Absolutely superb house and location with a clean and minimalist design, and simply top-notch views. We found a way to enjoy every area of the house, primarily the rooftop terrace and second-floor living room. I'm pretty sure we kept the large doors there open our entire stay. Everything in the area is extremely walkable as well. We enjoyed walking to breakfast, drinks, and dinner, and then would cap everything off with a fire out on the beach just a few steps away. Also, it was very easy to communicate with the host (Todd) whether over text or through the app. There were four of us, all friends since 2003, and we truly couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for our 20 year college reunion.

Loved the location. Close to restaurants, shopping and easy access to the beach. Owner is very responsive. We had a great time.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2022
The house itself and the location is prime. Todd is very responsive. The house amenities desperately needs upgrading. When I chose this house to rent, I was under the impression that inside was going to just like the pictures. Not of it was true. I paid a lot of money and I expected a lot more. Pillows were so small. Molds are showing in the bathrooms. Kitchen items are old. The inside really needs to be updated along with the furnishings. We did not do any laundry since the washing machine had a very bad odor when someone would leave their laundry for days and not drying it. Again, the house really needs to be updated for the cost of renting. Otherwise, the location is prime.
