Very relaxing

This place is amazing! It is very spacious and allowed us to have a very relaxing time with my family. My adult kids commented on how "chill" it was, since there weren't any signs on what not to do in every room... it's only a very short walk to the beach, and the view onto the ocean from the living room window is breathtaking. The beds were so comfortable. We also enjoyed the beautiful and very private backyard. The dishwasher was a little wonky as it's not bolted in, but everything else was in great working order.

Great place to stay

It's a nice place, in a nice neighborhood, and a great view of the ocean. The house has everything you need. There will little things that could be improved. They're are so many light switches, it was hard to tell what did what. The fireplace in the master bedroom either didn't work or wasn't obvious how to turn it on. As far as cleanliness, it looked like no one had been there in a while, but it was mostly clean. I only mention some of these things because I've stayed at a lot of places and this place could be really incredible with some small tweaks and upgrades.

Not as clean as expected with the price

Positives: — location — well stocked kitchen Negatives: — yard is a shadow of itself from what one sees in the pictures — kitchen stove was greasy — stairway very steep. Not for small children, could benefit from a baby gate as living room and kitchen are upstairs. Also, some stair liners were loose which could cause a fall. — the interior desperately needs to be painted — sofas need steam cleaning All in all, for the price paid, I expected something closer to what I’d get for a similarly priced hotel. Unrelated to the property, VRBO and other STR sites are putting hotels to shame with additional fees. For example, early checkin available, at $50/hour. (No benefit for early checkout!). Then admin fees, cleaning fees, etc etc.

Easy and relaxing fun!

We had a group of 11 in our family for four days. The house is spacious and allowed each of us to choose to join in with the noisy fun and activity, or instead to retreat to any of several quiet and comfortable areas. We found everything we needed, towels etc. The upper floor is the main living area, and we had no problem with our upstairs activity disturbing the downstairs sleepers. The kitchen is very large and roomy, with every coffee option you could dream of! The house has many views from every window making it bright and cheerful and open. The backyard was put to good use by the little ones, giving them a safe, secure and entertaining place to play. The beach is a short walk from the home and a perfect place to spend the day. The upstairs primary shower continues to have a sticking door that needs some attention, and the dishwasher is not bolted in (so use caution when loading and unloading your dishes). Despite these issues, I would definitely recommend this home for a larger family. The spacious floor plan and location so near the beach just can't be beat!
