The beds felt you were sleeping on a box spring. I messaged several times and called to try and find a new place to stay as I could not sleep there another night. I left a night early as I was getting the run around with the staff at Vacasa. I would not recommend to book with this company or property.

House was across the street from the ocean. Ocean views from patio. Great outdoor space for entertaining. Very comfortable.
Pros:
Proximity to ocean
Plenty of towels and beach towels
Outdoor patio with chairs, table and fire pit
Nice size kitchen and table
Comfortable beds
Great people watching on bike path in front of house
Cons:
Main bathroom tub doesn’t drain
Dirty windows/screens
Drawer that doesn’t close in the kitchen
Propane tank ran out in the fire pit
Washer and dryer in garage not hooked up - why is it in there then? Didn’t know there was working units elsewhere until the last day
Shower temperature not regulated
One bathroom had a dark shower and the other bathroom had a tiny sink
Broken closet door and blinds

Nice rental. Other than the couch the rental was very clean We personally felt the need to cover the sofa w/blankets and remove the toss pillows. (They need cleaning) Nicely appointed -except could use more dinner ware, we had to be sure to wash dishes every day as we don’t use paper/plastic. Also know that the laundry is shared w/upper unit- not private.

The location was great. We walked to the beach every day. Also could walk to store, pier, and several restaurants. True beach life. Also the place was super clean and good space.

The positive thing about this house is the location, it is very close to the beach. However when we arrived the house was not clean at all. There were stains on the toilet and when I washed my hands after cleaning it, there was hair all around the sink faucet.
There was a ring around the bathtub, I didn’t know if it was a stain but after cleaning it myself it was in fact a dirt ring and not a stain.
The couch was covered in crumbs, stains and dog hair.
There was a pile of crumbs and coffee grounds in the corner under the trash can in the kitchen.
There is not a washer and dryer in the unit. The description should say laundry room at no charge.
If this house was deep cleaned and the furniture was updated due to the stains it would make a huge difference.

We literally walked across the street to the beach! We ran out of propane I contacted management, and they brought us a new one within 10 minutes. It was perfect.

Loved:
- Location. You cannot beat the location, it is right behind beachfront property and you can hear the ocean waves from the home
- Patio seating. Wonderful place to enjoy your coffee and meals with a partial view of the ocean (note there are a ton of flies outside though. Saw that the neighbors had a fly fan on their patio table which would have been useful)
-Updated, well-equipped and clean kitchen
-Beach towels and chairs available for use
-Easy walk to grocery store and shops
Did not love so much:
-Loud, upstairs neighbors. You will hear every single footstep and every move they make, especially if they are partying late into the night (not everyone will comply with the noise regulations)
-Small space bathrooms in the ensuite bedrooms. We also had a rogue towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door, not sure if it was used or clean as it was not folded up like the rest of the clean towels
4.0
The location and proximity to the beach is unbeatable. However the house needs some serious tlc. The sofa and cushions inside need a deep clean, and the lack of working outlets was frustrating.

The house was great and had everything we needed. The only issue I had was the washer and dryer didn’t appear to be in working order so we could not use that. Great location and all the amenities. Very easy to work with management and there was no one bothering us. Really really comfortable beds and a giant patio that was great having a small dog and two teenage kids. Loved it and had a great week!

This was our second time renting this downstairs unit. We bring two dogs, so it is perfect for us. The place was nice and clean when we arrived and the proximity to the ocean and the pier is super convenient. We happened to run into the cleaning staff right as they were leaving and they were super friendly! If I have anything to nit-pic about it's super small stuff. The fan doesn't work in one of the bathrooms. They don't leave much bathroom tissue or paper towels or towels. Not sure what the norm is for six people staying for four days but it seems like they go light on that stuff. Other than that, the place is great. The patio is huge and the fire-pit worked great! We brought beach cruisers, so the one car garage is perfect to store six bikes. They also give you another parking spot as well. Another plus is all three bedrooms have their own bathroom and shower. We will definitely be back.

I grew up in Newport but moved away nearly 10 years ago. For my 40th we decided to rent a house and visit old friends and introduce some new ones to the area. The parking has always been bad in Newport but has seemed to have gotten worse. If you have more than 2 vehicles plan on hunting for parking (took some 45min) or parking aways away. Also the garage will fit a compact car but not much else. We were able to squeeze a Prius in reference.
The house is in a great location but generally speaking is not as nice as the pictures. The TV’s are mounted crooked and everything is a little smaller then expected. The downstairs patio is amazing but the windows were filthy from the last tenant’s kids (easy fix). Ultimately, we’d rent the house again as we love the area and openness of the patio. I’d definitely suggest bring bikes as the board walk is just a few blocks away and you can ride to the pier to eat, drink or shop.

