Couldn’t be better

Great stay

I had a great stay. The water is very close. Walking was great air conditioning was nice and cool kitchen with all the facilities was great too. Had a good time.

Needs updating for the price

The plus side of this property is location! The location was fantastic! The property manager was always available and helpful. The building itself was in desperate need of repairs. The natural hardwood stairs were very creaky and loud, the floors were weak it various areas although they looked new. The appliances were extremely old and needed to be replaced! There wasn't one pot in the place and the pans we did find were old and black. There were no large bowls to use to put anything cooked food in to serve. There were no crackpot or frying pans. The kitchen was lacking a lot to a cooking family. There was a big gap under one section of the lower cabinets which would pose a threat to any small pets along with the stairs. There were no floor cleaning supplies which made it hard to keep them clean of sand. We went and bought a broom to help with this issue. The bathroom was in need of some repairs. The shower head had no water pressure and and the toilet as well which made it difficult to flush without the use of a plunger. The beds were ok, but really needed replacing. The kids bedroom door didn't shut. There were no ceiling lights at all which poses a danger. There were very limited supply of linings, one kitchen towel and cloth, 4 bath towels and washcloths and 2 hand towels. There were no additional toilet paper and Papertowels. When we arrived there was a half roll of toilet paper with an extra one roll and same for Papertowels. The place was not the cleanest. Killed a couple of roaches and spiders. The view was awesome! The walk to the beach was doable and short. The area was awesome. If this place had been updated with a fully functional kitchen and other updates to some other issues listed above we would rate this place a 5 star! And would definitely stay here again! But as it is right now we can only give a 3 star review and no we would not stay here again.

Book Your Trip Elsewhere

The pictures on the website are "okay", but PLEASE prepare yourself for disappointment upon arrival. The ONLY thing great about this place is the location, close/easy access to the beach, fast internet, and hot water (no hooks in the shower to place your loofa if that matters to you - haha). Our family recommends you look elsewhere! The house is old and appliances are extremely outdated; there was also mold found on the bathroom and kitchen ceilings. It smelled like mildew/mold in the master bedroom and orange side room. The furniture in the pictures was not in the house; the couch that was there had holes in it as well as other furniture in the house. If there wasn't a hole, there were scratch marks from pets. During our stay, the fire alarm went off at 7 am, which startled us awake. We weren't sure what to do since the other alarm didn't go off, so we contacted the owner and he said that he could send a handyman out or the alarm and batteries could be taken out and "enjoy the rest of our vacation." We believe it was a sarcastic remark because we texted him earlier in the week with our dissatisfaction with the condition of the house. At one point, he said that the house was inspected and cleaned prior to our arrival and that there were no reports of mildew or holes in the couch--implying that we were wrong and possibly the ones to blame for the damage. Well, thankfully that was quickly remedied because we said that we would be willing to send pictures of everything else that was wrong with the house if he'd like. We did not want to be blamed for the damage or condition of the house. There is a long list of items that would help viewers decide on whether or not to rent for vacation; however, there are not enough characters to do so, but here is a short list: washer is old, loud, small, and you have to remember to the water source on and off; it leaks; the front door is not entirely secured (it could easily be broken into); there were like a couple of complimentary towels and washcloths (they were like old rags and had a couple of stains on them); no freezer racks; disgusting silverware and cookware (we did not use the oven-there is a nice microwave though); couldn't find the tv remote; didn't put off a beach vibe (so if you're looking for a cute beach vibe go elsewhere); it smells a little like dogs (so if you want a place where pets haven't been, go elsewhere). We recommend that you stay somewhere else.
