Family vacation
Check in process was a bit strange . Arrived at house and the door was open with nobody on site . Confusing parking situation. Called Vicasa and the representative was offsite and offered little help. House was not supper clean + no cleaning supplies at property to touch up. Overall it’s a great property and the location was great . Would definitely return again but just a little frustrated with the things I mentioned. Overall great stay !

Dirty but great location.
Was not cleaned prior to our 4 pm checkin. Garbage left in all the cans, dirty towels left on floor, beds not made, linens stank and were dirty, food left on tables in refrigerator and on counters. Place needs painted. Given wrong wifi info. Originally responsive to complaints but never came to a resolution. Cleaning people eventually arrived rushed through left dirty bed linens and food. Had to wash bed sheets, blankets and bathroom rug.
Great location and rooftop space thou. Could be a great place.
Sad the experience started the way it did. More frustrating there was no resolution. Free dinner was offered but when we said there was ten of us the communication went silent…

Great for a long weekend
The property was exactly as pictured. It was incredibly well stocked which made for easy prep for our long, Thanksgiving weekend. The location, right off the main road, makes it easy to get to all the surrounding attractions within minutes. The property manager was always available, even over the holiday. They were very responsive in fixing our door when the lock battery needed replaced.

Perfect location! Felt like a 5 star hotel!
We were blown away by the look of this house. The bathrooms and kitchen were very modern and high end! It was less than a block to the beach, restaurants and bars. We could not have asked for a better property! OHHH and sooooo well stocked!

Best Dewey rental yet!
We have been traveling to Dewey as a family for 10+ years now (I’ve been going since Age 4 myself) and this was our best rental yet. What a gem to have found when we learned our rental of the last 7 years had sold. Can’t wait to return.
Everything from reservation through Check Out was great. Communication exceptional on all fronts.
Thank you!

Friends Trip
Had a great time, the property was very clean. Parking is very strict and received several automated noise texts when just listening to music in the middle of the day. But the house was very nice.
