German Sheperd lives above this unit and eats dog bones that is extremely loud. The owners charged me an additional 120 for 2nd cleaning that I just found out that I was not obliged to pay per VRBO! The unit's location was truly 1 block from the beach. But there is construction right across the street that is not conducive to serenity. The parking is not always available. For the price, I would not recommend this place!

Being our 1st time doing STR I was very pleased with everything. Easy entry instructions .. Parking was pretty good (construction going on) . Easy access to the beach. Loved my early & late walks along the beach with my dog. (oh yeah, Pet Friendly too) .. the only thing missing was (maybe) a hook in the bedroom. Kinda tight in there.Definitely looking forward to another visit.

Wonderful location

This property is located in a beautiful neighborhood 1 block from the fabulous Windansea Beach. The apartment made very good use of the square footage and was roomy enough for our needs. The back patio added to the feeling of space. Nice remodel, comfortable bed. 2 of us stayed there 2 weeks and would stay there again. The only negative aspect is entering the building you walk through the trash can alley to get to the door. But we always felt safe and enjoyed coming ‘home’ to the cozy apartment.

A Whisper Away From the Beach

The location makes this place worth it, no question. It's just up the hill from Windansea Beach, so you can dart down to stroll, scramble over the rocks, set out your towel or watch pelicans. It is small (*really* small on rainy days!) and the kitchen fixings are very basic. The neighborhood has largely kept its charm, but there is lots of new construction (which, alas, could be loud.) Really glad we chose this overall.

Review of Beachcomber

The location was great! It was near the shoreline and quiet. The private patio was nice. Very clean, but small, with mirrored walls in every room, which made it appear larger online. It was quite stark in terms of supplies. It would have been nice to have coffee filters, coffee, creamer, and sugar/sweetener. Additionally, there was a lack of bar soap and shampoo in the bathroom. We were required to resupply the toilet paper, trash bags, and wash the beach towels. We also had to rearrange the furnishings to fit the essential floor fan into the cramped bedroom. A pool was mentioned online, but there was none.

Wind and Sea

Small but ok for a week! Entrance not very nice as you go past several garbage cans. Some things that should be addressed are as follows. Both chairs on the patio have broken seats! Beach chairs are rusty and very dirty. Front of the sink in the kitchen is peeling and needs repair. It could be a nice spot as the location is great. Just needs some attention to detail.

Experience

The suite is at a fantastic location. 1 block from the beach. You can walk to shops, restaurants and grocery stores within 20 -30 min. The suite is in a great neighborhood and felt very safe when out walking. We used Uber to get around. The suite is a bit old with an updated bathroom but overall a great place and i would definitely come back again. Pictures are accurate. Owners replied quickly with any questions. Thankyou for the great time we had.
