Our stay was very comfortable and the cleanliness was the best we’ve experienced in a rental.
Our last min decision to go to the beach for the new year couldn’t have been better. Vista Mar was in the perfect location for walks to the beach and all the restaurants and stores. The house was spotless and we felt right at home with the coziness and the backyard was fun to enjoy the day and evening we weren’t on the beach.
I very much recommend Vista Mar!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at VistaMar! The house was spotless, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable — exactly as described, if not better. The ocean views were stunning, and being just a short walk from the beach made the location truly unbeatable.The outdoor space was my favorite spot — the main level patio was perfect for relaxing with a morning coffee and the top sun deck was perfect for enjoying the ocean breeze in the evening. The putting green was such a fun bonus and made the stay feel even more special!Welcome Home Rentals was fantastic — friendly, responsive, and genuinely thoughtful. They provided clear check-in instructions and added little touches that made the stay feel extra special.Waking up to the sound of the ocean and ending the day with a sunset view made this stay unforgettable. We'd happily come back and highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway with a great host!
