Has what you need
It has what you are looking for. Easy access to the beach, hot tub, beds, tv, easy drive to explore around. Hot tub was great to have!Don't forget to bring beach chairs to really stay at the beach all day!Only real complaint was that the pans aren't the best and were dirty. They work and get the job done, but had to clean them.

Secluded & serene
Loved the wooded surrounding & quiet yet only a 10 min stroll to beach. If you have trouble with stairs though, look elsewhere. Great place to walk your dog. The downstairs inside is comfortable but in need of updating.

Great!
We enjoyed the wooded setting and privacy of this vrbo. It was a short walk to the beach. Very roomy and comfortable for a family of four. We would definitely stay here if we come back to Westport!

Beautiful cozy home close to beach
This place exceeded our expectations. It is a beautiful home, with plenty of room. Well furnished, continue for 4 miles well stopped with utensils. The hot tub was a very nice amenity, and so is the fire pit. The kids had a blast we would definitely like to use this place again when we travel to Westport

Very nice place
Place was exactly what I wanted: Property was a little off the beaten path (had to turn off a paved road), easily in walking distance to the beach and everything was as described.

Family get away
This place was perfect for our family. We have three teenagers and 11-year-old, and a dog in this place was absolutely perfect. Private in the forest extremely close to the beach. We were able to relax rest and enjoy our time. Hope to come back to this location.

Great house close to the beach
We loved the hot tub and the fire pit, and wish we could have stayed longer! The 10am checkout time felt pretty brutal when we stayed up late and wanted to have a nice breakfast in the morning. Our only other complaint was the very thin and rough toilet paper. If we stay here again we would probably bring a roll of our own!

Beach Getaway
Myself and a few friends stayed at the Sand Castle Beach House for 3 nights. It was comfortable overall and a short walk to the beach! The hot tub was relaxing and very clean which was nice. We didn’t use the grill but it looked well maintained and easy to use. The house is in good condition overall but could benefit from some slight updating. The oven and stove top set off the alarm every time it was used- we tried to make tea in the morning and woke the whole house up! Aside from waiting for late check in due to cleaning not being done and waiting to hear back about a charging cord that we need sent back to us, everything was good! A very nice little beach house!

Beautiful Home
Spent 4 nights in this lovely home. The property is beautiful and private and the beach is a short walk. Little things matter like having a soft bed, pillows, lots of towels, a comfortable couch, big TV, bright and airy and a things you need in the kitchen. The hot tub was wonderful and we enjoyed our stay! Thank you

Weekend Trip
This property was selected based on the number of people it could fit and number of rooms. I was so disappointed by the cleanliness of this place - sticky walls and chairs, dirty floors that hadn't been swept, dirty used toilet paper in the bathroom, kitchen counters and stove were not cleaned and the list went on. We spent a few hours cleaning during our "vacation". While we were not charged a cleaning fee, it made the stay the focus rather than an enjoyable weekend at the beach. Vrbo's main office got back to me, but the local office never connected with me. After 3 requests, I gave up. Just so sad.

Sand Castle
The home was in a nice quiet location. King bed was comfortable. Couches were comfortable as well. Wanted to use BBQ grill but it was out of propane. Informed Vacasa in hopes that the local team would bring some out, NEVER happened. A third party is used to treat the hot tub and the kid didn’t know what he was doing. It had brown/yellowish foam and ring around the hot tub, gross! Careful when you walk out the laundry room door to get to the hot tub, the nails are coming out of the wood and it hurts really bad when you step on them.

Nice private house near ocean
Great location, close to sites and town, and very private wooded lot close to the ocean. Hot tub was an extra perk. Enjoyed the deer roaming around. House was nicely laid out for the 6 of us. Burning ban, but outside fire pit looked like a nice area. Lots of towels and basic supplies like TP but no tissue. The negative was that the carpets were stained and needed cleaning, bathroom floor rug looked dirty, and overall cleaning could use improvement (found food wrappers under / around beds in single bed room. Overall though nice property for the price.

