Turtle Love

The property was very neat and clean. It was reasonably close to beaches and food. Great neighborhood to walk in. The couch was not the most comfortable and the pillows need updating, but we managed just fine. The turtles out at the dock were great to see. Every time we went out there it only took about 5 minutes before there were at least 20 or so, very peaceful.

Concha house

Cute place..great yard with wildlife & privacy with nice trees & screened porch. Kayaks were a bonus. Safe neighborhood. Clean. Everything nice...my only issue..and I don't want to call it a complaint..the couch might have been the most uncomfortable I ever sat on. Host was great & easy to reach

Decent Stay

The house was nice, and the kids enjoyed looking for turtles from the dock, but there’s not privacy in from the neighbors. The floors were not clean and there were ants- not ideal with young children. All in all it was a fine place to stay, but when you pay a 150 for cleaning,you expect it to be clean when you arrive. Also didn’t love the request for guests to replace paper towels, toilet paper and soap.

This cozy little house worked well for our group of 3. Short drive to beach areas around Sebastian, Indian river parks and other sights. The area is really quiet, the kitchen is new. Beds were comfy and seating area was great for relaxing and TV. We liked the little dock and the large screened porch. Communication with the host was excellent, and she went out of her way to send us items we left behind. Exceptional.

Sweet spot for a getaway!

The house on Concha was great for a week long get-away for my husband and I! Though it rained every afternoon/evening, we enjoyed our days on the prestine beaches of Sebastian and Vero! We only got to use the kayaks once, due to the weather, and besides the awful bug bites, we enjoyed them very much! The bikes were super fun to ride around the neighborhood on! A few additions to the property could take this property from a 4-star to a 5-star review: 1. More quality kitchen supplies. The measuring cup was cracked, the non-stick skillets are scratched and flaking teflon (buy stainless, they last forever), no baking dish was available (I had to run to Dollar General for a foil pan), and utensil supply was minimal. 2. Provide games, puzzles and books for guest. There are awesome book shelves around the door but no books or games on them. (People read on the beach like no where else in the world!) A few options of games or puzzles for a rainy day, besides T.V. would be ideal. 3. Provide ample beach supplies. There are only 2 beach towels in the closet. If my kids had come with us we would have had to use your nice bath towels. Sand toys and a buggie board or two would be great for kids. There was no beach umbrella but the host allowed us to purchase one and she reimbursed us. 4. King bed in the master would be more appealing for guests and better pillows are needed. Overall, we had a FABULOUS time and would book here again! Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Excellent location, quiet neighborhood.

Check in was easy. Ashley even allowed us to check in early. House is very clean and nicely updated recently. Beds are very comfortable and such a plus to have 2 full bathrooms for the 4 adults in our group. Our favorite spot was the small dock in the back yard, right on a canal.

Location

This house was in wonderful condition it had so many great perks the host was amazing. I believe my only problem was the location, as when you rent a VRBO the location was not accurate. In the experience I have with VRBO I have come to realize that you find out location after you pay your money. The location wasn’t horrible it just wasn’t where I thought it was but it was close enough not to cancel.
