LaborDayVacay

Annual Labor Day vacation with family is always a success when using VRBO, Are We there Yet home was Exactly what we needed! Just steps away from the Sand & Beach, woke up to a beautiful view & got to enjoy our coffee on the home balcony right outside our bedroom! Home was fully equipped and we cooked daily. We also loved that the home was on a private property & kept the beach very clean and secluded from tourist.

Perfect Beach Getaway

Karen communicated with us clearly between booking and check in. It’s in the perfect location to the beach. It was perfect for my bridesmaids and family during my wedding (as the walkover is directly next door) Check out was early, but other than that- it was a great stay!

Peaceful week

We have always enjoyed Are we there yet but with the updates, like the bedding and refrigerator. But no DVD player, no local channels that we could find so we got into Netflix. Overall much better than our last stay there.

My family rented this property the summer of 2015 and loved the house then. But the pictures of all of the updates look fantastic, I cannot wait to see all of the improvements in person this summer!

WOW! The upgrades Karen made to this beautiful house were great! From the new artwork, the new furniture, and the GREAT beds! With 2 families with adult children, there was more than enough room. Everything we needed was there! Thanks Karen for all of your kindness during our stay! See you next year ;)

Rough around the edges. Needs TLC. Pricey for what you get.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: In general everything worked. As my granddaughter put it when she first walked in the house is in “vintage” condition. Exterior is very weather worn. The stucco needs serious maintenance. The hurricane shutters have rusted thru their housings. The boardwalk is very “splintery”. No bare feet!!

Always Great House

Karen was great to work with. We’ve stayed here 8 or 9 times in past 15 years and love the house and layout. We normally have at least 2 of our children so it’s very roomy. They have fixed the beach chair setups but for 3 days our chairs were 150’ from our house. We ask the beach service guys to resolve it and they did 3 days later. But this is a new group now so they’re getting it figured out. This has little to do with Are We There Yet but The other thing, you can’t check in until 4pm and it’s been that way for several years now but check out keeps moving up and now it’s 9 am. Just be aware of the fine print 😕 As for the property, the owners have made some updates and I’m sure they’re working on some more. It’s still one of my favorite homes to stay in. Also know another big house is going up next door between the house and Walk-over. Didn’t bother us but it surprised us.

The Perfect Family Vacation House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A beautiful house with adequate space for 3+ families. For those who prefer not to eat out, one of the best equipped kitchens anywhere, including a brand new Weber gas grill downstairs. The cottage provides a quiet space apart from the morning or late evening hustle and bustle. Easy access to the beach and community pool, too. Despite very warm June temps, the A/C system keeps everyone cool and comfortable.
