Nice place and location

We had a family vacation at this house with 9 adults and 1 child. The place was great! The house is very nice. The private beach access was a plus too, being able to avoid the busyness of public access. The owner David is very welcoming and helpful. I would recommend staying here for sure!

Spotless and well-appointed!

We very much enjoyed our stay at this spotless home! The kitchen was truly well apointed- absolutely everything we could need. We loved the walk to the beach and the elevator. It really is a fantastic space, and we look forward to coming back next year!

Perfect for all who want to do things together or break off into small groups! Everything we wanted to do was within a short walk or bike ride. Beach was never overcrowded and the kitchen was stocked well with all of our diverse needs. We will come again!

Amazing beach house

Beautifully decorated comfortable house very convenient to the beach, only a 5 minute walk! Home has everything you could possibly need and then some! Bikes, beach chairs, sand toys, ping pong, foosball, corn hole are all provided. Watch the sunset from the roof top deck plus porches on both front and back sides of house. Amazing vacation was had by all!

Beautiful home and a great location just a 5 minute walk to private beach entrance. The kitchen was well stocked and plenty of space to spread out - perfect for a family gathering of 9. Having stayed in 3-level homes without one, the elevator is a game-changer for check-in and check-out. Plenty of bikes and beach gear. What more could you ask for? We will be back.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was beautifully furnished and with enough space for a large family gathering. The front deck overlooked the pond and we were entertained by the duck family that lives there. The back deck has seating for dining which was nice. In the early evening there was a nice breeze on the rooftop deck. Watching the fireworks was spectacular from there.

Exactly as advertised

Perfect house! We were very happy with our stay. Accommodations were wonderful. Owner was very responsive. The beach towels, bikes & beach equipment was a huge plus! Less we had to tote. The outdoor space was wonderful. Deck space for everyone. No negatives. We look forward to renting again!

The home was in a quiet, family neighborhood. Nothing was outdated or worn in any way. Everything needed for a week was in place and in excellent condition. You could not have a better home for vacation. We will be back as soon as we can.

Great place

We had a really nice time at this house for the week of the 4th. The host was very responsive and helpful. I wish the linen disclosure was made further in advance (everything must be laundered before departure) so we could’ve arranged for service through another company. The internet in the downstairs room is tough if you want to do any streaming (only a TV antenna if not). The house has everything you need for the beach and the layout is perfect for a family with different agr groups.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at LalasPalooza-- we always work to update and add amenities we'd like to enjoy at vacation homes we rent. We are especially sorry you missed the details about the linen laundering requirements listed under "CLEANING" in the agreement included as part of your original booking. We offer linens as a courtesy for those who would rather launder ours vs bring their own or rent from a service. We also apologize for the internet service-- we've never had a complaint about the strength of it-- so thank you for letting us know. Again, we're thrilled you enjoyed the house and amenities! LalasPalooza is our favorite place to escape!

Perfect getaway stay

We had a wonderful stay here. The house was clean and well maintained and fully stocked with everything we needed. The kitchen had way more than we needed which was great since we cooked every night. There was plenty of space for the kids to have fun and the adults to hang out. Bedrooms were large and all beds were very comfortable. The kids loved the outdoor shower! The elevator was such a blessing for my brother who has trouble walking stairs. Couldnt have asked for a better place to stay.Location- Easy short walk to the beach with a bathroom right by the dunes- SUPER convenient! Quiet neighborhood with little to no traffic (in early June). Communication with the hosts was easy and they were very responsive!

We are so thrilled you enjoyed Lalaspalooza! We also think our community's private beachfront parking, restroom and gazebo are a super convenient bonus! And we also cook a lot-- so making sure guests have enough pots, pans and "kitchen gear" is top of mind for us. Plus- what's a vacation without a comfy bed?? :-) We're always working to ensure our guests have the best experience possible. We hope you'll visit again soon!

The house was everything we could have hoped for and more, everything was clean and operational and the location was great. Contact with the owners was very smooth and helpful. We all thought this was the best house we've stayed at in all the years of coming to the beach.

Absolutely Amazing !

Hands down the most amazing place we have ever stayed. The owner is by far the most organized and helpful persons to rent from. You will not have to wonder about where to eat, what to do or how to use anything in the house. He has a manual with anything and everything you need to know. It was SO helpful. Also no matter the age there is something for everyone. My family enjoyed the bike rides. I can’t say enough about this beach house it was over the top and then some !

What an incredible experience. The home is super clean and luxurious. Great location. It's a short walk to the beach but if you don't want to walk, you can load up the car and go take advantage of the private parking that comes with the home. It was essentially a perfect experience.

One of a KIND

This house is absolutely amazing! From the emulate clean house, all the beautiful decor details of this home, elevator to haul our luggage, tons of bikes and toys for the beach, updated kitchen, and peaceful views from all the decks our week vacation was perfect. We stayed the week of July 4th and was able to view 4 different firework shows from the top deck. We had many nights sitting on the big porches playing card games with a glass of wine and relaxing. Very peaceful and upscale neighborhood. I loved taking one of the many bikes around the neighborhood. It was also nice being able to drive and park at the gazebo and being steps from the ocean. You can also walk a short 5 minutes to the beach too. The beach was great. The sand was very soft and many shells we were able to get with our girls. Overall, we had such a great experience in this house and would recommend it to anyone with a family. The owners were very quick to repley to any questions we had and gave so much detail of the area which put us at ease on what to do and where the best places are!! You cannot go wrong with this house!!!!
