Disliked: Cleanliness
Enjoyed except the house was not cleaned well! Floors were sandy when we got there and live and dead bugs were found through the stay.! Dryer did not work very well! Decks were not very clean even though we realized that’s an outside area! For the money we paid we just felt like it was not up to par.! We have rented there for the last two years but will not rent this house again.!

Perfect Spring Break spot for all of us
This house was so well stocked! Puzzles, chess, stereo, EVERY cooking appliance or utensil that you could ever need. I’m impressed. Our family of 5 + a few friends for my kids and my mother in law had plenty of space to enjoy our week at the beach. Our group ranged in age from 8yrs old-70+ and we all had a great stay. The teens loved the bunk room and the rest of us enjoyed a little space from them on the ground floor. Great spot- we hope to return.

House👍. VACASA 👎
The house is good. Loved the porches and the neighborhood. Kitchen is well stocked. The second floor mattress needs to be replaced ASAP. Beach towels and some extra blankets would be a good addition. VACASA was horrbile w/ communication. Leading up to our trip i contacted them 2x. Both times took them 3 weeks to respond! We had a shower faucet break our first full day. They did not communicate the status of the repair. We had to continually call them. Their calls seem to be out sourced out of the US. Very hard to understand the reps. The shower wasnt repaired until day 5 of 7, in the evening. So we instead dealt w a 3BR, 2.5 Bath for most of the stay. We paid for a 3BR, 3 Bath. Will avoid dealing w/ VACASA in the future. Id think we should have some refund due to us.

Very nice neighborhood with community pool. Location to the beach was perfect. Close to restaurants. Unit may be a tad run down but was still exactly what we needed. Highly recommend Vacasa’s. Reservation process was easy and they were in constant communication with me from beginning to end.

Amazing stay! Didn’t want to leave
This neighborhood has the greatest LOCATION . The village is quiet and adorable. Easy beach access and amazing view. The pond behind with fountain is so soothing. Frogs came out our last week and were noisy but lull you to sleep. The house has a lot of room, clean and cozy. Beautiful decks that get great sunshine all day. Will definitely stay again. Very happy with our decision and location.

Great stay in Santa Rosa
Really enjoyed this property on a quick getaway with our family. Fantastic location just steps away from the beach and 30A shops and restaurants. Lots of space for a family of 4 to spread out. Would stay here again!

The house was a great size with a short walk to the beach and yummy restaurant close by. The bed were not the best but wasn’t bad. We stay during the busy summer. I think it could have been a little more deep cleaned. We enjoy our stay and would stay again!

Great location! Beautiful property
Loved it! Clean with all the comforts of home. Beautiful beach so close by! The bikes were a big hit! Best Ice cream place ever on the corner and loved Goatfeathers restaurant. Only concern was that the bunk bed structure was rather wobbly… had to move our 10 year old grandson onto the pull out couch as it did not seem safe on the top bunk.

Nice
As described. Very spacious, great area & we LOVE that it was pet friendly!!!!! There were window installers there the day we checked in & they left the floors pretty gross & spilled soda down the wall… but that was no fault of the owner/cleaning crew. We most definitely would stay here again.

Just sweet dreams
House was just what we needed for accommodations. All was good except we felt as though remodeling wasn’t completed and time ran out so let’s just rent it and finish later. Shelves in closets not complete . Junk still in drawers. Decks show splattered paint. But after that said we would still rent the house again because of the layout and location

Lots of space
Kids loved the bikes. Good location for walking to beach. Nice clean home with plenty of decks for relaxing. We had 8 big people and one baby. Plenty of room for all. Downside was not enough trash bags or toilet paper. Asked for more trash bags, but they never arrived. Had to go buy more. 2 bags for a week with 9 people and diapers is not enough.

Happy House was great!
We’ve stayed in this neighborhood the last few summers, but this was our first time at Happy House. It’s very convenient to the beach and it was great to have the 4 rental bikes. The layout was good and had plenty of space for our family of 5. Downside (reason for 4 instead of 5 stars)....the master bedroom bed is EXTREMELY uncomfortable. Please upgrade that bed. For the price, the master bed should have been a comfortable place to sleep and it wasn’t.

Great, quiet location. Only drawback is not a ton of open living space inside if there are actually 12 people staying (sleeps up to 12).
