The location of the house is wonderful, steps from the beach with great views from much of the house. We didn't use the pool because it was too cold, but it looked inviting. There were a couple of initial issues such as the welcome email with instructions on how to obtain the code never showed up (not in spam either). Additionally, the cleaners had left a door unlocked because it was hard to lock, put together the freezer basket incorrectly so the fridge had an alarm that kept going off and the freezer did not get cold until fixed the following day. The ice maker in the kitchen along with the ice maker in the fridge never produced much ice so we just went and bought some. There were a few other small issues, but since the coffee maker and the TVs worked great - no big deal! The appliances and overall interior are dated but overall the house is comfortable. The house is MUCH larger inside than you expect and can almost get lost down one wing of the house! We basically experienced four seasons the 5 nights we were there and we were comfortable. Biggest knock (outside the welcome email) was construction right next door every day. We did notice quite a few houses having construction done in the area, this can't be helped and it's the season to prepare for summer, but it did put a damper on sitting outside or cracking a door/window to listen to the surf. With that said, we just went to the beach and walked to get away from the noise.
