The kids enjoyed the short walk to the beach, and playing in the sand around the property. The adults enjoyed the convenience of just getting to unpack and enjoy the trip. The beautiful kitchen and the large front deck were the highlights of the home. We plan to rebook in the future. Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful home. ##### Cheyenne C. Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Jennifer H. 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Don't fall Very nice home other than some serious maintenance issues. Home was very large and spacious all bedrooms including the bunk room had plenty of space ro move about. Pantry was great. When we arrived we had trouble figuring out what door the keypad was on and then when we found it key code would not work. Had to call company to be able to get in but after talking with 2 different people none of the codes they gave us would work. Finally gave us code to get actual key out of box. When we got in microwave door would not open and one of the TV remotes would not work. Maintenance told us they would be there between 10 and 11 the next day to fix the issues but was after 12 before they arrived. Fixed the remote and microwave problem but although they said they fixed the keypad code they did not. Could not leave the home and lock the door due to inability to get back in. There were some serious safety concerns in the home - there were numerous places in home that the floor was buckled posing tripping hazard mostly on main level but 1 in one of the upstairs bedrooms and one of these places was very bad in the living/dining area we all tripped over it numerous times. Also the railings on the porch overlooking the beach are loose, not loose enough that i was afraid of falling but loose enough that needs to be fixed before they get worse. Also doors would get hung on floors Outside doors were very dfficult to close all the way. Coffee pot leaked as did fridge and wine cooler. ##### Jennifer H.

Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeannie H. 9 Jul 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Beach Getaway The property was perfect for our multi-family summer getaway. It was clean, steps away from the beach, with plenty of space for the entire family, and loved the open concept to the living room, dining, and kitchen areas. There are a couple of minor recommdations: to fix the bathroom doors from rubbing the floor in the guest bedroom upstairs, and provide more kitchen and bathroom towels. Other than that, the property and location was amazing! Definitely recommend! ##### Jeannie H. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Miguel I. 11 Aug 2025 ##### Miguel I.
