Nice weekend family beach getaway

Great location! Easy access to the beach. House was clean and kitchen had everything we needed. All the technology worked and was easy to understand. Check in and check out were seamless. Only issue was we had no hot water for our showers. Water pressure was pretty low and water never got more than luke warm. When we got back from the beach the first day there was no water coming out of the outdoor shower, however, after contacting the host that was fixed immediately and we were able to enjoy the amenity after returning from the beach the second day. Overall it was a great place for us to meet up with our kids and grandkids for a quick Father’s Day beach weekend.

Great location, beautiful house

The house was exactly as described. Layout was great for family with four kids and a grandma. The house was stocked with everything we needed. Very clean and the location was excellent. It was a 9 minute walk to coffee shop and surf shop. Will definitely come back!

Unit was clean and modern, can comfortably accommodate 4-6 adults, only two baths.

Overpriced for the size of the rental, parking was not adequate, garbage receptacle was almost full.
