The house was perfect for our extended family vacation. Access to the beach was great, loved the patio and rocking chairs, and appreciated a fully stocked kitchen. Also had a one year old with us who just learned to walk so we really appreciated the baby gates at the top of the steps.

Overall a great stay, highly recommend! There were a few hiccups (WiFi modem/router wasn’t working and we needed to have a new one mailed to the house; the owner was great about arranging everything for that!), she got back to us very quickly! A few maintenance needs, but nothing that significantly affected our stay. Great views from the ocean-facing windows!

This is our second Thanksgiving here, and we hope to return again next year! It is the perfect place for family to get together to cook, walk the beach, and enjoy nearby shops and restaurants. We love the ocean view, the spacious layout, the exceptionally well equipped double kitchens, the family sized dining area, the direct beach access. Thank you for another perfect holiday.

Family vacation

Our group included kids, grandkids and significant others. The house is ideally located close enough to Flagler to walk to restaurants and attractions but just far enough away from the z a heavier beach crowds that gather near Flagler Ave. The home is comfortable and has plenty of space to spread out. The beach is just a few steps off the porch. The porch was great for hanging out with the family enjoying the sea breeze and listening ocean surf. We look forward to coming back.

Great location but needs some care

This home was attractive with comfortable beds and good-sized rooms. The location is great, very close to the sand. My family of 13 with three generations stayed for a week. While images are representative, they don't tell the entire story; this home is roomy but really needs basic maintenance and care. It very much looks like a rental property with a minimal amount of money invested in upkeep. There are two flights of stairs in the property, which can be difficult for those of limited mobility, but there are also several random steps around that cause tripping - some are a few inches tall and some are regular step height. We had a few in our party fall and several almost fall; because the floor is all the same color with no contrast on the steps, it is difficult to distinguish a single step in various areas. We put brightly colored removable painter's tape on the steps all over the house that really helped to see where the edges were. The furniture in most of the rooms is minimal quality and doesn't always fit what you might want to store in it, and there are not many hangers in the few closets available (the primary "wardrobe" only had 4 plastic hangers, which we supplemented with a package we bought). The only shade on the patio is a table umbrella and a portable canopy with one leg broken. Our family had a great time there, but I wouldn't rent this property again. If a little money was invested to spruce up the property it would be much more comfortable and inviting.
