Overall a Very Nice Stay At A Great Location
First off this is an beautiful location right on Ambersand Beach. You overlook both the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Indian River on the west side, so you are sandwiched between the two bodies of water which is absolutely fantastic.
The only location drawback is it's close proximity to US Highway A1A which is only a stones throw off the back of the house. The speed limit there is 50mph and the traffic noise especially during the day can be quite appreciable. There was beach restoration going on along the Florida coast to repair hurricane damage and from 7am until 5pm every weekday there was a frequent traffic of heavy dump trucks going up and down the highway carrying sand.
I've been to this area many times in years past and usually this stretch of A1A is pretty quiet so unfortunately we just came at a busy time. The noise is mostly noticable when you are in the back part of the house with the doors open, so if you are not an early riser and you are a light sleeper, or if you are sensitive to traffic sounds it could be a bit of an issue.
The house itself is very well maintained which we know is not easy when you are this close to the ocean salt air. It is well furnished and the kitchen has all the basic equipment and appliances which are in good shape. The bedrooms, carpets and floors are clean and well maintained and the bathrooms are modern and nicely designed.
The swimming pool was clean, comfortable and well maintained.
When we arrived at the property it had not been cleaned or prepared for us after the last visitors had departed. We called the owner who immediately arranged for a cleaning crew to come right in on a Sunday evening. He also paid for us to go out to dinner while the crew worked to get things ready. So I have to hand it to Ron for getting things sorted quickly but it was not a good way to start a 2 week rental.
We had a couple friends visit for a few nights during our stay, and although there is just a single open common indoor space incorporating the dining room and living room, we did not feel cramped at all, especially with all the outdoor decks, porches and pool area.
We love the ocean and swam in it several times a day as well as taking many walks, and runs and workouts on the beach. It was also great just sitting looking out at it.
Overall we had a nice relaxing visit in a beautiful place. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular here!
