Cozy Beach House

Very comfortable home, steps away from shore! Home has everything you could need and not as expensive as other beachfront homes. Enjoyed every morning on the deck with a cup of coffee, watching the sun rise. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Take of the Whale August 2024

Great location. Outdoor shower Most of porch new (except plank walk to porch) it is old (weather is not kind). There was two nail heads that were raised (not hard to avoid) wood on last stairs does sag and a large person it could break). Gates are nice with kids on porch. Mattresses were HORRIBLE. Bring an air mattress for each person I recommend until those are replaced! One bed upstairs does have a replaced mattress. Space is great for larger family. Our suburban fit to park underneath one space. Tons of beach boards. AC was great in the house. Plenty of towels which is rare in a rental. No spices/salt/pepper so bring your own. Great price for ocean front, just PLEASE get new mattresses, it would make such a difference!

Much needed relaxing week!

We enjoyed our stay and I appreciated the fact that we were called to make sure everything went smoothly with our check in. Just what we needed to relax and escape everyday life! We would definitely rent from Vasca again. Thanks for helping us make amazing memories with the family.

Cute little house with a close walk!

One of the simplest houses we’ve stayed in, but one of the best! It was perfect for our vacation. Lots of kids toys and I noticed pack and plays/toddler mattress in multiple closets. Truly a wonderful addition for people traveling with littles! Only thing I think that needs updated is new couches/chairs in the living room. Everything else was perfect. Thanks for having us!!

A great retreat!

We love the layout of the home. We had four adults, two little kids, and a dog, and the space was good for our group. We love the porch, with a solid table where we had breakfast every morning. The second floor has a large double window where you can see the beautiful ocean, and moonlight on the water! Many personal touches from the family that are charming and homey. The air works well, and indoor washer and dryer are very convenient! Appliances work well. We would definitely stay here again.

Outdated but functional

This property has so much potential, but it’s obvious the owners don’t want to invest in it. The furniture is way past its prime. The bathrooms and kitchen need major updates and the mattresses are about 10 years past their expiration dates. The property had a problem with ants while we were there. Vacasa called to let us know about the issue 20 minutes before check in time; they did offer to move us to another home but we chose to stay due to the homes location (framily was in the home next door). The location is wonderful and the porch was an excellent place to sit.

My Tale of the Whale

We enjoyed out time at the house. Absolutely love the location on the beach. House is outdated but very cute. House appeared clean but after the first day there, which was only half a day, the bottom of my feet were black from the dirty floor. The beds were absolutely horrendous. So uncomfortable. My husband had such a bad time with them, that he slept on the floor for the two weeks we were there.

Great Beach House!

My family stayed at Tale of the Whale for a week and we had a great time. This home has all you need. Plenty of board games and books. No need to bring any. 4 bedrooms, 2 up and 2 down plenty of room! The kitchen is fully equipped. The view is amazing. A few suggestions and wishes. Would like to have had an outdoor grill. It doesn't have one. And the porch boards are rough, be careful where you step. Would be nice to extend the walkway out closer to the beach. Overall we loved the house and view. Hope to return again!
