The host was absolutely one of the best I've worked with. The house was just as described. They were able to accommodate all our needs. Would highly recommend.

Good stuff: Place was clean and decently furnished for cookware.Great beach access. Easy to get to. Other Stuff:Place is a stair maze. Lots and lots of stairs. Good for a workout. Not good to lug stuff around.

I stayed here with my daughter and my two grandkids ages 4yrs and 20 months. The location is beautiful and private. The house was spacious, accommodating plenty of sleep and play areas. The kitchen had plenty of cooking and serving utensils but you need to bring basics like sugar and condiments. The water has a very heavy sulphur (?) smell and we ended up bringing in bottled water. There were lots of puzzles and games available for the kids which was great. The bathrooms had plenty of towels, TP, soap, shampoo, conditioner, and a hair dryer. The view was beautiful with the ocean and wildlife out the back window. A large yard was great for the kids to run around in. While the lawn had been tended to, other areas of the outside of the house were in poor shape and hadn't been cleaned or repaired. It should be mentioned there are 2 flights of steep stairs to get to the main part of the house from the outside. One of the handrails rotted away from the main rail. Areas of the balcony felt sketchy. You can enter through the garage with less stairs leading into the lower level which was nice but the garage was dirty. There were mousetraps noticed and my daughter could hear things scurrying inside the walls in the downstairs bedrooms. We did have a wonderful stay, easy check-in and check-out, though the property is a bit rundown.

Downstairs entry from garage has that 70’s entry smell, not entirely unpleasant but it clues the visitor the home is aged. Beautiful view from upstairs living room windows! Pipes are in serious need of replacement as the toilet water was yellow and brushing my teeth was a horrid experience as the taste of rust is very evident. In fact you can smell it when the water is running but I showered in it anyways. They ask that you strip the beds, no issue with that but they also ask that you start a load of towels washing prior to leaving, no problem with that either… however there was no laundry soap available. That fact lead to thoughts of “ was I using towels and linens not cleaned with soap?” I feel they could have provided a few soap pods if they require you start the cleaning process for them. Despite those minor issues, we all had a good time. It was quiet and comfortable despite needing a bit of TLC. As an aside.. a journal for guests to log into would be a nice addition. I would’ve enjoyed reading who visited and where they came from.
