I just stayed at this home the week of June 26th. I've rented several houses with my family over the years and this was, BY FAR, the best experience I have had. I can truly say that the pictures posted don't do the house or view justice. Sitting at the dining room table, I had a great view of the ocean every single day. The elevator was wonderful and my 93 year old grandfather had no problems at all with it. I also was traveling with my 18 month old son. The elevator was completely safe for my son. He tried several times to open the door to the elevator, but couldn't if it wasn't there. I found the elevator to be completely safe and was wonderful to have.
There are hardwood floors throughout the house, but when we entered there was not one spec of sand or dust anywhere. The whole house feels and looks like everything is brand new. Also not mentioned is that there is an outdoor shower. Every day when we returned from the beach we used it and it was wonderful just to 'sand down.' The lane that you walk down to get to the beach from the house is also much shorter than it looks in the picture. My grandfather didn't even use his wheelchair to get there. Also, like other beaches, it's not a long long walk to the ocean across the sand, which was great. Moving to the inside: In other rental houses it's really been bare inside with no great amenities or decor. This home has wonderful decor - vases / fish statues (great!) / pictures that really make you feel you are at home. The furniture is also not 'leftover' from someone's house that they've overused. It's gorgeous and high quality and again makes you feel like you are at home. There is also a large tub with jets in the master bedroom, 2 more full baths, and 1 additional half bath (all in addition to the outdoor shower). The top sky deck you see in the picture has SUCH a wonderful view. There are even lounge chairs up there! The owner even left us with tissues & complimentary coffee in his Keurig to have every morning. These little touches and MUCH MORE (lest of which includes beach chairs --how amazing not to have to fit your own in the car!) made it such a wonderful vacation. I can't even mention all of the great wonderful extras left for us there were so many. I implore you to rent this home, you won't regret it. I've left my number with the owner should anyone want to contact me for a personal review.
