We've stayed in a lot of places over the years, but this is the first one everyone agrees on to be worthy of 5 stars. Everything was great! The kitchen had everything one could possibly need for cooking and serving, including spices and salt and pepper grinders. The house had a washer, dryer, and all supplies needed to do laundry.
The location and views were fantastic, and communications with the managers was a breeze. We're all looking forward to returning to this property.
Perfect location for a family weekend getaway. Beautiful beach views and direct access with plenty of space for us all. Fall asleep to the sound of crashing waves after a stunning sunset and wake to a quiet walk on the beach with your dog.
Beautiful house right on the beach. Everything was clean, the beds and linens were comfy, we could watch whales and dolphins right from the patio and balcony.
We had a wonderful time staying right on the beach! The house was adorable and very comfortable for our family. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and there are several great restaurants within walking distance. You can't beat the location, we didn't want to leave!
Great beach front unit. Everything you need for your stay. Very clean super comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. Wonderful host was more than accommodating. 5 out of 5 for sure.
This VRBO has the best views of the ocean that I've ever seen. I loved the vintage house and good location right next to the beach with only a short walk to good restaurants. It also has the best showers with lots of hot water and nice water pressure. Getting to the beach, I suggest taking a quick walk from the front door and around the Nextdoor house. Please don't risk using the cement stairs from the back patio. That last step from the back patio is uneven, tilted backwards and slippery, with no hand rail. We all had a great time, including our little dog. A very nice place.
Hello,We wanted to follow up regarding the issues we experienced during our stay from Dec. 22nd -Friday, Dec. 26th. While we truly enjoyed the location of the propery and enjoyed being together as a family, several problems occured druing our stay that significantly disrupted our time in the home. We also wanted to share this fedeback to help revent similar issues for future guests.I've outlined the main issues below. We also have photos and videos that we can send seperately, if helpful.1. Fireplace and Furnace/Heating: The fireplace was not working and required a service visit. Fortunately he was able to fix that. The furnace required a HVAC tech and he stated that this had not been maintained. The filter was not in place and was so filthy. (We have a photo) He could not fix it since it requires more extensive repair. We do appreciate the space heaters but feel confused as to why my husband had to be the one to suggest this.2. Ceiling Leak: On Thursday, water began leaking water from the ceiling near the fireplace. We had to place buckets to catch the water which dripped on the furniture and floor. There are visible stains on the ceiling indicating prior leaks. (We have a video) Since there isn't enough room to go on with the issues we had with the sink, the microwave, stove burner, missing tile etc., I will have to send a seperate email.
