We rented this property to celebrate Mother's Day weekend and it was the perfect place for it! We were able to walk to the pier, restaurants, and ice cream shops nearby. The volleyball courts were directly across from the house so the kids were able to play games and lay out on the sand. The house also has a bbq grill land fully stocked kitchen, which made it very convenient for us to cook. Thank you for having us! We definitely made some memories with the family this weekend!

6 / 10Average·Aug 2020
The property was very nice. Unfortunately there were some areas that need attention: 1)Carpet is extremely dirty 2) window sills and frames and screens very dirty 3) broken screens 4) They say it's for 13, however not enough plates or silverware for 13. 5) Only a broom to clean, and no mop. The vacuum did not work. 6) The sheets were very thin and cheap. 7) we were there for a whole week and no cleaning products provided, only dishwashing and dishwasher detergent. No toilet scrub brush even. Thank you.
