Nice and Relaxing Stay

We stayed for a long weekend for a big family gathering in the area. Access to the beach was a breeze. Host was very responsive and kindly and quickly mailed back an item that was left behind. We enjoyed relaxing on both the upstair and downstair patios where we could see and hear the ocean.

Great location, quick and easy walk to the beach. The house is very well stocked and worked for our family. Great value for the rental with accurate photos. The spiral staircase is tight! I wouldn’t recommend small children or anyone with mobility issues in the upstairs bedrooms.

Wow, I’m so sorry you felt this way. We have never had problems with mold in our units and never had a review like this. No one lives there full time and we have the furniture cleaned regularly. I wish you would have reached out during your stay to let me know your concerns.

Everything about my stay was perfect, from booking it, and my communications with Valerie (who is on point, kind, and helpful, btw), to the stay itself! Gorgeous unobstructed views of the beach, amazingly gorgeous sunsets to soak in, peaceful and clean home in a perfect location, that has all that you need to enjoy your stay!

Ok

Older home and not clean like we like it. Just not our cup of tee. Good effort just misses the mark. Outdoor shower was best thing and most comfortable place. Furniture was very uncomfortable. Porch was very nice but small. A little bit of investment and cleaning this place could be awesome. Just not that nice

Thank you for your feedback. I would have loved to rectify the situation by having our cleaning crew come out when you first arrived if I had known there were issues. We have not had concerns with cleaning from other guests; I have already spoken with the cleaners about your feedback.

Million Dollar View

Great location with a million dollar view. Beach was a short walk across the street and no other structures block the view of the ocean. Great house for our group of 5 adults. Not recommended for anyone that is handicapped or unable to do steps. Loved being able to take the family dog along with us to the beach.

Great location but a few drawbacks

The location/view are hands down what makes this rental enjoyable. House specific though there were definitely a few things that were not ideal. 1) Upon arrival there were several dead cockroaches outside and throughout both floors of the rental. I communicated with Valerie and she indicated pest control comes monthly, but as a renter I honestly wouldn't have stayed here if I had known about this problem. In addition to the dead cockroaches, I saw a live one on the second day of our rental and it clearly is a problem as I found a dead one in the air vent coming down the stairs from the second floor. I understand pest problems are more likely in older homes, but it wasn't just one bug and was closer to 10 discovered which for someone who hates bugs not somewhere I wanted to sleep. 2) As other reviewers mentioned, there is a dampness problem that the owners are trying to address with multiple damp-rid cans/bags throughout the house. They are trying to tackle the problem but there is a bit of a mustiness to some of the furniture as a result. 3) It is an older home so the electrical took some getting used to as not all switches seemed to do stuff or did and lamps were off so it was a bit playing around sometimes to find the right combinations (was only a bit of a hassle upon arrival as we got in during the dark and with small kids we were trying to find the lights to move our luggage and kids in) and 4) we had three little kids (ages 1-5) and both decks had several rusty screws/nails lying about (i.e. fell out of somewhere and not a situation of being left there intentionally) - so if you have small kids, just check around before letting them explore the deck areas.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2021
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Oct, 2021
Thanks for your feedback. We do have regular pest control. As I had mentioned, I had them come out an extra time prior to your stay which is why you saw some dead water bugs (not roaches, water bugs are a common occurrence at the beach) on your arrival. I will check on the nails on the decks as I have not seen that or had anyone else mention it. As a house built in the 60’s right across the beach from the ocean, we will have dampness in the house. We have a dehumidifier and also the damp rid canisters to help. Unfortunately, there isn’t much we can do about that. The furniture is cleaned regularly and the recliners are brand new.
