Family Reunion 2024

What a great place for our family of 6 siblings plus spouses. Each had their own bedroom and bathroom which was a real perk. The living area and kitchen was enough room for us to all be together. The location to the beach was perfect!

Nice location. Missing a few items.

No cloths hangers. No kitchen basics like salt, peeper or sugar, other than dishes, a few countertop appliances and silverwear. One Kurag didn't work. Closet light out in 2nd floor, NW bedroom. Very leaky ouside shower. That one really needs to get fixed. Lots of water is being wasted. Other than those few things, we liked the location and the house itself.

Awesome beach front house!

Loved the easy access to the beach, clean rooms, and well furnished style. A little lacking on kitchen items but overall a great stay!

On the beach!

This is directly on the beach. Can`t ask for closer to the beach than this. You can easily walk back and forth to get your drinks or food and come back. Excellent pricing for this type of value.

Family Vacation

Excellent place to stay. A family vacation with 16 people, enough room and having all the bathrooms was beneficial. Beach was absolutely gorgeous. Would highly recommend. We did have to purchase some kitchen hand towels and dish cloths. Also brought our own extra silverware as there would not have been enough.

Family week

The house was clean great location. The elevator was out and one person in our group was on crutches which made going in and out quite difficult. The internet went out on day 2 but we had a wedding so we were in and out for one of the days. We didn’t call it in immediately. The company did promptly come out but they were unable to fix it, I did receive a small credit for the inconvenience. Over all I would recommend the property and probably book again at this location. were not able to fi

Great location, spacious

Our group of 10 adults and two kids stayed 5 nights at this location. Awesome view and access directly to the beach. Nice to have bathrooms for each of the bedrooms. AC worked great and lots of space to all hang out. The kitchen was sort of well stocked but lacked some basics like spoons, pot holders, dish towels. Grill is a very simple charcoal style grill - no grill tools and the lid has no handle so a bit tricky to use. Overall nice place, but stop by the store for paper plates, cups, paper towels, and utensils on your way.

Casa Del Mar is a wonderful home!

This home was so very comfortable and we had plenty of room for our crew of 9 adults, 1 child and 3 infants! Everyone was comfortable and pleased with their space! The master bedroom and bath was great! The bed was so comfortable! It was such a great space! The house was well stocked and clean! I would highly recommend this home for any large family's needs! Thank you to Vacasa for an easy rental process and the home owners for providing such a beautiful home for our family to enjoy!!

Summer Beach Trip

Had an amazing time with family! Had stayed there 2 years ago and they made several upgrades! Beds were awesome and overall space for 11 of us was great! Love being right on the beach with having littles and on different schedules. Some can stay at the beach while others go in for naps! Ice maker was slow, so would be nice to have more ice available for a hot week! Needs more silverware and kitchen hand towels. Would be amazing to have king beds for the queen rooms too. Also would love to know the brand of the king mattress in the master bedroom??

Casa del Mar

Excellent location, near to downtown, pretty and well-kept inside, open layout, 7 bedrooms, tons of baths. We felt so pampered with the large jetted master bathtub with a huge window overlooking the ocean. Really liked the private deck off the master bedroom. There is a very helpful ice maker appliance that was so helpful. Be sure to pack extras for the kitchen if you plan on cooking, such as spices, food storage containers, plasticwrap, large edged cookie sheet, crock pot, extra dish towels etc. Also bring anything for a beach day, chairs, blanket, towels, etc. We were very pleased with the house.

The location of this property is perfect. The number of en suite bathrooms was perfect. The kitchen is well stocked and big. There is a laundry room upstairs and downstairs. The patios and furniture is nice. The property does need some upgrades. The living room furniture is really worn and feels dirty (has a smell). The carpet has a lingering cigarette smoke smell. Our clothes smelled of smoke when we got back home, we had to rewash everything.
