Location! Location! Location! You can't beat the location! The house was decorated so nicely and had a great layout between the bedrooms and common areas. The beach was literally at the bottom of the front steps and having an outdoor shower to rinse off at the end of the day was great. The beds and pillows were so much more comfortable that other rental properties we've stayed in and the kitchen was well stocked as far as plates, cups, and utensils, but there were no convenience-type things you often find leftover in rentals like salt and pepper or cooking spray. There also was no can opener, which made cooking challenging until we got one. A couple of things to note- the dishwasher is old, doesn't work well, and has mildew in the door, so we hand washed most of our dishes. The ice maker in the freezer barely works, so we ended up having to buy ice. Lastly, the front 2 bedrooms only have white, sheer curtains covering the wall-sized sliding glass doors, so you can see right through them and so can the sun at the crack of dawn! Other than those few things, we loved the house and would book again- we really enjoyed our time there!

Thank you, Emily, for sharing your experience with us. We’re thrilled to hear that you loved the location and found the house beautifully decorated and comfortable. It’s wonderful to know that the layout worked well for your group and that you enjoyed the convenience of the outdoor shower after a day at the beach. We appreciate your feedback regarding the kitchen supplies and the dishwasher. We strive to provide a well-stocked kitchen, and we’re sorry to hear that some essentials were missing. We’ll definitely look into the issues with the dishwasher and ice maker to ensure a better experience for future guests. Your comments about the curtains are also valuable, and we’ll consider options to enhance privacy and comfort. It means a lot to us that you would book again despite these challenges. We’re committed to making every stay as enjoyable as possible, and we hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable getaway.

Great stay on the beach

It was a wonderful stay. The cushioned chairs on the deck and powered leather recliners in the house were so comfortable. The view was awesome, seeing dolphins right off the shore and watching the pelicans dive for fish.
