8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
Everthing was fantastic, there were even a lot of extra things we could use at the beach in the pantry which was nice. I liked that I could wash a load of laundry and everything was spacious. There was a small deck upstairs and a nice deck in the backyard with chairs and an unbrella. This location is very close to the seawall which is a huge plus. My only concern was the air condition in the master bedroom, it was very hot even though it was on and adjusted to 61 which was the lowest it goes. It just was not blowing enough air, luckily the other 2 bedrooms and the rest of the house was very cold like we like it. I think that ac in that room needs to be looked at. It was a cute house and if that could be resloved we would definitely stay again.

Great property for being close to the Strand shopping and restaurants. The neighborhood is well lit and kept up, and the architecture is coastal and gorgeous. Lots of history in the area and tons to see. Great spot for a small family. Don't come when it's too hot!
