Not What Was Expected

First let me say the owner of the property was very responsive to our texts when we had issues. Quick turnaround. The pictures online are a bit outdated, so beware. We discovered that one of the fridges on the main floor was dirty and we cleaned it out. The floor was really dirty, it had not been vacuumed or swept. A lot of sand left from the previous rental party. We eventually requested the cleaning crew come back out. Rooms on the main floor are very small. Not much room to move around let alone keep your luggage. I can't speak to the rooms upstairs. Bathroom sizes were ok, but can't say they were very clean either. Drains were clogged and a lot of hard water stains on the shower handles and shower head. Gross. Time to update the towels. Kitchen supplies were not available. No sponge, dish soap. Cooking utensils were inadequate, dirty. Lots of forks, spoons and knives. Dicing, Cutting knives were dull, so if you plan on cooking/cutting bring your own. Interior of home overall felt like fraternity house. Towards the end of our stay we found what I think were fly nests or spider nests on the ceiling by the front door. Again, gross. Exterior of home was dirty, more spider nests all along the soffits. Grill was so badly worn out you could see the ground below. Due to proximity to the beach this could be a very nice stay, but unfortunately, maintenance and cleanliness is very lacking. Again, owner was very responsive when we expressed concerns.

The house was absolutely beautiful. There were plenty of bedrooms and sleeping space for 15 women. Having towels and on site laundry was very appreciated and it was all very clean. We were aware of the amount of paper products but wish there had been a better supply for toilet paper, paper towels, and garbage bags. We also had to buy dish soap to clean the dishes we could not put in the dishwasher. Overall, it was a pleasure to stay there and we highly recommend the property.

Great beach vacation for a large group

We had 5 couples and a toddler. We really enjoyed the property; it could have accommodated at least a few more couples, the beds were all king sized, there were an amazing number of television screens, two full sized refrigerator, and the grill worked great. We prepared several meals with no issues and played games around the large table. The location is great. We walked to the beach, bars, and restaurants. The grocery store is a 5 minute drive. The beach was wonderful and not crowded. We parked 3 large rental cars with no problems, and a 4th would have fit. The property was spotless and well maintained. The management company was responsive and communication was effective. We all agreed we would stay there again if we plan another large family vacation to Florida

Family vaca! Ages 8-70!

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this house. The location is second to none, literally just steps to the beach and definitely within walking distance to Pier 60! The space in the home is great. There were 14 of us and we never felt as though we were on top of one another. The home seems to have been popular since our last stay in 2022. Just little things, the stools at the table need replacing, some of the doors around the handles were dirty. I’m just being picky, it’s a great house in a great location. The kids loved the pool! The management company is awesome - they respond promptly to contacts and sent a rep very quickly (like within hours!) to remedy our AC and make it much more comfortable! Read thoroughly what is included so you can plan accordingly. All in all, great property in a great location.

An 80th Birthday family celebration

A memorable good time was had by all. The pool was a big plus. We got 6 cars in the parking area even though it was advertised as 3 or 4. When a severe rainstorm happens, water runs down the steps and with the incline water went into the bathroom and the living room. We used the beach towels to get it up. Perhaps when this happens, if no one is there, someone should check on it to prevent damage to the floors.

Great location and setup!

The description and pictures are very accurate. We knew the pool would be small but it served us well. This house really is perfect for a group -plenty of comfortable beds, which to me is always a number one priority. There are enough bathrooms, though little bit awkward of layout of bathrooms to bedrooms. Clearly the house is older- retrofitted but they’ve done a decent job of it ! However it’s starting to show some wear and tear in the kitchen and a few other places. I should warn everyone especially the downstairs bedrooms about the noise levels throughout the hous. You’re up until the last person goes to bed and awake when the first person gets up, these are not thick walls and you hear everything but that was ok for us. The location cannot be beat. Just on the edge of town which is perfect - easy to get to but you don’t have to listen to it and the beach access is wonderful. Would recommend for a big group! You do need lots of supplies to get through the week- trash bags, paper towels, dish soap, etc. we found very little spices and no pay it forward condiments etc. which drives up your grocery bill. And as everyone said older and very little kids would struggle with the spiral stairs. Regardless great management team super helpful and nice!

Large Family Vacay

We enjoyed our stay and the large house met our needs for the number of guests. There were tons of pool and beach toys/chairs/floats/towels available, which made the stay easier for packing. The kitchen did provide basic cooking needs and there were a handful of spices. There are 2 full size refrigerators in the kitchen and seating for 12 plus a sofa with a coffee table in the kitchen. Ample outdoor seating for 20. The property manager was easy to communicate with and provided quick responses. 14 smart tvs available and connectivity was great, even with the number of guests using the wifi. Only 1 bedroom has a private bathroom, all others are shared. We will def consider staying here in the future for a large group!

Great property ! Great location ! Great pool ! Air conditioning great ! Few things need improved:- bins outside were extremely full when we arrived and full of flies and maggots. No separation of recycling and general waste. Dishwasher rubbish. Doesn’t clean dishes properly Waste sink doesn’t work Not nearly enough bedding for sofa beds Gate doesn’t lock Main door doesn’t work properly. Keeps locking you out Area in one side of pool is earth and stones. Very smelly and wind blows dirt into pool all the time needs paved ! However we had a brilliant time !!
