Beach weekend

I do love the distance from the beach in regards to walking. The downside would be there is no vehicle access close. Or at least I was not able to find any. Maybe add the nearest vehicle beach access to the listing

Nice Stay

The place is nice, has a well-appointed kitchen, nice beds, furnishings, and bathrooms. A few issues that could be addressed include: shaky bunk bed, empty Dorito's bag under one bed and a Cheeto under one of the sheets in another bed, not enough TP, and WiFi never worked. But we did enjoy our 3-night stay!

Close to the beach

Loved how close this home was to the beach. The neighborhood is cute and quiet. House furnishings could stand to be updated to be more comfortable. Overall it was fine for the couple of days we were there.

Perfect setting

Best spot for my beach experience. I’m close enough to walk. I can see the water from the couch. The front porch is my favorite view to sit outside. This house isn’t too close to another house either. This is my second time staying at this house.

Great lil vacay

Clean, well maintained, useful and convenient amenities. I’d like to suggest a shower chair in at least one bathroom for safety with those with poor mobility or balance issues. Beds were very uncomfortable, I’d suggest memory foam toppers or something. Our rest was poor we all woke up hurting. The location was perfect, house was pretty clean with the exception of dog fur, chew toys and dust under couch. Overall I’d definitely rent again if bed issue is addressed.

Thanksgiving

The property is average at best. House needs work. Flooring was separating at seams. Trip hazard. Doors had been honed so they opened properly as house must have shifted and lots of paint needed in inside. Deck was adequate. Kitchen utensil and pots and pans were garage sale quality at best. Parking was horrible. 2 vehicles at best and parking was in grass. Should not be advertised as sleeps 10. Sleeps 6 at best. Couches are not for sleeping. House was overpriced for what we received. And, it was for sale. Ugh. Owners not putting money into it. Very obvious. CG

Enjoyed!

We really enjoyed the place. Good location and decent price. Plenty of space, quiet neighborhood. Parking was a bit difficult since no concrete drive and not allowed to park under the house like other houses. Little things need attention like some new pans and the extra queen bed needs replaced. Really needs to hire a new cleaning crew. Cabinet doors, handles, light fixtures and baseboards need a lot of attention along with some of the walls have dust/ webs. Other then the cleaning portion, we would rent again if that was taken care of.

Had To Cancel Reservation

Unfortunately, upon arrival, the home was not thoroughly cleaned. In fact, only 1 of the 4 beds were made. We couldn't locate sheets to make the beds. The toilet had to be fixed. I also had to sweep and mop the floor, wipe down the couches, and clean the refrigerator upon arrival. One of the mattresses was completely sunken in. Even with all of that, we were going to make the best of it and stay. Until I woke up and 5:00 am with a bed bug bite. The bed bug was in fact crawling on me and I killed it with my hand, only to have my hand full of blood. This property should not even be listed with the cleanliness issues it's having. Additionally, there were flying ants in the kitchen. Do not recommend it.

NIce Place

Great location. No complaint with the beds. Some of the dishes were dirty, so we had to clean them before using. An ashtray on the deck was full of cigarette butts. There was no laundry detergent, so we had to go to The Big Store for that. The bathrooms have tiny shampoo/conditioner like a hotel...not a fan. There was also tiny bar soap...once again, not a fan. Nothing serious. Those were just a few minor details that the manager should address. Other than that, I would recommend it to others.

The location was perfect! Loved the views but very disappointed with a couple things -there is a roach infestation in the home, they were all in the kitchen and also in a room crawling the walls!!! Pretty disgusting waking up to roaches, specially in the kitchen we had to throw out a couple things due to the issue! Needs to get taken care of ASAP - the cleanliness wasn’t the best, the restrooms were a bit dirty - the bedrooms have bad mattresses some are too hard and others sink in the middle.

Great Stay

The property was just as expected, as detailed in the listing! We were pleasantly surprised that a Keurig had been added to the kitchen appliances! When we arrived, the house was clean and cool! The deck is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail. You can hear the relaxing sound of the surf, as well as the beautiful view, any time of day! The downstairs area is super nice and spacious for a relaxing cookout, or just sitting and chatting with friends/family! We couldn’t seem to get the DirectTV to work, so I made a call to the property manager, and within 15, a very nice fella (I forgot his name) arrived and showed us how to access it! So FYI, on the TV’s menu, don’t choose “satellite “, choose “cable” that’s where whomever programmed the TV put it! We would most definitely stay here again, and we’ve already recommended the property to a couple of friends! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! ***The guest room bath needs a stopper for the tub. My grand baby had to take his baths in the master bathroom, because there was no way to plug up the drain. I would also suggest the addition of a television to the master. Not a deal breaker of course, just a suggestion.
