Great Location

Walk to restaurant (a good one, and rather iconic since it's been there a very long time - I grew up in the area) & walk to coffee, ocean, but out of the way of crowds for the most part. Clean place and comfortable.

Short but great time!

We owned in the area since 2007 but recently sold. We love coming back to a place we called home for so long and we hope to return. The area was fantastic, the road is a bit noisy but was expected being so close to the ocean and entertainment. Thanks so much.

Nice place but very noisy neighbors

This place is in a great location across the street from the harbor and it is clean and well set up. I would have given it a rating of 5 stars, if the people in the adjacent unit had been reasonably quiet. When I arrived to check in at 4 pm, there was already a party going on next door. Although it was very loud and noisy with many people (the noise level and number of guests were not allowed in the rental agreement I signed), I could have tolerated it, if they had honored the quiet time at 9 pm. Nope, the party just got louder with loud music and people shouting (this seems to happen as people get more drunk). Unfortunately, I felt that I needed to contact the host as I would never be able to sleep and the noise was very disruptive to a pleasant experience at the unit. I got a quick response from the host and the noise ended about 11 pm. The host did provide a partial credit, which I appreciated.

Not as advertised.

My wife and I wanted to spend our 42nd anniversary reliving some of our good times. We had vacationed with our 2 children and numerous other guests for years when previous owner (Billie Paul) rented unit. Unit is clean and updated which is a plus, updating items isn’t always an improvement. Years of sitting on downstairs deck and enjoying the weather and scenery have been replaced by a backyard bistro set with views of other houses. This is a duplex so one unit has had a balcony added, sadly not our unit. Parking is always going to be a problem at this rental, we were expecting it and hoped the unit would be available to at least park our car until the 4:00 check in time. We arrived early hoping that no other cars would be parked so we could go down to beach and walk around the marina without the hassles of parking. No cars were in parking area, we called and asked if we could at least park our car. It was a bit after 2:00 pm and we were told it would not be allowed. So we drove around and wasted time unable to find parking. We ended up being the only guests in both sides of duplex, at no time did anyone park in either spots, both were open unused until we checked in at 4:00. We did message OVR regarding the deck situation, we were told sorry about the misunderstanding and hoped we had a wonderful stay anyways. So our dealing with OVR was not stellar. It is a business and it feels like it. I thought VRBO was rentals by owners not rentals by management company’s.
