Loved that the decore was very retro 70’s Califronia beach style. Had all we needed and for a small house it was spacious with the enclosed car port. So close to beach too! Made me want to buy the property. Only wishing.

Location mngr changed the code and forgot to forward me the right door code. They sent a maintenance person to assist us; which took almost two hrs!!! Our check in to the location was 2 hrs later. The house is old and smells old. The appliances are very outdated. Dishes also too old . Everything was very dusty. Dishes seemed like they hadn’t been wash in a good while. AC in front living room was not cooling enough. I kept trying to communicate through app and no one ever responded my messages & there was no listing of the locations manager or the phone number. Worst stay ever! Never renting this location again!!!!! You all need to refund us back our money for all the inconveniences!!!!

The house was very clean and we felt safe. Never had any issues or major concerns during our visit. Would definitely stay here again. Very close proximity to the beach and very convenient having CVS right nearby. Also several restaurants within walking distance. Daddy’s Cajun Kitchen was a favorite dinner location and it’s only one block away.

The Location was excellent close to the beach n main street but the house smelled really bad like an a toque store, we lit candles daily to kill the smell, we ran into roaches daily in the kitchen, the air conditioning system was very dusty and the appliances were extremely old, I think some upgrades would be nice n deep cleaning would be a plus, I can’t say it was my favorite vacation.

Super cute older home, looks like the owners just left. Fully stocked kitchen, clean, and very comfortable. Great location in the middle of the island easy to get to everything. Our only negative comment is landscaping, The yard had not been mowed when we arrived, grass was high and full of stickers. Mowers came late in the week, leaving all the lawn shavings all over the sidewalks including the stickers. That being said, we definitely would recommend the house and would stay again.

Fantastic experience. Perfect layout for my family. Loved the location and amenities like the rooftop deck to watch the incredible sunsets and fireworks. Would suggest replacing all the lightbulbs and batteries throughout and maybe an exterminator for the smaller bugs here and there. Overall a fantastic stay, and would definitely book again!
