Good property with minor flaws

The property itself is a nice setup. The house is nice and set up great from groups/extended family. The kitchen is well stocked, the walk to the beach was short, and the pool was incredible. We only had one issue while we were there with the biggest ones being the ants! There were so many and not just outside but inside as well. The downstairs bedroom had ants all over the wall, one of the bathrooms downstairs was covered, and even 2 different walls upstairs were also covered. And I'm not talking just a couple. I did message to see if we could get this fixed and when the man showed up to spray, he sprayed the outdoor trash cans (also very much covered) and left. They never did come back with anything for the inside. That was our largest complaint. The only other issue really was the cleanliness of the place. I'm not a super neat freak but it was like they didn't sweep the floors before we checked in. There were pieces of fake nails in a few locations, some food wrappers on the trundle bed, and a good amount of sand in the house (I know it's impossible to get it all). The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed except potholders and a corkscrew. Overall the property was good and we really loved the location.

First time beach trip

Wonderful place...close to beach access. Lots of room...although the downstairs bedrooms experienced lots of annoying noise from the tables and chairs above them...even people walking across the floor.

Comfortable and Clean

Upon arrival, the beach house was very clean and orderly. We were very impressed with the beautiful updated pool area. Access to the beach was perfect. The kitchen was well stocked with kitchenware. The bathrooms could have more storage options for toiletries and hooks for towels. All in all it is a great house.
