Small property relative to guest capacity listed in advertising. No closets. Very small bathrooms. One bedroom TV not working. Listed as "steps from beach" - in reality a five-minute walk to rock/boulder shoreline - not a sandy beach. Island water is not drinkable. Need a water purifying system at least for drinking water.We had a GREAT vacation!!

Great beach getaway

We stayed here while working on settling our father's estate. It is a great place for gathering together and sharing stories on the sectional sofa or sitting on the deck enjoying the salt air. The house has plenty of room to gather together or to have a little privacy in the super comfortable bedrooms. This was our second stay here and we hope to be able to come back again.

I cannot say enough about how great the property was, its location, cleanliness, etc. And the host was perfect in communicating with me. I had a few questions prior to the trip and he always responded within 5-10 minutes. Above and beyond expectations. Was extra pleased with coffee being provided, washer/dryer, and dishwasher.

Great home for a quick getaway

The home was easy to book. The property manager kept in contact with us. The home was great and a short drive from the public beach entrance. The area was peaceful at night. We had a large group including small children and we all fit in the home without it feeling overcrowded. It was great!

Upon arrival there was three half full trash cans blocking the driveway to where I had to park on the road and move them just to access the property. Opened the front door and was overtaken by the smell of cigarette smoke and the bar top felt gritty like it was not cleaned. The back rooms bedding smelt like someone was smoking in the bed and the bedding was not washed. We had to get Febreze and a candle just to combat the smoke smell. The front door knob also broke but I was able to get it back on. I did reach out and got a response back pretty quick but all they wanted to do is send the cleaning service again which by that point we had already remediated the problems. The house is really nice and in a great location if you don't mind the smell of smoke or dirty countertops.

Good place

Overall the stay was good. When we got there we immediately noticed dirt (toothpicks and food crumbs ) on the carpet and cheese on the floor in the kitchen. There was no vacuum for the carpet so we made due. At night we pulled the beds down and the sheets in two rooms had hair and dirt on them….. to the point we washed them before turning in…… all the shower and sinks were covered in soap scum. The washer worked well but needs a deep clean as there is built up dirt and soap scum all around. I recommend staying there, as I notified the host and they offered to send the cleaning crew back to touch up. We declined as we had already cleaned everything. It is a nice place…. Just needs cleaned better in between guest. We had a good time! Great for family get togethers. Thank you!

Has that new house feel!

While we were speaking to the owner, they mentioned that this home was newly built this year, and it shows! It was beautiful on the inside and all the furniture was so comfortable! (We even asked the owner what beds they use so we can get them for our next one) We especially enjoyed the outdoor deck and patio areas that all of us could sit on while enjoying our meals.

Family Beach Getaway

the overall checkin process was quick and easy; the house on the other hand had some issues especially the water that smelled like sewer water; the owner said surfside water is usually cloudy, which i was already aware of since this isn’t my first time here. the smell of the water was ridiculous & we had to buy gallons of water to use to shower because the water had the worst stench. Otherwise, the house was close to the beach which made things easier for us especially with a baby. I doubt my family would want to come back to this specific house just due to the water sanitary issues and the owners were not taking it seriously.

Fine place but not very clean

Overall it's a lovely home, nicely decorated with comfortable beds. Unfortunately, it was grimy and one of our beds had stained pillow cases and crumbs in the bed. The toilets weren't well cleaned and the floors hadn't been mopped. There was no hand soap or laundry soap so we couldn't use the bed with the dirty sheets. The property manager was fairly quick in responding, and the housekeeper dropped off what we needed within a few hours of requesting. The housekeeper just dropped off a set of sheets when requested instead of actually changing the sheets. And as others have noted, the water is really gross. Has a sulphur smell and salty taste. The fridge filter does nothing for the taste or smell. We had to buy gallons of water during our stay. We wouldn't stay here again, but overall it was ok for the weekend, just felt gross in places. Note that the check in instructions are sent one hour before check-in time, there is no house booklet online or in the house, and there were no check out instructions.
