Great location!!! The house was okay……. None of the fan lights actually worked and the “beds made” was just a blanket on top of a mattress protector. Thought it was an error but every bed was the same way. The kitchen was great and fully stocked. From the porch you can easily watch the ocean.

This is my third or fourth time at this house. I love the older charm. The knotty pine walls and the size is perfect. The kitchen is great. The front screened in porch and deck have ocean view and it's so relaxing.

The kitchen was fully equipped with everything. The coffee pot had coffee grounds in it. It rained the whole time during the days we were down there which I know no one can help that it just needs some updating. I think windows would be good on the front porch because it was raining and cold while we were there we like sitting out there, but it was very cold. I would probably rent again . It was a good view of the beach. It was great to be able to take the pet with us.

Exactly what we were looking for in a classic beach house - comfortable, clean, and laid back. Everything we needed was provided for which contributed to a wonderful visit. The front porch with the ocean view was my favorite part of the house. Will definitely rent again!

We had wonderful time staying at this property. Easy walking distance to the beach, grocery store and restaurants. I would stay here again. Can see beach from kitchen island. Furniture was a bit dated especially in the living room, but for the price we weren’t too concerned.

Perfect Location, Super Clean

The Gulls Nest was an absolute gem of a location with the beach right across the street. The place was exceptionally clean and was a very comfortable place to stay. Be sure to pay notice to the details that no linens or towels are provided.

4/10 Poor

Liked: Location
The house is old but sanitation is non-negotiable. The mop was leaning against the dining table when we arrived but the floor in that area was not mopped. The refrigerator was filthy and we had to clean it before placing food in it. The counters in the kitchen were dirty and had to be wiped down. It was bad to the point that I ask for some compensation from the manager. He wanted to send cleaners in the FOLLOWING DAY to clean and evaluate the situation. We weren’t going to stay in those unsanitary conditions. We took care of it. One of our group has COPD. Because of weather conditions, we spent a lot of time in the house. His conditions worsened and we left in the afternoon prior to our final day. There was no offer of compensation.
