10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
Nice comfortable place on the beach. Upper terrace is small. Better quality toilet paper and paper towels would be nice. No laundry detergent. Close to pier and parking area so it’s a bit busy. Not a big deal though.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Good unobstructed ocean view. Unfortunately noisy mornings because of machinery working on beach side. Interior was decent. Minimalistic beach decor. Some walls with preexisting scuffs/dents markings. Beds could definitely be better, very squeaky with anyone sitting on them or any slight movement. Also, 30 steps to get to main house floor and other multiple stairs to get in between rooms in house. We had elderly parents so this was difficult on them. Lastly, the upstairs truly has tiny outdoor patio only for about 3 persons. Overall good stay, but lacking in comfort while sleeping.

The house was exactly what we expected. The beach access and the volley ball was great. a lot going on in the area. Enjoyed it a lot.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2022
We were hoping from the pictures that it was oceanfront, but it’s quite a walk to where the water was. It’s ocean view. Wish we knew about how awful the parking was because we had 2 large SUV’s and it was horrible to park especially the streets were very narrow. Also the hike up each flight of stairs is awful! My grandma was with us on oxygen and there are stairs everywhere all over the house and many flights up to the living area and it was narrow. Also bring your own pilllows. We got very flat pillows and only 2 on the master bedroom. Other than that, it’s pretty clean . I just wouldn’t recommend the stairs w young children and the elderly.
