Almost great
The neighborhood, location, and rental process were 10/10. The beach chairs/umbrella set up was AMAZING. The house is good but needs a lot of TLC- porch doors were very hard to open and close and despite some interesting instructions on how to lock the front door, we could not figure it out. The back door to the beach still hasn’t been fixed and can only be locked by a chain at the top of the door. Deck furniture was broken. Kitchen cabinets are off their hinges and the oven is very hard to open and use. The house is plenty big enough and great for entertaining, with some much needed updates it would be perfect for the price. We had several other families renting homes on the same street and they paid quite a bit less, and their homes were updated, cleaner and in better condition. We love this area and neighborhood- it wasn’t our first rental here and it won’t be our last.

Perfect location
This house is perfect for groups with kids. You're directly on the most beautiful beach in a very safe and quiet neighborhood, so it truly doesn't get much better. If being on the beach all day is your idea of a perfect vacation, just bring food and drink, and don't plan on having to leave at all.
