Just wow. The place was adorable and comfortable. I didn't even use the first floor and still has tons of room. The covered porch outside the main room overlooked the dunes and the ocean. Perfect view. The top deck absolute view of the oceanw waves.

Overall great experience. So close to the beach so made taking the kids a breeze. Plenty of outdoor space for relaxing out of the sand. Unfortunately the TV in the kids room was broken prior to us checking in so that limited their time in their room but other than that, great experience all around.

Hi Lacee, we are disappointed and confused by your review. We did not receive any messaging that anything was wrong during your stay. We do ask guests to let us know so we may correct ASAP. This would've been an easy fix as the house is on a pest control schedule. We only received messaging asking for assistance with the remotes. I am not sure what was meant by the rain comment, could you please message us to clarify?We will run by the property in between guests and assess as the house was sprayed not too long ago and have pest control drop in , if needed. Thank you for your feedback.

The Views are EVERYTHING!

The location is amazing - on the beach with ocean views from two levels of comfortable balconies. Close to the fort, food and fun. The Cottage is comfortable for both people and pets. Two families with kids could easily enjoy and have plenty of room. Saw turtles, sharks and shells.

Great Beach Vacation

The location and the views were great. Lots of good, local restaurants within walking distance. It wasn't perfect. The interior of the house could use some TLC. Needs a new coffee maker for instance. Overall, the location and view more than make up for any of the interior deficiencies. Would rent again without hesitation.

We loved location. Everything was good but stovetop had a few burners out but they were in the middle of buying a new one. Maybe a few more pans for cooking we like to stay in and make dinner. But all and all we loved this home

Overall enjoyed it

House is nice a bit outdated in some areas but still nice. Mgmt company was great had a few issues come up and they had maintenance there few hours later to resolve. The master bedroom bed needs a new mattress was very uncomfortable. The location was great and beaches were beautiful. Probably would not vacation there again but only because I like to go to a place i havent been every year. All in all we all enjoyed our stay and ate out breakfast, lunch and dinner everyday at a different place. Restaurant selection is great and all the food was good especially the seafood my fav.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Although the house is well located, it was not in the condition expected for the price. We had to wash all the sheets and comforters upon arrival. There was chewing gum stuck to the floor, heavy dust and lint around the air vent, and the vacuum cleaner was left completely full.The kitchen was poorly equipped, with mismatched glasses and very few matching plates. The door code worked inconsistently, so we carried the key as a precaution. The one day we did not have it, we waited more than an hour for assistance and eventually had to enter through an unlocked window.There was also major construction next door, including a pool and an extension. Work started around 8:30 every morning, waking us and making it difficult to relax or enjoy the outdoor area. We were not informed about the construction before our stay, and the owner claimed not to know about it.The grass had not been cut, and overall the property felt neglected. No compensation or meaningful gesture was offered for the noise, access problems, or condition of the house. The location is good, but the maintenance and service were not appropriate for the price paid. I have several pictures of everything.

Great location! House needs updated

The location is perfect! You definitely pay for the view. The house needs lots of updates. We covered the furniture before sitting on it! Recliner in the corner has an arm that falling off… unusable! Little things need replaced or repaired! Main bedroom has queen bed and definitely has room or a king. Tried to open curtains and it almost fell off the wall! Window locks broken. I feel it was overpriced! Will do more research before renting for a month next year!

Older unit but good location

Great location but the older unit needs a little facelift. I know you pay for location but at this $ amount you expect a little more than worn furniture, mismatched dishes, and OLD electronics. The dvd player wouldn’t work and since the TV wasn’t a Smart TV we couldn’t even stream our Dish app. Over 4 days never figured out the 4 old remotes or the DirectTV that had no local channels & mostly PPV movies. The upper deck (widow walk) furniture is mostly unusable but The main deck was ok.

Needs updating and maintenance.

Definitely needs updating. Had to clean ice maker to make it work. Missing light bulbs in several places. Had to change light bulb in Master Bath toilet room so you could see. Photo of BR 2 is totally inaccurate. Water pressure in shower downstairs was awful. Several pieces of furniture were in need of repair. Upper deck railing was loose. Rug in living trip is a trip hazard. Great location and beautiful beach, but I don't think I would stay in this house again.

House needs some attention

some things that need attention: Upstairs back door won't close or lock, many light bulbs out, ants in kitchen and around door, tv remotes lack batteries, stove settings are worn off- can't tell which burner or level of heat, metal drain cover in big shower is bent and needs screw- safety issue, could easily cut a foot, towel rack at head of bathtub is loose and falls off if used, chair at desk is tearing up the floor, deck chairs have apparently been chewed by a large dog and are very rough- DID cut a leg! Outdoor furniture on the lowest level would be nice. I know it is out of your control, but renters should be aware that there is very near by construction from dawn till dusk

Needs new cleaning crew- Filthy

Location was amazing! House was very dirty and not clean like the pictures show. Down stairs bedroom floor w the murphy bed did not have air flow and floor was covered with sand. We needed to clean this room too prior to sleeping. Couches have holes on both of them and very dirty - unable to sit on. Smell of the home was mold and even all items brought home have the smell embedded in them. The kitchen floors and cabinet fronts were so dirty with food grime and drips- we had to scrub and clean prior to use. Dishes were put away dirty. If the rental company is contracted to clean- they need a new cleaning company. For the work it took to get this home suitable for my family- I could should bill for cleaning. Also, bugs galore- Roach upon arrival and in the pantry food that was left behind infested and tiny ants covered the kitchen counters. I have rented all over the world and this was our worst experience.
