The property and location were just right. Great house. Had everything we needed. Clean and bed were comfortable. The property owner was easy to reach and answered questions promptly. Any issues were dealt with quickly and professionally.
My team stayed at this home as we completed some maintenance tasks such as washing machine replacement, dryer servicing, and track lighting fixture replacement. The place was clean and beds were very comfortable. Enjoyed sitting on the deck overlooking the ocean, watching the sunset, while cracking a cold one.
We stayed here in the off-season, in April and really a great location. Most of the property is in excellent condition. The only issue we had was Faucet in kitchen was really loose, didn’t get hot water through until last day and bathrooms could use a refresh or update. Also, 1/2 of the chairs for dining table were unusable. Besides that, plenty of space in the living room to hang out with family, play games, watch the sunset. Would be absolutely stunning in the summer, view was spectacular. Really should be five star, but the bathroom and the problem with the kitchen faucet made me make it a 4, would have done 4 1/2 if I could.
This property is perfect for a large group--it's very roomy and well-equipped. The neighborhood is quiet, but within walking distance to the beach and boardwalk. Clean and as advertised. We gathered here with family for our daughter's USCGA graduation week and it was everything we needed for the group.
Our crew of 4 had a pool resurfacing job in Waterford. This home exceeded all of our needs and more. Was a great location to come back to after long days of laboring. Very clean and spacious. Had plenty of cooking items and new fresh linens included. Balcony has awesome view of the ocean, especially in morning. Gigantic flat screen to watch the NBA playoffs in living room! Recommend this property!
We enjoyed this spot. It is very close to Ocean Beach State Park and not too far from other amenities located in downtown.
Everything was perfect
We took the house to reconnect with our daughter & S-I-L, after not seeing them for 14 months due to COVID - and it was perfect. Very clean and uncluttered - big open living/dining/kitchen space with sliding doors to sun-drenched deck - incredible view of LI Sound, beach and boardwalk just across the street. And, with 4BR - plenty of room to WFH. The house was well-appointed, and there were ample soaps, cleansers, and paper products to keep it clean & neat all week. (We've been to other properties where there was nary a napkin to be had, let alone dish & laundry detergent!)Although we didn't need, there were extra linens & towels available, along with a compliment of beach chairs & towels (alas, in April it barely tipped 55 degrees, so no picnics on the beach - but blissfully quiet and peaceful).Utopia was very thorough with requisite instructions and responsive to the few questions that arose through the week.We had a great time.
Easy process . Exactly as listed this property enjoyed by all. Great for low season rental, beach would be too crowed on weekends and summer .
Awesome property conveniently located for all Grad Week Activities! Highly recommend booking early for 2022 Grad week! Spacious, comfortable gorgeous view in a quiet neighborhood! Made this special week an outstanding experience! Thanks
We had a great stay at this beautiful home. It exceeded our expectations. The home is awesome. Plenty of room and very clean. The location was great. We spent time walking the beach and enjoying the view from the deck. We will be back!
I travel around the CT area in the winter for work doing home renovations. Our team had stayed at the hose which was huge. Two giant TV's in the living room with large couches and another TV downstairs in a bedroom. The home had plenty of soaps, shampoo/conditioner and body wash. Didn't need to bring our own. Was very well stocked with towels and extra linens (but we didn't need to change the sheets). The kitchen was full of new pots/pans, baking items, and utensils which was great for cooking our meals. House was very spacious and the hosts were very responsive. Thank you Utopia for your hospitality. There is nothing like waking up to the sunrise overlooking the Ocean. We also tried Ocean Pizza Restaurant down the road, and they have the best shrimp scampi platter that is enough for leftovers the next day. 5 STAR PROPERTY AND HOSPITALITY!
Kitchen and living room area great for a large family get together. View of the ocean from the balcony was very relaxing. Very short walk to beach. I would consider renting again, maybe next time the washing machine can be moved to garage next to dryer.
