Great stay
The property was in a great location and the house was nice. The outdoor entertainment area was our favorite hangout (we could have done without the 1,000 mosquitos.) It’s a good trip when the only issue you have is not being able to find the outdoor remote. Lol We enjoyed it and would highly recommend folks to book here!

Great for large family beach get away.
This house is perfect for a large family or a big group of friends. We had 12 and the house as very comfortable for all of us. The home was clean with newer linens and pillows and fully stocked with enough plates, cups, cooking pans and utensils. We had plenty of towels and were able to all get a shower one after the other which is normally hard with that many people. Most houses we stayed at we would have to bring our own extra towels or wait to shower for hot water. The outside area is private and perfect for kids to Play and a great place to prep food and eat at the outdoor table. It’s also fully covered so you can enjoy time outside if it rains while you’re on your trip like it did with us. The outdoor shower was great to have to wash all sand off before you head inside and the little kids really enjoyed the pool. Only thing that I wish we had were hangers for closets. We had a lot of clothes with so many people and it was a little overwhelming living out of suitcases. Otherwise our trip was great and we will keep this house in mind for our next trip out that way!

Description lacking major details
Overall we enjoyed our stay but would choose to stay somewhere else next time. The house was very well cleaned and communication with the host was very prompt. However, we felt the listing left our major details. The bedroom located down the “hallway” was actually downstairs located off the outdoor area separate from the house. The kitchen was poorly stocked including lacking potholders to take things out of the oven and basic necessities for cooking. It is also important to bring your own toilet paper and paper towels as they provide only a very limited amount. These things were not found in the description or information provided by the host. Some of the previous reviews mentioned issues with bugs but that was not a problem for us.

Poorly maintained and unuseable facilities
The home was large and checkin was easy. After that, it was all downhill. The area downstairs adverised as an out door family area had a broken faucet and none of the electric lights or plugs worked There was trash and bits of bone and shh everywhere The upstairs shower leaked directly icer the downstairs patio atea making jt difficult to use The pool filtration system wasnt working either The interior if the house was dirty The sofa had holes and disgusting stains There were roaches throughout the kitchen an baths We went to make coffee in the coffee maker and roaches crawled out The beds had no mattress pads The bathrooms had mold in the corners and the bath tubs were dirty. I communicated immediately with the property manager they responded quickly but could not repair the sink and electric until halfway through our stay They did not fix the shower drain or address the roaches Overall, we were very disappointed and will likely not use VRBO again

Absolutely horrible
Where to begin. Roaches everywhere, we had roaches climbing on kids in the middle of the night. The listing stats 4 bedrooms 3 bathrooms, but what it fails to mention is that one of the bedrooms ( the one with 2 beds) is outside and the bathroom is also outside. The bedroom that is outside has mold and is unusable. When you use the bathroom upstairs, water falls into the 1st floor backyard. The oven didnt work, the sink in the backyard was broken and cannot be used. Rhe garage is full of trash and construction debris, it cannot be used. The pictures are not what this house look like. If you want to enjoy your vacation DO NOT STAY here, is hazardous and dangerous. I would expect someone form VRBO to contact me in regards of a refund.

Roach Infested
The house is in a great location and that's the only good thing about it. Shortly after we arrived we realized there was a roach infestation. I'm not talking about the expected big flying water roaches that you'd expect on the coast. There were tons of German roaches inside the house. They're all over the kitchen and bathrooms. Within 5 minutes of setting the pizza we ordered on the counter there were roaches in it and we had to toss it along with other food we'd brought. There were roaches (full size and babies) in the drawers, cabinets, under the fridge, in the toilet paper rolls, on the dishes, etc. It was absolutely disgusting. The property manager said they'd send the maintenence crew to come spray but they never came. We spent a lot of money to stay here for a weekend and half my family (including me) were terrified to go to sleep at night. I would not recommend wasting your money staying at this house unless you're ok with sharing it with nasty, dirty roaches.

Pros and Cons
Pros: The owner responds quickly to questions/concerns The house is cute Cons: Lots of roaches. The owner did say they treat for pest control regularly. However, the roaches we saw were German roaches. You need to treat differently for those The paint is peeling on the primary bathroom door. Also what appears to be rust below the faucet in the primary bathtub The bed frames are very thin and mattresses are lumpy. However, we did expect a lumpy mattress since so many have stayed here You have to pay $100 to use the community pool The beach is within driving distance and you can't hear the waves Some of the flooring is coming up in the living room

Weekend getaway
Rented this property for a little relaxation time. Good location if you don’t want to stay near the traffic along the Seawall. Still close enough if you want to head that way and be in the middle of it. Access to the beach is less than a two minute drive by vehicle or golf cart. Very spacious living quarters.

Cruise Eve Stay
We booked this property for our cruise group to all stay together. The neighborhood was really fun. We had dinner down at the marina and watched the sunset. We had a few drinks and listened to live music before heading back to the house. However, the downstairs bedroom was unbearably musty and moldy smelling. We were unable to use this room in the house and had to improvise sleeping arrangements. We made it work! The patio area was really cool but our stay wasn’t long enough to enjoy. We would stay here again.
