Beautiful view
Beautiful location, home needs updating. The house needs painted and repairs to many areas. The kitchen could use some updated appliances like pans,scissors,casserole dishes. We had to go buy several items just to cook. The drains in the bathrooms were clogged, needs maintenance. The windows were stunning but unfortunately we had to go buy window cleaner as they were awful dirty. You could see cleaner sprayed and just dripping down them where the cleaner didn’t even wipe it. Many areas weren’t cleaned well. The washing machine is terribly moldy, black mold. It smelled up the whole garage and into house. We really loved the house and location, we just really thought you needed to know what needs taken care of to make this home worth that price.

Birthday Weekend at the Beach
Great location. It was quiet and peaceful. Loved the views of the ocean from the family room; dining/ kitchen area; and second floor balcony. The space has plenty of room and there is ample parking for four vehicles. The property manager was very responsive when we called about loss of WiFi in the house and a minor maintenance issue. However, the space needs a deep cleaning. Kitchen cabinets and stairway handrails are sticky and need to be cleaned. The main level common bathroom shower had sand and hair in the drain. Linens need to be replaced. Towels are faded; threadbare; and do not match. Mattresses are extremely uncomfortable and worn to the point of providing minimal back support. The kitchen was missing basic cookware; inadequately equipped; and definitely not a gourmet kitchen as advertised. There were no baking sheets or baking pans. There were only two large skillets meaning there were no small or medium sized skillets. There was only a single measuring cup. The dining table was ample for eight people; but there were only five dining chairs. None of the light switches were marked making it not so easy to light up the rooms. A house manual would be helpful to explain how to use the facility. Access to the beach is about a five minute walk down a gravel road. You pass two houses under construction and two finished homes. We enjoyed our stay - lovely ocean views-easy beach access. The house is spacious. It needs to be updated and deep cleaned

Great house on the beach
The house is great. Very spacious, on the beach. There were a few things that need to be replaced such as the coffee pot lid, The faucet handle in the main floor shower it is stripped, the family room couch is dirty, it need to be cleaned or replaced. But overall it was a great place to stay. Lots of towels, lots space and sleeps more than I expected. Beautiful view, close access to town. I would stay here again.

Disappointed
The property manager was excellent!! The house was dirty,the BBQ was filthy. We spent over 2 hrs cleaning floors and under furniture. Cob webs in several areas. Curtains have not been cleaned I would say since they got hung. Stains on all of the bedroom doors. Holes in carpet going up stairs.The couch in the main living room is filthy. The heater in the master didn't work,they did bring small space heater but we could not use as we had an infant and it was hot to touch. The bedding smelled and the towels so we had to wash them before we could use them. The microwave works but was broken. The jets in the spa don't all work but was still very nice to sit in under the stars and was clean.The access to the beach is not user friendly. Main lights in kitchen don't work or in stair case. There is no cell service so you have to be on WiFi. For larger groups not enough towels for showering. The outside chairs are older and rusty so I suggest bringing some if possible. There is a high chair and we disinfected and cleaned the cob webs off so its ready for the next little one. The screen on the balcony door is broken and our little one cut his finger. This needs replaced.Overall nice house just needs updated and a deep clean and landscaping cleaned up around it along with LARGE pot holes in driveway.The views are breath taking! The property management was wonderful and very friendly.

Maybe
The location is great and it has a number of beds to accommodate our larger group. However there were multiple things broken, weird messages written by past guests that had not been removed, the upstairs shower leaks as much water as comes out of the shower head, there are no towel racks (?!), the place was kinda clean if you just glanced at the surface but we had a bed that appeared made but was dirty with sand in between the sheets and all of the dishes were pretty dirty and gross and stained/dirty walls/doors. I stayed in this place 9 years ago and it was a bit nicer, it has taken a beating and hasn’t been well cared for unfortunately.

Could have been a lot cleaner.
We just spent Labor Day weekend here and won't be staying here again. There were 7 of us and there was plenty of room for us to spread out. This is an older home and there were also a number of things that need taken care of at the house. First thing a good cleaning. The house was very dusty, the sheets had stains and the furniture in one room looked like it hadn't been cleaned in years, (we didn't use that room). We did stay and had a great time with our family but won't be staying here again.

