The home was exactly as pictured. It was very clean, neat and orderly. Lots of amenities provided: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, soap, lotion and hair dryer. Inflatable mattress, pack and play and high chair if you are traveling with a baby. I thought those extras were a nice touch. Washer/dryer, ironing board and steamer also on location. Three blocks from beach access, easy location to highway 64, grocery store and restaurants nearby. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this Vrbo. ##### Lisa S.
