House was close to the beach and a ton of great restaurant options. Lots of kid friendly things like a booster seat that we completely forgot. Very comfortable bedding and furniture, and the kitchen had everything you could possibly need to cook as well.
If I could give communication with property manager 10 stars I would! They bent over backwards with every single question or request I had. This property was perfect and in a spectacular location. We will absolutely be back!
All was as described. All the rooms were well-sized. Bright and airy.We were able to fit our 4 Jeeps in the driveway. The elevator was a great feature.
We.were very pleased with the house . It is a nice location, close to the beach.The.beds.were very comfortable..plenty of room for relaxing together It was.clean and well stocked kitchen. ..
We loved our stay! Check in and Check out process was easy and hassle free. Owners were incredibly responsive to our messages via VRBO or through text messages. Kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfy. Location was perfect. Very short walk to the beach. Appreciated the fenced in back yard for dogs to play!! Thank you for being wonderful hosts.
The house was very nice! The furniture was cozy! We cooked all meals at the house and the kitchen was fully equipped with all the necessary tools! We did have some dirty bed sheets that we needed to wash. And there were some chair legs at the dining room table that were loose and need to be tightened for future guests. We just moved those out of the way. Also, the lighter on the outdoor fire place was not working. Overall we enjoyed our stay and we would visit again!
Amazing location, comfortable stay, all you need getaway house!
Summary: from check in to check out, location, accessibility, comfort, and hospitality— 5 stars! We loved our stay here! From the moment we checked in, we were at home! The house was clean, beautifully decorated, and well stocked with all we needed and beyond. The snacks, coffee pods, paper products, and kitchen equipment were all very nice and perfect for our week long stay! The house stayed nice and cool in the middle of our heat wave days of 100 degrees, and we were so grateful after a nice long day at the beach! Speaking of which, the beach and nearby grill or breakfast place is super easy to walk to, and we loved that our intersection had a big pedestrian crossing with flashing lights. We traveled with kids and a dog, and had no problem walking around to the places we wanted to go. Melissa was extremely responsive and kind to our questions, and to follow up on any needs or issues that we may have had (we had none!) There were so many things within the house that were well thought out in advance to make our stay the best it could be— from games to household items to the elevator and beyond. We really had everything we needed and more, and the kids loved the ping pong table in the garage! We also were pleasantly surprised to see extra beach chairs, an umbrella, and some beach games there for our use, too. All of these things added to our appreciation! Overall we were thrilled with our stay. You’ll love your time here!! :)
