House was as described. Beach access was close, ample parking, beds were comfy, pool and hot tub were great! - all linens and towels provided which is a nice touch. A few hiccups at the start with kitchen items not being useable, but issues were resolved promptly by management company. We had a nice week at A Whale of a Time! .

Cozy House Near The Beach

This house was perfect for my partner & two friends. We had a great relaxing time. You can see the ocean from the balcony. Had a wonderfully huge backyard & fire pit area. This house is just a short walk to the beach. I would recommend this property.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
The location was great. The house was very nice but needed to be maintained. Every exterior doors and all furniture was moldy. Garden debris in the pool area. Thorny weeds growing through the fence and across the patio near the hot tub. Only 1 exterior water spigot working. Inside was clean. The oven needs to be repaired and called for service but could not get through to the agency. Supplied vacume cleaner did not work. Wall mounted light in master bedroom broken and just hanging. Many torn screens
