Reviews

I would stay here again
4/5 stars
Most of the house was as expected. We were fully aware of lack of washer and dryer and was not an issue. The house fulfilled our need for the week and served us well. The deck had a broken rusty table on it. We contacted management and they replaced the table within a few hours. Plenty of parking and loved the convenience of the beach. Charcoal grill was available and ready for use and plenty of areas outside to hang swimwear and outdoor rinse off. My biggest two complaints were one the kitchen lacked appropriate pans for cooking, frying pan was rusted and unusable, had to make eggs in a sauce pan. Everything else in the kitchen worked very well. My second complaint is the spiders in the bedrooms, ants at the kitchen window and bugs in the bathroom. It was not a lot, but noticeable like ot just needed a current spraying like any house. We would stay here again if these two items were corrected.

Yes please!
5/5 stars
The barefootin' was the PERFECT sister getaway! The house was exactly what was promised, clean, roomy and the oceanfront views were amazing! Everyone had space to "be", and we had space to gather for meals, conversations, and card games. The host was incredibly attentive to our needs and made last-minute arrangements when an unforeseen issue arose. They made the whole process very smooth and stress-free! We will be back!