We loved the location of the unit and the large patio. Right on the corner and great for people watching. Clean but can use some tlc. Simple things like new patio cushions, mattresses, etc.

Location and home design were perfect for a fun family weekend. The oversized outdoor patio is an awesome extension to the home. Easy check-in and out were a bonus!

Our experience with working with VACASA rentals soured the actual trip itself before we even had the trip. MAKE SURE ALL OF YOUR PARTY can meet the dates for your trip. This trip was initially to taking an ailing family member to visit the beach. She had not been for years and we thought it might be a lifting spirits experience for her. It didn't work out for her to make it so we decided to cancel. She was the whole purpose of the trip. So apparently this location we were told from VACASA was a time share. That on top of VACASA'S 30 day cancellation policy . The time share owners ALSO have a 30 day cancellation. We were six days passed their policy deadline of 60 DAYS and gave no grace. It took a whole week to get back to me when we first put the request in to cancel. Then when asked if they could please go back to the time share owners and ask politely again if we could have a little leeway. They got back to us in less then 45 minutes and said they said no. For as long as it took them the first time we figured they never even asked when we requested again. Also, you can never get the same person on the phone. They don't give ext. #'s out and it's always someone new your speaking with, you can never get a MANAGER on the phone either .I don't know how many times I asked to speak to a manager and I was told there was no one available. Some of these people ruder then others. In the last rude email response back they stated to go ahead and give them the last 4 digits of my credit card for me to pay the rest in full and that they would go ahead and cancel our reservation for us . They were more then happy to charge us, and rent it out again. We looked up to see if there were similar properties out there to rent and everything with the same criterias out there were booked up. They wouldn't of had an issue rebooking that, they just didn't want to .
We reluctantly went with an already bad taste in our mouth from our experience with their customer service. The houses pictures on the website makes it look a little more pristine then it was. It was very stuffy in the house even with all the windows open.There was no a/c but they did have ample fans available. Unfortunately a lot of the outlets were not working to use the fans. The fridge inside was dirty. All in all though the house was ok . We will never stay here again unfortunately since it was through VACASA that we rented it from . We won't rent through the VACASA rental again.

We paid a premium price with the understanding that we were getting a premium property. Sadly that wasn't the case. It was not very clean. We found dirty cleaning rags in the sink. Dirty towels left on the washing machine. We didn't have sufficient clean towels for our stay. To top it off the washing machine was broken. We requested repeatedly for help, but it was never repaired. I had to take time to use the laundry mat. Very inconvenient with five children. The side yard had 4 garbage cans overflowing with garbage and 8 bags on the ground leaving sticky and gross who knows what. Flies and maggots were all over. My husband and I dragged it all to the street on trash day. The neighbors were kind enough allow us to use their cans for the extra garbage bags. I then sprayed it all off with the hose. The beds are not comfortable. My son had spring marks on his body every morning. The furniture and curtains were filthy. The fridge was not cleaned and there was liquid and smelly mold at the bottom of the garbage in the kitchen.
On a positive note, it is a great location and the patio was nice with the fire pit to hang out and visit. However, it's not enough to want to stay or use this property management again. Many things need to be addressed. Especially when your paying a premium price.

This property and location was the most perfect spot to enjoy a home just steps from beach, especially if you have kids and have to cart all their stuff to the beach, very easy. House was so big and clean, fans are provided since there's no a/c but very comfortable. People watching from patio was the best, walking distance to rent beach cruisers, and shopping, food, groceries all just minutes away. Other than the front door code not working for 45 min, the visit was perfect. But the property mgr finally figured it out and gave me the new code. overall 5 star stay.

Fun Beach House
This beach house was perfect for our family. You can tell it is a rental that gets many uses(scuffs, missing glassware, ripped and mismatched patio furniture), but it was very clean upon our arrival. The location is ideal for days spent at the beach. We were able to walk to the grocery store and nearby shops and restaurants. We especially loved the fire pit on the patio. One downside is if people are renting the unit above you, you can easily hear their footsteps. We did run out of the propane that was in the fire pit and the three extra were all empty. So we had to go to the store to buy more in order to use the bbq. The BBQ was a bit tricky to figure out and took a bit to make sure all the connections were tight and the flow of propane was working but it ended up working. Overall it was a great place and we would stay here again. You can't beat the location!

The stay was good - areas was fun with lots of action. The check in process was easy and no issues - inside the place was clean, however the patio was dirty with and trash was found, beer cans, etc. -if we did it again we would stay on top level because there was a family with 7 little kids running back and forth and that was a little difficult - that was the only issue (noise) from above.
