Great location

This was a great place for our family and two dogs. The inside was clean and well appointed, and the beds were fairly comfortable. Great location… only a 5 min walk to the beach. Nice pool and hot tub as well. My only criticism is that the decks and fencing were a bit tired. Everything was solid and safe but could use some maintenance.

Graduation getaway

Great location and close to the beach, house was in good order. Did find several nails around the pool area and driveway. We let the management know and heard nothing in response.

Great location

Location was perfect. A nice walk to the beach. The place was a bit older than we realized. The hot tub wasn’t working properly and staying hot. Had an ant problem when we first arrived as well as a bed was broken but those were resolved quickly.

Fantastic location for a laid back vacation

House could use plastic cups, particularly for around the pool. Minor stuff wrong (toilet paper holders, pool gate and doors hard to close), but overall great property. Early checkout was a bit tough.

Overall Good Stay

We had a pretty nice stay at Whaler’s Inn. The location is very convenient to the beach (only a few doors up from a walkway to the beach that has good access for beach wagons). The rental was clean, and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. The inside of the unit was really nice and relaxing. All in all it was a good stay.A couple items that should be noted.The inside was nice but the outside of the property is showing considerable wear. You can see some items having been fixed recently but others will likely need to be fixed in the near future. The internet is very slow, so slow in fact that we had to use our phones as hotspots the entire week to use laptops (so think before booking if you plan to work on your trip). Lastly, we had a bee issue that we reported our second day that never was resolved. The property management company called us mid week saying they received the message and someone would be out but nobody ever showed up. Unfortunately, we had someone with us that was allergic that was not able to enjoy the outside space as a result. All that being said, if you are traveling with a focus on being at the beach you really couldn’t ask for a better location.
