The Hulk II - No Cleaning Fee - Hot Tub

The Hulk II - No Cleaning Fee - Hot Tub

8/10 Good
"The host was amazing with communication. Very quick to respond. The location was absolutely amazing! Super close to two beach access points and walking distance to pier and other activities. The hot tub was also such a huge plus, but we only used it once due to weather. The only thing that would have made it perfect would have been a cleaner house upon arrival. We found dirty dishes that were placed back in the cabinets and drawers. There was a ton of dust along the ceilings and air vents. Some of the linens looked questionable as well. The bathroom was definitely not cleaned well as we had hair in the tub and a dirty toilet. Overall, we definitely enjoyed our stay and would stay again. We just hope for a better cleaning crew next time."

Big Kahuna | Ocean Front, Pool, Elevator, Decks + Beach Access

10/10 Excellent
"We rent beach property every summer. This summer we decided to rent beach front and pay the difference at Kure beach. At this particular location, the beach was right outside our door, the pool was great, and made it nice for our crew of 8 adults and 8 kiddos. We brought tents and wagons, but never used them, as the kids could run back and forth inside or back and forth to the house as needed. On July 4th, the busiest day of the year, this area was still not very crowded and I cannot tell you how great the sun rise was in my room in the morning! So one mom was pregnant, and we'll have 9 kiddos next year!Most restful vacay in a long time. Bring a book. Bring a cup 'o jo. Leave work behind. We did. We'll do it again. :)"