Great secluded beach location
We loved this secluded house that is only a 4 minute walk to the ocean. Very private and quiet. House was basically everything we needed. Small complaints are that the carpet throughout the house is dirty, stained, and many thorns that poke your bare feet when walking around. Working washing machine would have been appreciated as it was advertised to have one but found out upon arrival that it was out of order. However, the hot tub was lovely and all other appliances worked well. Lovely shower as well. Would recommend to future families looking for a nice house in Westport.

Great location, could use a little tlc
Initial impression wasn't great--main floor toilet was leaking. Turns out it just keeps running so rather than deal with maintenance people, we turned off the valve. Sticky kitchen counter tops, crumbs on the "clean" dishes in the cabinets, dead bugs in the fridge, and an inside temperature of under 60 because the heat was off and then we found that all the floor vents were closed. Towels in the washer, sheets that were maybe not clean... We spent the first hour changing the beds and cleaning the kitchen. After that, we had a fabulous time. It's literally under 5 minutes to the beach and it's wonderfully quiet. The firepit was perfect and there's tons of parking. The wooded grounds of the house are marred a bit by a couple trash dumps but we avoided them after the first day. The hot tub was great and we knew it was clean because the hot tub maintenance man showed up the second day. So much for solitude. The storm that knocked out power for 18 hours was thrilling but the beach was still wonderful. There's games and tons of emergency lighting. The gas fireplace was a blessing. We enjoyed our stay but we expected a bit more for our money. The towels were tatty, paint was shabby and no welcoming touches like at other VRBOs we've stayed at. I think we'll stick to non-corporate owned in the future.

I have PICTURES, disgusting, ONLY bedding changed between guests, customer service? Lol unsanitary R
Summarized for detail, Arrived around 6 to find strange woman smoking in driveway thought cleaner? NOT cleaner. House was nasty.. the only thing changed inbetween guests was the bedding there was hair EVERYHERE, floor, counters, drawers, shower. Pubic hair on both toilet seats, in the shower and bathroom floor, SAND at least 1/4 cup in the shower, 1/2 the lightbulbs were burned out, outside garbage over flowing and stinking, THICK dust, wrote my name, missing remote in master. Couldnt watch it, ill equipt kitchen, good luck, most outdoor furniture was broken, I was injured more then once, BBQ so full of old grease ect our food caught fire multiple times, fire pit never shoveled, gate on deck broken, downstairs bathroom faucet and drain, NASTY kitchen cupboards/microwave caked on food. At 6:17 I recieved a text from vasca (a joke of a company) asking about the cleanliness and asked for a rating. I gave one and explained even sent pictures, they apologized and said they were working closely with the local staff to get this resolved, asked if I needed anything I said cleaner and lightbulbs. At 11:15 AT NIGHT, I recieved a text from them & they asked for more photos and info, I had already sent 17 photos and very detailed info. After driving for 6 hours getting there and having to deep clean i was women up by them. After that I never heard another word until check out day, asking for a review. When I inquired about lack of response I was patronized. Awful people. Awful compa

Good Location
The house has great potential. Some items to note: Rooms are nestled closely on the same floor. One shower/toilet upstairs. Master bed. Comfortable and large. Squeaky 2nd bed. Comfortable for children 3rd "bed". A hideaway couch and trundle bed in a small room with access to deck. Not a safe space for kids. Warning "don't lean on railing". The room is too small to open the hideaway couch, the trundle cannot be used unless you rearrange the room to extend. Awkward and I wouldn't put children in there. The bedrooms were clean. Bath towels were dingey. Could use a bleaching. The kitchen wasn't clean. Pots and pans had baked on food. Spent my first day sanitizing everything. Hot tub was milky. Could also use a cleaning. Didn't use. Living room was Comfortable. But also looked like it hadn't been thoroughly cleaned in some time. IE: crumbs in cushions. For the cost it wasn't bad. Hopefully the local cleaning crew steps up thier game. Access to beach via 5 minute walk. The trail will soon be blocked due to new homes being built.
