Check was wonderful. Kitchen facilities were good. It could easily feed 17. Wi-Fi access was good. Transport was fine. We had our own cars but to go to the beach we walked across the street.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·May 2025
House was perfectly located with easy access to the beach. Family of 15 could easily spread out. Bedrooms were spacious. We spent most of our time out by the pool and hot tube; or beach. The littles loved the wading pool. Robin, property manager, was great and quick to respond to questions. Thanks for a great relaxing family vacation!

Spacious, rooms for every family. Great pool and outdoor area. Open floor plan kitchen, dining and living room. Out the back gate and just few steps to an amazing beach. Would definitely rent again. Thanks for a wonderful week!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2021
The house was decorated so nicely. The rooms were all spacious and the view from the decks were wondeful. Location wise I couldnt have asked for better! There was absolutely nothing blocking our views from the decks. For the Cons: the house wasn’t thourougly 5 star cleaned. First night we killed biggest bug/ cockroach. There were alot of gnats also in the house. The third deck bedroom also had roach. I think the house needs to be fumigated. The lower level inlaw suite had some type of wormy thing on one of the pillows. The out door area at night had the most awful sounding frogs. Not sure if it was mating season or what but they were so loud all night long. It seemed to only affecting this house. We decided to grill one day and unfortunately a rat came runnning on the second deck. It very well couldve been a beach rat but it definitely wasnt welcomed. All our stay was good but the bugs and frogs definitely didnt. Also there isnt a pool table but there is a foosball table. The sound system couldve been a great added touch but was a headache to work. We had a broken grill that was replaced as soon as we called but it wasnt fully put together but we figured it out. The property needs a manual, and better cleaning.
