The house was in a very convenient, walkable area, very close to the beach. The house sleeps a lot of people. It could use some updating. Needs drywall repairs in the bathroom and smells a bit musty. Cookware and utensiles are very poor qualilty. It's not a kitchen for someone who actually cooks. There were no casserole dishes, very cheap flimsy or broken cookware - like broken plastic measing cups, torn spatula, poor quality cookware and blender didn't work well. The chairs are all metal or hard plastic, so not comfortable if sitting for long periods like when working remotely. The pool and hot tub were awesome. We paid extra to have them heated while we were there in the winter and definitley worth it. There is no back door to access the back of the house. It would be nice if they could extend the front deck a few feet and add stairs to access the back yard. Since there is no back door you have to walk from the hot tub/pool to the front of the house at the street to go back inside. I love that it was dog friendly. However, it was a bit of a hassle not being able to easily let the dog out into the back yard since there is no back door. A dog must be put on a leash and walked out the front door at the street and around to the backyard. Not a huge deal, but renters with dogs should be aware of this. The owners were excellent. They were extremely responsive. Any issues or questions we had were immediately addressed.
House is only1/2 block from the beach. Very safe neighborhood.
