This is an excellent property for 2 families that want to share an Up/Down place, giving you some benefits of being together, but also being able to retire to your side of the house if you want to. Two full kitchens! The host was friendly and communicative, and even let us know we had a door ajar, which turned off the A/C!! (Yeah, door wasnt open, just ajar, and A/C stopped. strange.) It got warm, but glad they let us know. Also, the house has a bin fill of beach chairs... probably dont need to bring your own.The only real hesitation i'd have on renting again is that the host let us know we were not expected to have family guests at the house. When we go to HB, we try to get as many families to go at the same time as possible, and we definitely want to see each other. To hear we're not supposed to do this was very disappointing. (It was in the contract apparently, but i'm not so sure its well advertised in advance - so just word of warning: This might not be for you if having multiple families and houses for the same week in HB!)
