House was perfect. Located just a row off the beach. Easy walking distance. Clean and alot of room to move around. Outside balcony was our favorite and spent every night on it.

The house was great and the hosts were very helpful!
8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2024
The location is great, 2nd row, partially obstructed view of the beach. There are two charcoal grills that were old, rusted and not clean, we had to clean them prior to use. Which is not a big deal, it was better than going out to eat. The bedding could be upgraded as well as the master mattress, still things I can deal with. My main complaint is the air conditioning would not cool the house during the day. They ask that you turn the temp to 75 when you leave, which is fine except it took from 2pm until 2 am to get below 73 degrees. It was 70 the next morning but as the temperature increased outside so did the temperature in the house. The second day it never got bellow 73 degrees, with ceiling fans, floor fans and blinds closed, The property management team did send maintenance who basically said it is hot outside and there isn’t much they can do about it. The unit should be serviced, it is hot but it should still cool the house down. No one wants to go to the beach and keep the blinds closed, part of the experience is the view.

Location to the beach is great. The HVAC in the home never reached the desired setting of 73. The temperature at night made it uncomfortable for sleeping
