Love the place and location
Having come back to Hess for the second time and probably we will be back next year, tells a lot. I love the set up of the house and it is just a few yards to the beach. It is close to church and the grocery store.

Awesome location, bad service, mediocre house
Let's start with the positive:
- the location is unbelievably good: 2 minutes walk from the ocean.
- clean bed linen and towels
House is mediocre at best: pretty old. It is shaky, when somebody walks the stairs, you feel like you are on waves, feels dangerous.
- showers and taps were leaking
Bad:
- Our first day of reservation has been cancelled 2 days before. Given we are from Canada, some of us just had to spend one extra day/night on the road. There was a refund for the first day + Vacasa credit towards the next trip + a lot of apologies.
- Non-existent (at least, I would expect more): dust everywhere - we had to vacuum; dirty dishes and utensils.
- the AC system unit is located pretty much in one of the bedrooms, i.e. a lot of noise.

In need of an update…
Hess is situated in the third row with super confident beach access. The exterior of the home looks to have been updated however the rest of the house needs attention. We would not rent this property again. The deck is incredibly splintered and hard to walk on. The grill is rusted to the point of not being useable. The kitchen stove burners do not all work. One was replaced for us during our stay and it blew out again. Supplies in the kitchen (pots, silverware) are not well stocked. The kitchen and living room furniture are terribly uncomfortable and should be replaced. Many lightbulbs were burned out. Curtains are falling down and windows require tools to properly close. One shower knob does not function well and the tub shower combo is in bad shape. It was serviced while we stayed due to water pouring into the laundry room when turned on but it could use an upgrade as well. During our stay we had to have a plumber, cleaner, and a dry wall person visit for repairs along with the stove being serviced. This is inconvenient while on vacation. With the proper attention and upgrades this small home would make a great basic vacation property but we would not recommend staying in its current condition.

Looks can be deceiving
These pictures must have been from 10-15yrs ago. The house, the deck, the furniture, is way more weathered than these pics make it seem. We had issues with the house holding a cool temperature. We couldn't use the backyard, it's made of sand, weeds, and sticker bushes. I would not walk on that deck barefoot. Uneven boards, nails rising out of them, hasn't been treated in years. Otherwise the location isn't bad. A short walk to the beach, it's a hot one, but not too long. Many other homes surrounding this one look 100% better. Offering pools or better hangout areas. We were really disappointed with Hess.
