The property's location and price make it an absolute steal - it's located three quarters of a mile from the beach, and half a mile from shops and restaurants. You can literally can literally park your car and walk to all the major attractions.

This was a very nice place to stay and very convenient to everything around . My only complaint was the cleanliness of the place. Dirty towels were left in the closet and not removed. I am not sure our bed linens were changed as the bag to remove linens was left on the porch. We had to sweep the floors. The chairs on the porch for gas grill were rusted and deck was dirty. Other than that our stay was great. Perhaps change the instructions to leave dirty towels in the bathroom floors which is what I did so that housekeeping has sight of them to remove before next guest.

Excellent Location

This house is nested in a lovely neighborhood just a short walk from the beach! Could not get a better location. Unfortunately the kitchen had dirty pans and utensils and cups left outside. The patio furniture is in serious need of replcement and unlike usual vrbo experiences this house didnt even have soap for guests. It is managed by a 3rd party which was odd given normally only go through vrbo but with extra management we expected even better quality that was sadly not the case.

the decks need pressure washing. my husband slipped walking out to the back deck. Rug slipped that was at the door Very slimmy. also the front deck to the screened door. Needs pressure washing, slippery and slimmy. Maybe add some anti slip grip take for the steps. Nails on the deck need to be hammered in My so cut his foot on one of the nails sticking out. We brought paper products. Was surprised no extra trash bags or salt & pepper. Maybe hang some damp rid bags in the closets. But overall we thought the place was perfect for what we needed.
