We chose not to bring our pet this vacation. There was a house between us and the ocean, but you could see the ocean from this vacation home. It was peaceful to sit out on the balcony and enjoy our brunch. We really enjoyed our time here and found the vacation home clean and cozy for our family. We would be happy to stay here again sometime and plan on telling our friends about this place.

This is a nice property in a great location. Priced very well. Needs a few updates but very comfortable. Be sure to walk down to the 19th Street boardwalk over Davis Canal... stunning, especially at sunset. Easy walk to the beach access and pier.

Property was fine. The stove top did not work...only 1 burrner (a small one) sort of worked. It would not get hot enough to boil water. Perhaps some updated linens n towels would help. Great location to the ocean.

Great location! The door lock didn’t work (wrong code?), the stove had several burners out, and there were dirty dishes put away as clean. Older house but otherwise clean.

This property was fine for our purpose. Even though the property is dated and basic, it was not too far from the beach access and fairly close to local establishments (grocery stores and restaurants).

Had an appliance issue pretty early in the stay which was taken care of in a timly manner. Matt was very responsive and very helpful. I would stay again. If your a dog person then you will love the house as it has characteristics of a dog owners home. You have to stay to see what I mean.

Location was great and it allowed us to bring our dogs. The house itself was not. Felt dirty as soon as we arrived. One of the beds had a huge stain on the sheet. We were told we could find a clean sheet in the closet, but it didn’t fit well. The ceiling plaster was chipping away and crumbling. The freezer door wouldn’t stay closed. Some of the burners on the range only worked part of the time. When a cockroach appeared coming out of the recliner, we knew we were in for a long week. Disappointed with the condition of the house.

Awesome location-Perfect porch

Great location for 2-6 people (3 bedrooms/2bath) and dogs with easy access to the beach, grocery stores, and shops. Fantastic deck to greet the morning sun and relax and look at the stars at night. Host included linens and towels which was a big plus. So grateful to find an affordable house that is walking distance to the beach that allows pets.

Lacking cleanliness

We really loved the location of this property. The property needs many updates but I could over look that if the house was clean. Hair on the sheets, food and such on the carpets. The vinyl floors were very dirty. The owners response was he would tell the cleaners but no one came to fix the problem.
