Summer close out

Mixed feelings about this property. The home is comfortable with easy access to beaches and actually fairly quiet for being on Mission. Some small inconveniences that start to add up. The side yard is spacious and great for our dogs but doesn’t have direct house access. Towel hooks would be appreciated. Rotting fruit in front yard from fruit trees. Cannot run microwave and toaster at the same time….tripped the breaker box. Management was super helpful resolving issue. Shower is old so if you’re taller than 5’5”, prepare to squat or take a bath.

Great Location

If you are a surfer....this is your perfect place to stay. Had what we needed for a comfortable stay. The a/c worked great. Only thing that was odd to me is the fact that the owner came on the property a lot when we were there. Also just to note...the garage is not accessible.

Clean and comfortable but missing some essentials

Pleased with the cleanliness, but dismayed to find lack of adequate sccreens in the unit. The bathroom window was open without a screen and there were flies in the unit as a result. The one bedroom screen was not large enough and left space on either end for bugs to come through. Thankfully our daughter, wise as she is, purchased screens for us and we used the ones she brought to screen the windows so we could get air into the uinit. The kitchen while adequate did not have enough eating utensils for the number of sleep accommodations. Sleeping for four with only two knives, two large spoons, fice mismatched forks and a lot of teaspoons. No servings utenils at all. The kitchen light had a faulty switch which to us seemed quite dangerous as it would not shut off easily and when touched lightly by accidnent would turn on. We kept that light over the refreigerator off the entire time of our stay.

Disappointed

Old dirty towels upon arrival and no attention until 10:30 next morning. Faulty dangerous windows that slam shut on their own once open. Kitchen sink leaked onto floor on second day and had to wait for a handyman. Overpriced and no thanks to VRBO for only supporting the host. SHame on you and your fake commercials and promises. Highly overprice

I had a great time here with my pup. The backyard is awesome with a fire pit and grill. Quiet location which I appreciated as I was working remotely. It’s walking distance to tourmaline beach which is really nice. Highly recommend and will be back!
