The house wasn’t as clean as it should have been. Thought there were suppose to be boogie boards but that wasn’t a problem. I spoke with the owner concerning filter and ice maker working in the refrigerator and she said she would take care of it. Evidently it is an issue in a lot of rentals. Yes we would be back.

This was a lovely property with Direct beach access. It does have five bedrooms, but three of the bedrooms share one bathroom. There are two king size beds, but the other two rooms are double beds. The twin bunkbeds were normal bunk beds. I gave it a four star instead of five because seven people had to share one bathroom. Also, this is a place for people with young legs. It is very much designed up and down.

Birthday Vacay

We enjoyed our getaway to celebrate my twin boys’ birthday and the end of the school year. Despite only getting two days of nice weather we very much enjoyed staying here. It was very clean spacious for my crew and only steps away from the ocean.

This home was well maintained and clean upon arrival. It's easy to rent a home and feel like we got a place that has all the outdated, left-over appliances that were discarded from someone's everyday home, but I did not feel that way, here. There were plenty of extras like a crockpot, air fryer, kitchen utensils, fans, beach chairs, 3 grills, and kitchen towels/sponges. The extra hose downstairs was great because the shower on the walkway wasn't quite enough to knock off all the sand and salt. I appreciated having access to the drying line right outside the porch instead of hanging things on a banister. Communication with the owner and laundry services was incredibly easy. There was plenty of space for my dog to go outside and use grassy areas, or walk the nice neighborhood roads. Parking was surprisingly spacious.No significant negatives. Note to anyone with mobility challenges, this house has a lot of stairs and access from the beach is not easy. The porch is peaceful, but you cannot see the beach for the dunes. The master bedroom had more windows and tended to be hotter than the other rooms, but that was fixed with a powerful extra fan in the room.Overall, I hope to come again next year. Thank you for the beautiful stay!

The house was in great shape and had plenty of room for us to move around, even when it rained. The kitchen is well-stocked (unlike many that we have stayed at) and the unit even had extra beach chairs that were in good shape (not rusted). The beach is very deep in this part of the island, which is the primary reason to have a beachfront home.
