unacceptable. I’m glad the pool and hot tub were a hit. If you’d like to share any additional details so we can address them with the owner and our teams, please send them through your Vrbo message. Kind regards, Village Realty

Beautiful property. Well-maintained. Loved the decor and the layout. Terrific location- in vicinity of shops, restaurants. Quick walk to the beach - the boardwalks are a great bonus. Very private home- loved the deer on the property!

Heat the pool pre/post season while it’s open. Pool was frigid. Decking is new-ish. But looks unfinished. The posts need either capped off or cut to look like someone cared if it appears finished. Attention to detail for cleaning crew was lacking. None of the trash cans had liners. The dining table chairs were scattered around in disarray. Details matter!Two of the three bathroom sinks drained slow. Needs attention! Put the cleaning instruments in a closet. The air purifier/humidifier was absolutely disgusting see pics
Air purifier/humidifier
Trash can need to have the liner properly placed. DONT BE LAZY!!!

Our very short visit was a glimpse at how nice our week could have been. The proximity to the beach was good but the pool made returning to house just perfect. Great size pool! The house was ok but had a musty smell. After the ac got going it helped it but it lingered. Not to the extent that it deterred you from enjoying your time there. The carpet at the top of the stairs in the kitchen/dining area needs to be replaced as it is a definite eye sore as you reach the top floor. Still not anything to keep you from enjoying your stay. Beds were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked for any cooking needs. Thanks to florence tho it was quite an abbreviated visit.

Loved the house and decor. The pool was wonderful and the location was perfect with the boardwalk all the way to the beach for the kids and getting all your stuff there. So much nicer and safer than walking in the street. It's closeness to the grocery store, shopping and the lighthouse can't be beat. Beautiful house, perfect for our family, we will be back!!!!
