House is nice but in need of maintenance and updating. Outside light needed on the stair case going down to parking, my daughter fell down the steps and hurt herself in the dark. Upstairs windows leak when it is raining hard, also got rain dripping from ceiling in kitchen, possibly from the upstairs window. Loved from the deck and the closeness to the beach, much easier access for senior citizens. Had constant issues with the internet while we were there, was off more than on.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The reason for the 4-stars was due to a slight issue we had when we arrived, we were unable to access the keyless entry with the provided code. Once we contacted the owners, they were able to open it up the remotely.Housekeeping service was great and the house itself was awesome. A few short steps and you are right on the beach. There is plenty of furniture on the outside deck, for those who prefer to stay closer to the house.Shopping and restaurants just minutes away!Highly recommend.

Communication was fine but we rented a pet restricted property because one renter has severe allergies. Before she could sleep the first night, she had an allergy attack. She was miserable and had to leave. When reported, the response was not acceptable. DO NOT RENT IF ALLERGIC. It had great ocean views and access. Essentials for the kitchen. Hot and cold spots through the house was annoying. Roasting upstairs but cold down. I rent at the beach frequently. This won't be on our club resource list. Best we could say was it was ok with great beach access.

Great house for beach week with my sister’s family! We had 3 adults and 5 kids didn’t feel crowded for most things - would have liked a little more seating in the living room for movie nights, but there were enough extra pillows and blankets to make it work. Love being directly on the beach! It’s right next to a public beach access point, but it never got too crowded on the sand or in the water. Plenty of beach equipment in the closet and very convenient outdoor shower and clotheslines underneath the house. The only little blip was the cleaning crew was running late and was still there at check in time. The owner let me know beforehand, and communicated well when needed. Overall was an excellent stay!

Accessing the beach was a challenge as there was a 4 ft drop to the beach. Host was great with communication! Flexible - we were able to check in early which was really appreciated. Place was very clean and beds comfortable. House was very dated and needs major updates. Sliding doors to the deck were fixed in place and cannot be opened, not all windows were operational.

We had a great time staying here! Check in was seamless, the views are beautiful, beach access is easy, and the kitchen had nearly everything we wanted for cooking (including basic cooking essentials like olive oil, salt, and pepper). There were some things that were definitely a little bit worn like the outdoor furniture, but overall the house was in good condition. The hosts are very responsive, which is so appreciated!

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location on the ocean is great. However, the condition is bad. The house was very unclean when we arrived. The floors were extremely sandy. The windows filthy. The rugs and carpets are stained and filthy. The toilet was not cleaned and had dry feces in the bowl. Therefore, I am sure it had not been cleaned at all. The refrigerator drawers had debris in them. The kitchen window was dirty and had dead flies in the seal. The outside shower had a soiled diaper and the grounds outside had numerous pieces of trash. There were two broken grills under the porch area. When I contacted the owner about the issues, she offered to send the cleaning person over to clean. We did not want someone to come and clean while we were starting our vacation. She did refund the cleaning fee after I reminded her. I literally vacuumed a half a gallon or more of sand from the house. With the price of this house and a cleaning fee one would expect it to be clean. As far as the furnishings go, the furniture is not in the best condition. The fixtures are in need of repair, and the bedrooms are overcrowded with too much furniture. I am providing an honest review for anyone who wants a clean house. I had to spend valuable vacation time cleaning before we felt comfortable there. I only listed a portion of the issues. The owner did not seem concerned about the issues. Cleanliness is very important to me. I took pictures and sent them to her. The pictures listed don't match current condition of the home.

Great stay! Location was amazing being right on the beach. It was an easy walk down to the beach as well. The closet was full of beach supplies such as boogie boards, chairs and buckets/shovels for kids. Also nets to catch little fish in the ocean which was a favorite for my kids. Crabbing in the evening with flashlights was a hit too! It was big enough to have our own space when needed but small enough to be cozy and gather with family. We spent a lot of time on the deck in the evenings. Having the linen package was helpful. A great value for this location.

The house has had a cheap makeover without significant improvements. The cabinets throughout are cheap a need replacing. The kitchen is all the lowest grade equipment (cheaply redone cabinets, laminate countertops, cheap fridge without ice maker or filtered water). The bathrooms were old and not made over. One of the bedrooms had not been remodeled at all. And the air conditioning was not reliable. For the price, the quality was just not what it should have been.
