From the moment we arrived, we felt comfortable and welcomed. Every detail, from the cozy furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen, made our trip relaxing and fun.

Beautiful home in beautiful location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely stay! The home is beautiful and just as described and well situated to get to nearby points of interest. We especially like how close it is to Shamel Park. Everything was comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything you need to cook at home. One of our favorite spots was the back balcony and lower garden. It was perfect outdoor space for enjoying the weather. My only recommendation for improvement would be the upstairs bathroom had very very low water pressure and required our group of 5 to all share the downstairs shower.

Birthday Getaway

This rental was clean, spacious and worked well for our family gathering. We often stay in rental homes and this was the first time in recent memory that we needed to use actual keys. This required stopping by the property management office at the beginning and end of our trip and using a lock box. A digital keypad on the rental would be much easier. I would also suggest that a gas BBQ would be much simpler and cleaner than a charcoal grill. Another suggestion would be to furnish the home with decent quality shampoo, conditioner and body wash. Finally, we struggled with operating the television in the family room. There were no operating instructions and we finally resorted to casting from our phones. Despite those minor inconveniences, we did enjoy our stay. The home is located in a clean, quiet neighborhood and within easy walking distance to the beach.

Spacious, Comfortable with an Ocean View!

This house comfortably accommodated 3 adult couples in the living room and dining room. The bedrooms were good sized with cozy beds. The kitchen was well stocked with pans, utensils, plates, cups, bowls and would have been perfect except for only 5 wine glasses. There are great walks around the neighborhood to the coast. We would definitely stay here again!
