The rental was the perfect location and the layout was great! Having the access to the beach across the street (pretty much at the end of the driveway) made beach days relaxing! It was easy to just walk back when we needed a break from the sun. The rental’s open layout made it easy to hang out. Having hoses at the front and back stairs along with an outdoor shower was really helpful for coming in from the beach. We had our 7 month old puppy with us and there was a dog bed and dishes along with treats laid out for her - so sweet! The host was very response to all messages and very helpful! The overall location was close to easily drive to the grocery store, beach shops, etc but also removed enough that it wasn’t busy. We would totally rent this place again!

This was our second stay at Surfsounds, and it was just as enjoyable as the first. The house is spotless. I enjoy cooking and the kitchen was very well equipped. The owner is very friendly, and we enjoyed seeing more of his artwork this time. We hope to come back again soon!

Location is outstanding. Literally less than 100 yards from beach. We loved its beach house feel and easy means to wash up outside to keep the sand out of the main house. Inside was very modern, with an open living room/kitchen. Bedrooms were comfy cozy. We especially liked the half bath attached to main bedroom. Welcome information by owner was very helpful as this was our first home rental experience as well as first time in the area. Check in and check out was a breeze.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
It was a great location and clean. There is only one washer/dryer for 2 units and it is difficult to wash clothes because the other unit’s tenants always had its use in evenings. We mistakenly took the guest book upon leaving (cleaning people were there 20 min early and my husband grabbed it in hurry). I phoned twice and emailed twice wanting a post address to return. No response. I finally decided to drive 2 hours out of my way to return. It would have been so much easier to get a response. I left my cell phone number as well. Anyway, it was a nice spot.

Response from VrboOwner on 16 July 2026
Hi Jennifer, We are so very sorry to hear about the issues. I have a ticket into VRBO to figure out the communication break down surrounding the welcome book and guest log, since I did message you back twice with our P.O. Box and also explaining it was no big deal. We truly try hard to make our beach home the best it can be for guest pre, during and post stay. I am very sorry you had issues not using our washer dryer on site… we always ask guests to monitor their use for others want to use the washer and dryer in a shared capacity. As for the cleaners arriving early that is not acceptable and I am sorry yet again. I will reach out to them and ensure they understand the true check out times. We hope outside of all the issues you had a lovely beach trip.
