Great house!
Beautiful home on a gorgeous beach! Plenty of space in the house and on the patio. We all had a great time! The house came with 6 beach chairs and 3 umbrellas, which was very helpful! The house is near a hotel that provided drink/snack service on the beach, which was nice to be able to order tasty treats without leaving the beautiful beach. We were not impressed with the hospitality of the rental agency. Upon arrival, we had to call the agency, due to the codes not working to get into the house. We called a few minutes later when we noticed the two large trash cans were overflowing with trash. Then, we had to call again when the WiFi wasn’t working. The WiFi didn’t start working until the next morning. There were basic household items we had to order and have delivered, such as laundry soap, dishwasher soap, paper towels, trash bags, and beach towels. While we were there, one of the windows blew out and we called the rental agency immediately. They did send someone out to fix it, but hot air was still coming in and that bathroom was extremely hot the entire time. Overall—the house location and size was perfect and we had a great time. We overlooked the lack of basic supplies, but figured we should let others know so they can plan to either bring those items or add them to the grocery list.

Excellent location!
It was a wonderful stay in a wonderful location in a beautiful house. Only problem I had was after check out I got an email stating that I was charged $545 for a pool setting being switched to spa mode that put our pool at 104 degrees. We wasn’t even aware that a setting existed so when they told me this I emailed and explained. It didn’t help I was still charged even though we don’t know how it got switched and it was confirmed that the setting was not on spa mode when we checked in on Monday. I was supposed to be credited $200 since it was confirmed Monday and Tuesday was not in spa mode, but that hasn’t happened yet.

Amazing view
This VRBO was exactly what we were looking for. The view was amazing, we had plenty of room for our family to hang out and relax and loved that we could walk right to the beach from the house. We also walked to restaurants, it was very convenient!!