Very Private
This home is wonderful. It is private on three sides, with bushes and trees blocking anyone looking over. The beach side seems private also because of the 20 foot bluff. The view is so beautiful. The kitchen and dining area is separate from the bedrooms. I stayed in the bedroom closest to the kitchen. You couldn't hear people talking unless someone was very loud. I highly recommend this place.

Private home with spectacular view
The best part about this home is the location. It’s private with no neighbors on either side with a spectacular view right on the ocean. There is a bluff drop off which could be a concern for little ones. The home could use some TLC but there was nothing that prevented us from thoroughly enjoying ourselves. If I was going to suggest one thing I would ask the owners to replace the blue folding chairs. So… bring your own chairs for sitting outside and you should be all set.

Funky place. Great location.
This is a very funky place. Lots of little things annoyed us such as no hooks for towels upstairs. Few towels and washcloths. Lightbulbs out. No lamps (so we couldn’t read to the kids). Cliff at end of property made it kind of scary! Had to use steps to beach at motel next door (which says no trespassing!) But loved the fire pit for s’mores, the hot tub, the lawn for playing on and the kitchen! We had a great time despite the above.

Large house, great views!
The house was easy to find, easy access for elderly as there's all one level from drive way to front door and inside the house! 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms on bottom floor was great for our big family vacation. Upstairs was nice huge kids room with 2 tw boat beds (mattress were hard) and 2 full beds all in one room! The master bdrm with deck was so nice to have fresh air ocean sounds! But no fans it was so hot Upstairs even though it was 60degrees outside! There really needs to be one central book of all the info for this house we searched for things, switches, remotes ect... also there was suppose to be bbq, there wasn't! We bought table top charcoal one & left it for the next family since it wouldn't fit in our car! Also could use ALL WALLS & DOOR WASHED. I scrubbed down what the kids would touch, but the house is older, worn in a bit, but over all was a good house for the price and location!

cleanliness and communication
Great location, the property is old and in need of maintenance. All the walls need a thorough cleaning. several light bulbs need changing. EXterior lights near the lock box were non existent making it difficult to see at night in the driving rainstorm. The parking area street light barely comes on. Timely communication from ocean odysey is a joke. We could not find the code to the lock box and spent several hours driving up to cell phone range to try to contact them We found the code and eventually entered the house. We were contacted the next day by management to see if we accessed the house.ocean Odysey said they would reimburse for the night but i do not expect to see that.

Ick! We felt dirty the whole trip!
Wish I would of read the reviews before booking. First driving in you’ll need a 4x4 big pot holes Pictures of house must have been years ago as it appears well maintained. Peter was the only positive part he was quick to reply and helpful. The home is very dirty and needs paint and many repairs. Every drawer is filled with junk and broken things. I don’t think the drapes have been cleaned since being hung! The furniture is old and broken down including mattresses and couches. Under all furniture layers of dust. Murphy bed in room we lifted and cleaned under as the floors were so bad! Kitchen looks nice but dishwasher doesn’t have a seal on bottom so water all over floor. Cabinets are sticky and dirty. Pans are old and bent. Mouse poop in game cupboard. Not much good to say! View is beautiful but hard to see through dirty windows. We would not stay here again or recommend it!

Great home, needs a little attention
This property could easily be the best rental home if it was maintained better and had a deep cleaning. Pros: great ocean view, very nice home and yard, homey atmosphere. Cons: kitchen ill-equipped for family cooking and not to the standards of other rental homes at this price-pount. Few extra towels or blankets were available. No information on how to operate electronics was available. Needs a deep clean. Minimal communications with management company— felt very ignored when trying to extend the stay or seek early entry to property.

Good location.
The property is in a great location. In the middle of all the things we wanted to do. The views and proximity to the water was awesome. The access to the water is extremely limited. We were able to access it but really had to work for it. The accommodations were ok, fresh bedding, towels, countertops and all, but the couches had sand all over them. Some of the dishes needed to be washed before we could use them. Overall the experience was ok, for the price I would probably look elsewhere next time.

Annual Mother and daughters trip
Great location! We loved the privacy and the ocean views. The house is very large with lots of room to spread out, great place for a large family. The cleanliness was less than desirable. The bathrooms and kitchen were clean and we had no issues with those rooms but the rest of the house was literally covered in cobwebs. I would venture a guess that the house hasn't had a thorough cleaning from ceiling to floors in at least a year. I'm curious as to why the property management hasn't taken action on all of the negative comments about the cleanliness?
