House is as described, well maintained with excellent heated pool! Right on a beautiful beach. Excellent sunsets on the balcony. House felt bright and spacious. Loved how all bedrooms had a bathroom attached. Nice to have bikes to use, seems like a great neighborhood as well!
We absolutely loved this home! Itâs beautiful with views to die for! Being right on the ocean and having a pool was priceless when you have kids in tow. Will rent again!
Odessa was a perfect home for our family. 6 adults and 4 children under 8yo. The house is well decorated and very comfortable. The views of the beach and sunset were outstanding. The property manager was very quick to respond when we only needed small things (more propane for grill, etc,). The pool was a perfect spot for the children when the winds made the beach a little too cold for the little ones. The private beach is such a nice amenity as well. We would love to go back!
Overall the house is nice with great views and located close to everything you need. Unfortunately some of the below issues make it hard to visit again. Below are a few items we found not working or lacking with the house:
- BBQ grill does not work properly. The gas comes on but the flame is small and doesnât heat up the grill.
- the first level bathroom sink off the bedroom is almost completely stopped up.
- the dishwasher has missing or broken racks. You canât stack dishes for washing properly.
- the kitchen cookware is very lacking and for what is there had food stuck/burned on some of the pans.
- there arenât enough kitchen bowls and glasses.
- there are no small spoons. All are large table spoons.
- the tvâs and changers donât work properly. Plus there are no directions on how to use. It appears the only way to access stations is to stream various apps using your own user idâs and passwords.
- child alarm on doors out to pool did not work when we first arrived. That was corrected by property management.
On a positive note, 30a Escapes property management company was quick to respond on issues that were referred to them.
We were wowed by the home- very close to the beach with great views of the sunset, beautifully appointed with a heated pool that had a view of the ocean as well. The beds were very comfy and the bedrooms were quiet making for wonderful sleep. The top master didn't need 2 bathrooms, but who's complaining? All 3 masters had views of water since the home is on an isthmus with a lake right across the street. There were good spaces for puzzling, and a gorgeous spot on the covered large deck for meals big enough for 10 people. The kitchen had high-end appliances, plus there were extra icemakers. I must say that 30A Escapes came right away when we couldn't figure out the pool alarms on the doors. They helped us figure out the hurricane doors, too. We loved having the chairs set up without having to arrange it, and the company that did that set up a beach fire with s'mores- that was the highlight of our stay. We've stayed several places on 30A and this outdid them all. Enjoy!
The beach felt private! The house was beautiful! Wonderful vacation even with all the kiddos!
We did have to have handy man come put batteries into the door alarm to keep young kids safe with pool, but other than that it was perfect!
