    For the price point the property needs to be transparent about the hazard associated with the laundry facilities under the house. It’s a tough space to navigate and with rat poison signage this should be disclosed prior to booking. I work in healthcare and a space where hantavirus might be a risk or if you have a compromised immune system this home is not safe.

    Lovely spot. Very clean and sweet. We didn't want to leave and extended our stay an extra day. Our dogs loved it, too!

    I really enjoyed the stay, my second time. One very strong concern is that the shutters in the kitchen made it very uncomfortable when trying to get to the fridge. I recommend that they be removed. … or get a fridge that opens out into the kitchen.

    We brought out dog and the proximity to the beach and ocean was perfect. The view from the little red house was amazing. It was a bitfunky but met all out needs. It was spotless and comfortable. We hope to go again!

    Loved it. The views were spectacular. Only wish there was a kitchen stool so to reach top shelving.

    The location was great but that's about all. We left a day early because we were so bothered by the low level of cleanliness. Prominent yellow stain on my bed pillow, leftover crusted food on the silverware, cobwebs in the cabinets where cooking supplies are stored, cobwebs in the shower, aunts EVERYWHERE. The aunts invaded the fridge and freezer space. That was my last straw it was so gross. I'm not normally the person to write reviews but I paid a fairly large amount for not even 48 hours and the conditions upon arrival for severely disappointing.

    We were very satisfied with our time at this property! The location, neighborhood, and proximity to the beach were all amazing. We had a very comfortable stay and everything was satisfactory and as advertised. We enjoyed being able to walk to the beach or sit out back and look out at the ocean with some shelter from the wind, views from the kitchen and dining area were very nice, and we were able to hear the waves crashing from our bedroom.
