First thing I have to say about this house is that it completely knocked our socks off when we walked in the front door! I really can't say enough great things about this house and the hosts, Cody and Jenesa. They were very attentive, without being "helicoptor parents." Not only did they provide us with some wonderful snacks/beverages when we arrived, but we really appreciated all the little touches to make us feel welcome. As for the house itself, it was super clean, the bedrooms are very comfortable, and the kitchen was a joy to use. The bathrooms are all amazing - the heated toilets after swimming in the cold sea water are a plus! We had our 10-month-old grandson with us, and we had everything we needed to make his stay more home-like, such as the crib and baby gate. The beach access was easy just by walking over to the rock stairway one house over. One thing to note is that you will need to climb a few steps to get in/out of the house, so for our 81-year-old mom it took some time, but once she was upstairs, she was very comfortable. We spent an obscene amount of time in the arcade and had a ton of fun. Honestly, the arcade was one of the selling points when we were looking for a house, and it didn't disappoint! Rockaway Beach is a cute little town with a few shops and some good restaurants (we enjoyed Bravo's for a family meal in town). Thank you, Cody and Janesa for a great stay! Would recommend over and over again!
