Great stay

House was great and close to the beach, maybe 2 block walk to private beach which was nice with less people. House was clean, cozy, and comfortable. Beds slept great. Would stay again. Only minor complaints would be no access to 3rd story patio, alot of mosquitoes with the nice shaded trees, and bathrooms had pocket doors that didnt really lock and no privacy to master bathroom which all is ok if you just have one person or a couple to a room but if you have other people it might bother you. Again, those are minor, house was great overall, makes you want to retire and live the beach life.

Great House and Beach Access

My family and I really enjoyed the house and especially the private beach access. Walk to the beach was super close and we saved money on cancelling our La Dove Vida reservation for our chairs and umbrellas and just used the local provider. If you have your own beach chairs and umbrellas, the private beach access is the way to go. The beach house was meticulous and such a cozy beach house that was extremely relaxing, the only issue that hindered our experience was the top balcony access was locked per the beach house owners instructions. Our intent was to use that top balcony to view the 4th of July fireworks, so that was a letdown, but the overall experience was great!

Great house and location - management team is poor

We have stayed on this street for over a decade and have stayed in this house 3 times. This past summer was the first year with this property management team. The house is perfect and the location and beach are great. The property management communicated well about the check in/out process. When we checked in on Saturday, we noticed that the bed in the loft was broken. We filled out the “fix form” and we never heard from them in regards to our concerns. I filled out a review and sent it to the management team and I still have not heard from them. Very disappointing. Will be very hesitant to rent from the management team again.

Host was great, very responsive. Close to the beach and clean. The only couple of areas we could see improvement in is the toilet in the Queen room, it clogged very easily and the pillows were flat. Other than that, we had a great stay!
