Disliked: Communication
The house was impressively spacious and impeccably clean, equipped with dishes, cooking pots, and pans. It exceeded our expectations in size compared to the photos and is conveniently located near the base, as well as various food and gas stations. This makes it an ideal choice for families visiting for events like family day or graduation. The beds were among the most comfortable we have ever experienced. The only drawback was the challenging communication with the property manager; I reached out for details before booking and received no response, which would have been helpful, and I also encountered no reply when I called later in regards to an early check in. If not for this issue, the experience would have been outstanding.

Perfect for a large group

The location of this property is perfect. We could walk to ice cream, coffee, restaurants and while a bit longer, you could walk to The Sands beach. There was ample space for our party of 8, which included 5 adults (no couples), 2 teens and one kid.

We stayed a few days for our son’s graduation from the Marine Corps. The house is very conveniently located about a 10 minute drive to the base. The house is great for families. We found it clean and comfortable.

Disliked: Cleanliness
First the good parts. Very responsive and accommodating hosts. When we needed extra supplies, they were promptly provided. The house was spacious and in a nice, safe neighborhood. The bedrooms were comfortable, dining space ample and kitchen appliances functional.However, there were problems. The kitchen was not cleaned well, superficially, yes, but lots of grime and grease and dust on surfaces, stove and refrigerator. Did not use the overhead fan due to very big build up of dust on top. There was a broken window in the basement, making it open to the outside. There was leaking from pipes onto the basement floor and rug when the shower was in use. The decorations around the house were very dusty. While the stay was pleasant enough and accommodated our large family, it seems they hosts only do a superficial cleaning and either weren’t aware of the problems or chose to ignore them as they were out of sight in the basement (they weren’t new). If more attention was paid to details and more time and effort were put into thorough, detailed cleaning, it would rate another star.

The House was just as advertised and the bonus We did not know about was the wildlife sanctuary just down the road where you could witness hundreds of birds. Then there were turtles, rabbits frogs and even alligators. Great for evening viewing on the boardwalk.
