House was great! Spacious and perfect for a family of 4 with teenagers. Within walking distance of the wharf, boardwalk, and morning coffees. Was a great retreat.
This was the perfect house for a weekend getaway with friends. The location is great- easy access to beach, mountains, and restaurants. The beds were incredibly comfortable and the hot tub was a delight after hiking. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed to cook meals. Hosts were easy to communicate with.
The home is a beautiful, comfortable, large space and we easily could have brought our mates with us and had plenty of room. Location is quiet and yet close to beach and town. The perfect peaceful space for our weekend together celebrating old friends!
O'Neill's home, that's one of the best places to stay.I'd never get disappointed every time when I stay on one of their homes.Always clean! Always comfortable!
Great stay and great proximity to a family member who lives there. There was a weird smell under the sink that we couldn’t figure out and no dishwasher pods which I assumed they provided. overall this was a great choice.
Beautiful, clean, quiet home. Enjoyed our stay. Only negative was problems with TV. Too complicated. Suggest getting one simple TV with one simple remote. Also, having a co-tenant was uncomfortable.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was amazing, quick walk to the boardwalk and beaches.House was nice.Not as clean as i would expect, mold in washing machine. 2 of the rooms are so bright without curtains that you will be up when the sun is up. No air filters in the vents. The tenant that lives there walks around constantly upstairs from 8pm to 12am. Stomping and slamming doors. Makes staying with small kids hard.
Most everything was great. Except that I received multiple threatening notices for noise while using the hot tub at 10:45am on a Sunday morning. So no music or Sunday Funday fun or you will be charged extra and kicked out. We are a few mons with their teen kids having a weekend together. I would never rent this place again. There apparently are upstairs neighbors and that was not disclosed or I may have opted for a stand alone house. At least I would have k ow there were additional Yemenis on property and could have avoided mast threats.
