This is a beautiful home in a wonderful location. Plenty of space to spread out and the upstairs/downstairs suites makes it wonderful for two families traveling together. Kitchen was exceptional and fully stocked for cooking, which we did every night. Heated pool was wonderful even in late October and we used it every day. Private backyard was great and outdoor grill worked very well. House was exceptionally clean upon check in and all linens provided. Check in and check out directions were clear and easy to follow. Self check in was a breeze, and Seachange (rental agency) was able to allow us to check in early and out late, which was a pleasant and appreciated surprise. House is well constructed so very quiet even though on a busy street. All TVs (Including cable and many streaming apps) and WiFi worked very well throughout the house. WiFi was strong enough to work and do school remotely. Plenty of seating space to spread out and relax, and plenty of dining space for large dinners if you want that. Fantastic location is two blocks from beach and 1 block from restaurants, shops, bars. Cons: Advertised fireplace has been completely disabled. Drain in soaker tub was disabled so that was also completely unusable. Only 2 spaces in driveway and not 3 as advertised. MD Ave is very noisy with a lot of truck traffic and there is currently a huge construction project on 2nd and MD so front porch unusable due to noise during our stay. Also during our stay, the house ran out of propane which meant no hot water, no cooking, and no heated pool for one full day and we had to stay home to deal with propane delivery, etc which is not what you want to do on vacation. Rental agency (Seachange) was extremely responsive to issues when notified but needs to do a better job of checking out house pre rental and preventing issues like running out of propane before they come up. Rental agency offered refund of less than 5% of total rental cost for issues experienced during our stay which was not adequate compensation. Overall house was very nice and met our needs well and I would recommend. Four stars instead of five due to preventable maintenance issues and certain advertised amenities like fireplace and soaker tub not being available during our stay.
