Sep 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Location was great, the beach was great, the house was very nice and clean. We loved having two outdoor spaces, one covered in the other not The kitchen was very well stocked, however, if you. like to cook, be sure to bring everything, even salt and pepper. There are a lot of details that made it stand out even from the hose on the way out the stairs to the icemaker. Highly recommend. ##### Jennifer W.

First thing when we got there the house was not lock. The air was working correctly west side of the house. WiFi was down for a day. Screen door in one bedroom does not work. In the living room you use piece of wood to lock the sliding glass door , the tracks in all of the sliding glass door we’re discussing. The bathroom corner needed to be cleaned. Also there was no toaster.. ##### Stacey M.
