Viento Vista Christmas 2024

We loved the house. The owner met us for the initial walk thru. Had two sets of keys- perfect for the guys to go fishing and the girls to junk shop. Christmas time was perfect. Temperatures was in the 70's each day. I recommend anyone who needs the space to check this one out. We ate in every meal but the last night we ordered pizza to save the clean up. Plan to go back as soon as we can work it out.

Vacay Paradise

This was a wonderful, beautiful place to stay, very clean and well maintained. It has a lovely yard. It is just a couple blocks to the beach which is within easy walking distance. Arlene was very friendly, nice, and helpful. We absolutely loved our vacation here and would definitely stay again.

15th Birthday Trip

Our trip was enjoyed by everyone. The home was comfortable and Arlene was gracious. We really enjoyed the breakfast at Yummies Bistro. We had a wonderful birthday celebration at Kohnami Japanese Restaurant. The chef Alex was wonderful to us and the birthday girl. I would recommend Arlene’s house to anyone.

Weekend Getaway

The owner was amazing. She was so friendly & helpful with all the things to do & great food places around. Although it's not right on beach, it's a nice walkfrom the house to the sand. I loved that our dogs were welcomed & hand a backyard to run around in.

Dated Property

I want to preface this by saying Arleen and her husband are very nice and attentive people. Apparently there is a limitation of 1500 characters! The owner lives next door and insist on giving you a tour of the house to show you what light switch does what. I'd prefer to be contactless and relax after the drive. The couches are very old and worn out... feels like you are sitting on springs. Arleen showed us blankets to put over the couches since we had our dogs during the tour. The kitchen utensils are worn out and cheap. Broken wooden handles on the knives, etc. Glasses that were removed from the cabinets were sticky. We hand washed everything before using it after that. We rented the place for the backyard. It was almost a foot tall and the shrubbery was overgrown. We, and our pups, were swarmed by mosquitos in the backyard. Arleen had it cut the following afternoon after we requested it, and had her husband bring over a fogger which helped. With the money that we spent to have that option, it should have been done prior to our arrival. The TV was very small and the dish network didn't work when we got there. The mattresses were also very worn and uncomfortable. We ended up leaving after two nights despite paying for three nights.

Escaping Reality With The Corillo

We had an awesome time and we enjoyed every minute of our visit! Recommendation: The housekeeping team should be on the same page as the owner; we as guests left the bathroom's cleanliness in better shape than they were turned in to us. It’s important to make sure that all is great before next guests arrive.

This house is amazing! Arlene was very helpful should you have any questions or concerns. Amazing back yard space for the dogs as well as sleeping arrangements for the furry friends. The house is located very conveniently and we were a walk away from anything we needed. Could not recommend enough and will definitely be booking again for our next SPI trip!

Our stay was right on track. The split level allowed for some privacy among the group. We were very happy with the pet friendly accommodations. Arlene was very receptive to our needs and issues. Great one on one communication. Would definitely book this property in the future.

Wonderful home, great location

The property was wonderful for our family vacation. Grandparents stayed in the downstairs apartment and were able to escape from the craziness of the family, lol. Yard was absolutely beautiful and our dogs thoroughly enjoyed it. Everything we needed to prepare meals was in the kitchen. Plenty of dishes, pots and pans, etc. Brand new charcoal grill, they even provided charcoal and lighter fluid. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels, beach toys and a little beach wagon. Owners are next door and available for any questions.

A group of friends and I have stayed here each October for three years in a row now. Great location, lots of room, the house is always clean, and the hosts are friendly and easy to work with. Add in the very fair prices and it’s everything you could ask for in a short term rental.

Great stay for a fun sweet 16

My daughter and friends absolutely loved their time at the house. They had the whole bottom level to themselves while the adults and the dogs were able to have the space upstairs. There was definitely plenty of room for a group of 10. It was an easy walk to the beach and the bayside was only a few steps away. I would definitely recommend this house.

Loved this Bay Side Place!!!!

The owners of the property are the BEST!! Communication was always open with the owner during our stay. She is from the area and even though I visit SPI every year she had some really good tips. I love that you have access to the garage. Most places lock them up. It made it very easy to load and unload for a day at the beach. It was almost like having two separate condos in one the way the layout is. The backyard is beautiful and secure for pets. I went back to work and told everyone about it.

What makes this property unique

Great location for kite boarders/wind surfers as you can launch from the end of the street, 200 yards down. Native plants attract migratory birds.
