Everything was perfect until we found bedbugs in one of the beds. Essentially, we lost the use of that bedroom and some guests had to double up. Communication with the property manager ended with an agreement of a 15% refund for the loss of the bedroom. A month after our stay, the refund was still not given. Except for that issue, i would have given the property 5 stars all around.

This is our second year here, and it’s a great place. However.. big issues with Vacasa(the property managers) they have zero contact with the owners and will offer to help you with requests but make no effort to actually help you.We asked to see if we could check in 30mins early for our 12 night stay, they said they would check with the owners and never did. We asked if there were beach chairs, vacasa said no, and there were a couple underneath the porch. We asked if there was a vacuum vacasa said no, we get there and there’s a vacuum right in the closet. We were short on a good bit of supplies like paper towels and toilet paper and didn’t even bother with Vacasa because we knew they wouldn’t do anything.

Sweet Sping Break getaway!

The property was phenomenal. You cannot beat the beach access straight from the house. Plenty of room for the kids to play and run around. The crib was a nice bonus so we didn’t have to get out our pack and play. Kitchen was large and well stocked. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for the whole group. We had the best time!

Perfect Beach Home

Our stay was at the house was wonderful and beach front access was amazing! The house was clean, beds were soo comfortable and the house was so cozy. We loved sitting on the deck at night and walking to the beach or to restaurants during the day. We will be back next year!

Great beach week!!

It was a great, but quick, week at the beach. Good family house with lots of gathering spaces and spaces to get away. Enjoyed our days on the beach and evenings on the porch watching the moon and stars.
