Children’s first beach trip

We traveled as a family of 6. It was our youngest, 18 month old daughter, 4 year old son, mom, dad, pawpaw and great pawpaw traveling. The house was very accommodating and being ocean front was amazing. I believe the hot tub was a hit as well.

Sandbox-House old but well equipped, nice porch

Place was so dark with wood paneling everywhere! Not enough light! Somewhat updated but still has seen its better days. Two lights were out and had to be replaced professionally as no stool was provided to reach anything-and they were speciality lights anyway and electrician had to come twice to fix - which they did! We also bought two light bulbs to replace in lamps. Lamp shade was also damaged, but most disappointing was the hot tub was not working. Nice location and great view of ocean. King bed was very, very comfortable.

Couldn’t have ask for nicer people at Better Beach Rentals. They were so great working with us on our dates of stay. They were awesome about everything and their maintenance personnel were quick efficient and friendly. However there were some issues , not major, hot tub was very Sandy that’s only issue besides leak under sink and refrigerator. But maintenance fixed those very quickly. House isn’t a newer house but it’s a comfortable house for a couple. However if you’re an elderly couple I will say the entry steps are a little steep and walkway to the beach is a lot of sand before beach. Great thing is public walkway is right beside house and they have handicap mats at end of walkway made getting to the beach sooo easy. View from house to ocean is beautiful but partially blocked by tree and lots and lots of smaller shrubs. We did enjoy our stay very much .

We are really enjoying our stay! It’s a great little rental with a wonderful, cozy vintage cabin vibe, and it's a fantastic value for the price. The inside is very clean, and the hot tub is working perfectly. Just to help make the place even better, we noticed a few minor things that could use a quick touch-up: Beachfront: The grass down by the water could use a bit of a trim. Glass Door: There are some bugs stuck to the glass door that just need to be cleaned off. Door Maintenance: The door itself seems like it needs a minor fix/adjustment to work smoothly. Beach chair in the deck: could replace the broken ones

Great value. The place was fantastic, very clean, and easy walk right out to the beach. Hot tub was awesome and great view of ocean and stars from it. Beds were very comfortable and great shower and water pressure. The only thing it needs is a redo of the wood decking on the walkway over the dune to the beach.

Hot tub was great! Feel that several of the boards on outside going to lower part need to be replaced. Also did not know that there was a table and chairs on deck that was a nice surprise. Bring close to public access was no problem. Really liked short walk to beach.

Great view, loved the hot tub, we were unable to get in the door on a Sunday and after hours were very friendly and helpful to get us right in. Bathroom had an odor and previous guests laundry bags were left by the steps our entire stay are our only complaints. Will stay here again.
