Wonderful OCEANFRONT property!!

Enjoyed the beautiful views of the ocean and spaciousness of the living area and kitchen. We loved the pool and hot tub and porch. Bedrooms were all well-appointed. Had plenty of parking for our group. Would stay again!

Best ever large family vacation spot. Bedrooms large enough to accommodate port-a-cribs. Loved the layout, spacious rooms, large commercial refrigerator, deep freezer and ice maker. The location on the beach in a less busy part of town was perfect. Pool was wonderful with added bonus of hot tub. Called owner for problem with doors to the deck. Appreciated that a live person answered the call and service technician arrived within an hour to fix the issue. We easily parked 7 vehicles in spacious driveway and no one had to move their SUVs or trucks to get in or out. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property for your family/friends for a beach get-away. We loved it!

Great House, Great Location!

House was big enough for our large group of friends celebrating our joint 60th bday. Right on the beach with fabulous deck and pool that enabled us to sit and enjoy the ocean from the deck and the beach. Plenty of space to comfortably accomodate the group. Very close to beach bar (Schooners), and other adult and family entertainment. Top bedroom accessible by spiral stairs, so be prepared. Really enjoyed our stay at this house!!!

Very awesome place to stay it was spacious and totally equipped for our needs. Great communication with host. Only thing we ran across was sand was not cleaned out of couch cracks and ceiling fans were dusty.

The Best Beach House

Everything was perfect! The house location with the pool, the hot tub, the view from the kitchen/living room, even the weather was perfect everyday. They even had a high chair for our 1-year old infant. Every morning, I had my coffee on the beach - no one was within 500 yards of me in either direction. I hesitate to leave this great review because I fear we may have trouble trying to re-book this house in the future since it may not be available! We had the most wonderful trip! 5 Stars!

Framily Vacation

Overall, this location was wonderful for our friends group to enjoy a quick get-away! A more accurate detailed listing of electronics in the kitchen would have been helpful in packing/preparing (i.e. there were like 3 or 4 crockpots, but there wasn't any of that indicated that on the listing). There were a few dirty dishes in the kitchen and the 2nd floor had a few unclean places, i.e. the floor and a bathroom sink. Our group had 23 adults and kids; it was PERFECT for our rambunctious kids to have a wonderful time and the adults to relax.

Family vacation

Everything was clean and fine. For the cost of the house, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom seemed like an unnecessary shortcoming. Owner was responsive to have maintenance personnel come out for refrigerator, sliding glass doors and ice maker. This was our first experience with a VRBO being shown as a property for sale, and having perspective buyers walk through, while we were staying.

Family Vacation

We had a group of adult cousins (ages 63-78) from Arizona, Nevada, California and New York meet for a wonderful week at Ben’s Beach House, Making Waves. Check in was easy and the house was spotless upon our arrival. Although there were “double red flags” for ocean swimming, there is nothing like sitting down by the ocean and getting your feet wet. It also seemed like there were several of us always around and in the pool each and every day. The area has something for everyone to do. We enjoyed several rounds of golf and visited several of the local bars and restaurants. The kitchen is fantastic! We prepared quite a few meals and found everything we needed was provided. The extra deep freezer and the industrial size refrigerator had plenty of room for all of our food and (adult) beverages. This property will not disappoint, I highly recommend Making Waves !

Girls Trip Getaway

Better then the pictures!!!! This place is amazing, the amenities of pool and hot tub and view CANNOT BE BEAT! I took a group of friends and now have to go back with family too. The dishwasher wasn't working halfway through our stay and there are no beach chairs/toys so that's the only thing I might add, but other than that it was fantastic! Plan to go back!
