Pros: House was beautiful and well equipped. The check in was simple. A text to give you the house code, check on how things are going, reminders about exiting duties and farewell wishes. We needed a new gas tank for the grill and the realty company responded right away. The house has a well stocked kitchen has many pots, pans, utensils, glasses, plates, etc… Loved the decks and deck seating with the ocean views. You can really see and hear the ocean from the house too! Very close to the beach access. The beach is not in a crowded area. Maybe a con for some, but you will definitely get your stair climbing exercise in;). Located in a nice quiet neighborhood very close to the main bike paths and Emerald Isle Woods park just across Coast Guard Road. They provide 2 beach style bikes, but we ended up bringing our own. The park is great for viewing the sunsets.Con’s: The “pet friendly” amenity is misleading as there are no pets signs posted the fenced in backyard/pool area. Loved the privacy and seating of the backyard, but the many uncut hanging vines produced lots of pollen bits in the pool and hot tub that we ended up scooping and splashing away often. Also, there were ant hills in the backyard and in the patio pavers especially near the table. You have to be careful to watch for ants if eating outside. The outdoor shower’s hot water didn’t produce any water, so sadly, we didn’t use it. Lots of stairs.
