The internet was awful. We stayed until some repairs were done on our house so we thought we could stay and do a little work which required the internet. If you rely on the internet like (tv, school, work related) Don't think this is the place for you. Other than that it was pleasant and comfy.

Thank you for the review and for noting the convenient location and cozy atmosphere. I'm sorry you experienced intermittent Wi‑Fi/TV connectivity and a clogged shower drain after use. We've had a technician review the internet and TV setup to improve streaming reliability, and a plumber has cleared and inspected the drain so this shouldn't recur. We appreciate the feedback — it helps us improve. Thank you for staying with us.

Pet friendly and for the most part updated. Locks gave us issues and the shower curtain was moldy and filthy. The property was I available the first night and that caused us issues.

Driftwood was in a perfect location for what we wanted to do, it was very clean, and comfortable, and communication with the host was excellent. Our biggest frustration was that the WiFi was very inconsistent, especially while trying to watch tv. Also, the only hooks or place to hang clothes were the 3 small hooks in the kitchen.

Thank you for your review. I'm happy the location worked well for your plans and that you found the home clean and comfortable. I'm sorry the WiFi was inconsistent and interrupted your streaming — we will speak with the provider about what can be done to improve the connectivity. Thank you, too, for the note about the hooks. Thank very much for the helpful feedback.

The place was clean and as advertised. I couldn't get ahold of any real person.The roku only allowed us to watch tv channels. When I complained to host I believed I got a text from a virtual host. It told me how to possibly fix the system (not connected to internet) but my husband used his phone and I used by computer. Usually I can talk to real person and get things worked out fairly quckly. It felt very impersonal and not concerned with my needs. For the price I paid each night I should have received better service. I saw Kevin's phone number on a sign by entrybut it was too late being that we were leaving after 3 day visit.

Smaller than expected but nice. Some good f the furniture was broken (chest of drawers) on arrival. Access to the beach was fabulous and worth booking in and of itself. I will note that if you plan to cook meals this isn’t the ideal spot. The kitchen was poorly stocked in terms of basic cooking essentials (no salt, pepper, olive oil) and dishes. The fridge is tiny so I’m glad we didn’t do a grocery shop on our way in. Overall it was perfect for what we needed this weekend and would be nice for maximum of three people (even though it does technically sleep 6).

Thank you for highlighting the beach access — I'm happy that was a key part of your stay. I'm sorry the broken chest of drawers and the kitchen supply took away from an otherwise great stay. The maintenance team is replacing the drawer pull and we will be working with the owner to improve the kitchen inventory. Thank you very much for the feedback.

This was a cute little place. I wish I noticed there was no washer / dryer however. There is a laundromat down the road but we didn’t have much time for that. The place is a quick walk / access to the beach and loved the flooring for sand cakes pups. I did purchase a broom to keep up on the sand. The little vacuum wasn’t cutting it. Bedrooms were a decent size and beds cozy. Decor was giving the beach cottage vibes. Close to all amenities as well.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm happy the coastal decor, cozy beds, and the easy beach walk all contributed to a pleasant stay. I will notify the housekeeping team that the vacuum needs serviced or replaced, thank you so much for purchasing a new broom in the meantime. That was beyond kind!

Pros: Clean, pet friendly, beds are comfortable, very close to the beach, accessible management company.Cons: The kitchen is sparsely equipped. The couch was not comfortable. The bedrooms are very small with very little space to even place your luggage/bags. We had trouble with the wifi. There was one fork in the whole unit. We were able to get help with the wifi from the management company but then after they left, the TVs wouldn't connect. We asked repeatedly for more forks and no one ever delivered, even after someone was there in person to help with the wifi. Overall, the problems were fairly minimal, but we wouldn't recommend this spot if people like to spend time in their VRBO rentals. It would be fine if you just need a spot to sleep.

Thank you so much for highlighting the cleanliness, comfortable beds, pet-friendly setup, and easy beach access. We’re sorry the kitchen felt under-equipped, especially the lack of forks, and that the Wi-Fi and TV issues weren’t fully resolved. We have since replenished the silverware supply and will have housekeeping do a full kitchen inventory audit, as well. The maintenance team has also remedied the internet connectivity issues, too. We truly appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback.

Thank you for staying with us and for the review. I’m sorry your stay didn’t earn five stars. I apologize the outlets in one bedroom weren’t working — that should not have happened and I understand how inconvenient that was. We checked on this the day you checked out and determined it was a tripped GFCI outlet causing the issues. We got that reset and everything is working as it should be. Please message us through the Vrbo app with any additional details you’d like to share. Thank you again for the feedback.

Nice Cottage Near the Ocean

We found the place to be just what we were expecting from the photos! A cute little cottage near the ocean with easy access to the beach. It was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed for a great stay. When there was a minor issue with the door access keypad during our stay, the owner responded within minutes to ensure it was resolved as quickly as possible. I would definitely stay here again.

Escape to sweet town if Rockaway

The location is perfect with that small town feel and soft sandy beach..our vrbo was quant and pleasing but the floors were dirty when we got there, made our socks brown, needs to be mopped and the couch was incredibly hard and uncomfortable which was disappointing after a lot of hiking.
