House was great and communication with property owner was amazing!
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
Location is great! Minor details would make the entire stay great. Blinds in living room did not work or were missing. Same with master bedroom. Wi-fi password is incorrect and the front door is nearly impossible to lock or unlock. Other than that everything was great!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Everything went real smooth. Promise made, Promise kept. We had what we needed and more, need some Salt lol. Having the lift was a life saver. Could not have asked for a more better experience than my family had these last three days.
6 / 10Average·May 2026
There are numerous issues we had with this rental.Cons:1. The sewer is bubbling up in the back yard and smells awful. We couldn't even use that part of the property.2. The master bathroom toilet runs randomly at all times.3. The master bedroom had no tv, not sure if it was supposed to.4. Half of the remotes didn't have batteries, we had to buy some.5. Second bedroom remotes only turned on tv and did not work roku. 6. No kitchen cleaning solution or spray, only a mold and mildew. Had to buy some to clean the counters.7. THREE ROLLS OF TOILET PAPER FOR 6 PEOPLE FOR 4 DAYS. This one I specifically asked about prior to arrival and was told there was plenty.8. Smoke detector in hall missing, and in the second bedroom it is hanging from the ceiling. Both showing exposed wires.9. Super soft spot in the floor next to the bathtub in the guest bath. Other soft spots throughout, but this one was troubling.10. A/C randomly kicks to 84 every few hours keeping it extremely warm the entire time.Pros:1. Convenient location to the beach.2.Bathrooms & kitchen were clean. Overall we were not satisfied with this rental.
