Everything was good. But I have just some observations. -1 towel per person-1 toilet paper- the pool system was not working, just the hot tub. -for the pets, should have some kind of gate at the balcony
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
Very nice duplex. Owners were great about our pets staying too. Quiet street, easy two blocks to beach. So nice to have the pool as well! Too warm outside for the hot tub though. Duplex was clean, had all the things we needed. We had trouble with the front door passcode. Called the Beachball property number, answered right away, they got us a new passcode right as we were at the door. No problem after that. Very nice accommodation!

We had problems with the tv the lighting color on tv was weird and the pool was a little dirty. We couldn’t get in with the code at first. One of the towels ripped in washer. But besides that great! Didn’t give me option to rent upstairs and downstairs so thought I got the whole thing to our selves. But besides that great!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Mar 2024
When we first arrived the smell of the house was horrendous. Through our 5 day extend stay, the smell reaked of sewer. Although the commutation between the owners was consistent, the hot tub as well had numerous problems. Overall, it was a great experience minus the re occurring issues.
