The location is wonderful - so close to the beach. We really enjoyed the outside living space on the lower and upper decks. The kitchen had everything we needed.

These back decks are fabulous, with three nice sitting areas. The large family room overlooks the lower deck, with views of both the bay as well as the lagoon.

We had such an incredible stay for the Iron Man event. A couple family members stayed with us and it was perfect location walking distance to the beach. The host was extremely accommodating for our check-in and checkout times highly recommend to other visitors! Thank you.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Sep 2023
Our family stayed for just under a week at this property. We enjoyed our visit but would likely not return to this property. Great: Location, with a view of the lagoon and beach, lovely outdoor dining area and sitting area with a firepit to sit at night. Good: The host was communicative, outdoor grill, nice assortment of beach chairs, body boards, and family games were provided. Bad: Showers leaked, obvious long-term rental with a lot of deferred maintenance (e.g., bathroom stair detached, hole in wall) stained sheets and towels, debris under couches and beds, etc. The patio door looking out over the lagoon was lovely to keep open, but there was no screen, so bugs would fly in starting around 4 p.m. Ugly: Ventilation fans did not appear to work, mustiness spell permeated the rental, mold in several areas, especially bathrooms. As a result of the mustiness, we ended up leaving a day early.
