About this property

BEACHFRONT HOME-BREATHTAKING 180 DEGREE OCEAN SUNRISES & SUNSETS: 9/13-9/17 OPEN

Our home is right on Wells beach. Wake up every morning with a 180 degree panoramic ocean view from your deck and living room. This home is the ultimate in beach convenience. Wake up to sunrises over the ocean and enjoy family fun on the deck as you watch the sun set. A Well stocked kitchen with all the utensils allows for eating in and the central location of this home allows for quick access to all the great local restaurants. Wells is getting more and more popular each summer. The number of homes that offer this degree of beach access and ocean views is shrinking every year (as owners convert rental homes to private homes). Treat yourself to the ultimate Wells beach experience - Stay right on the beach!! Within our recently updated circa 1924 home, this 2 bedroom unit is adjoined by a 3 bedroom unit (VRBO #2278234) on the opposite side of the home. If you are looking to vacation with family/friends this setup provides for both close proximity and privacy. We purchased this home in 2021 - that is why there are only a few reviews as of yet. We own another home on Atlantic Ave that has double digit highly positive VRBO reviews (VRBO #3912788). You only live once, why not treat yourself to one of the best locations Wells Beach has to offer! Enjoy the panoramic ocean sunrise with your coffee!! (All stays contingent on receipt of signed rental agreement)

This is our second time renting this unit and it’s better than I remembered. The house is clean and stocked with everything we could need. The older kids loved riding their scooters to the shops and arcade while the baby built sand castles on the beach. The location and views are breathtaking; we watched the sun rise over the ocean, from our porch every morning. I will rent this unit again next year.

Seaside serenity

This property is amazing. From the cozy home with all the amenities you could need for a beach stay to the spectacular views on both north and south sides of the property. We stayed in both sides, with the south side our gathering place with a large picture window and sliding glass doors to the ocean front deck and it has a slightly larger living space. Having both sides available affords a nice privacy option if needed. This is one of those stays where you never want to leave.

Best vacation of my life

The property was fully stocked with blankets, kitchen utensils, and linens. It was the prefect size for my family of six. Morning sunrises, on the deck with a coffee, were serene. The location doesn’t get any better for families. We will rent this property again.

No linens

Let me say right up front, the house was very clean.On our arrival we found no bath towels and no sheets or pillow cases on any of the beds. This was not pointed out in the online description.We were informed it was stated in the lease agreement we signed, and that turned out to be true. But, we received the lease agreement the day before we were to arrive at the house and did not notice it. Having said all that, David took excellent care of us and made sure our stay was an excellent experience.Thank you David. We would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by David Gamblin

Host profile image
My family and I have been vacationing at Wells Beach for the last 15-20 years. We do enjoy the family atmosphere at this beach. Before purchasing 131 Atlantic, we stayed at all the motels and hotels along Rte 1. The daily vacation drama of will we find a parking spot by the beach and packing up the car and being careful not to forget anything as we'd have to drive back to get it - (and risk losing our parking spot) was not really fun. We started staying right by the beach and our stress levels decreased dramatically. Everything about Wells in the summer is fun (see Congdon's Doughnuts, Billy's Chowder House, Mikes Clam Shack, The Steak House and even Dairy Queen). We take a lot of pride in our home and constantly look to upgrade.

Why they chose this property

If you want the positively best Wells Beach experience, then stay right on the beach. This home is the ultimate in convenience and experience. You can watch the tide come in and go out from the deck or living room. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean from your comfortable chair on your deck is absolutely therapeutic. This home is also strategically located between Public Way #2 and Public Way #3. The distance from both can decrease the potential for crowds that is sometimes seen right at the exit of a Public Way. The location of this home is absolutely amazing.

What makes this property unique

Beachfront Location- Right there - 180 degree ocean views - People watching from your deck - Large windows looking out over the Atlantic Ocean everyday
