Great house and great location to beach. Loved the pool and time bar! This was our 4th year staying here and looking forward to our 5th!

2-3 minutes to walk to beach.

The house is definitely in need of some good loving. A deep clean, kitchen reno, and deck rebuild would make this a significant upgrade/investment opportunity to justify the cost. The house is just what we needed. Easy to maneuver with 3 levels of steps inside and outside. Sound proof with the kids on the main floor (loud, video games, pool, pool table, and a mini kitchenette) to not bug/bother the adults in the rest of the house. It’s an older home that leaves a lot to be desired. It is generally clean, I did my own cleaning before the crew arrived because there were piles of dust/sand that the housecleaning staff missed and I like things to be sterile before I feel comfortable. The furniture layout and amount of chairs/couches/stools/etc was exactly as expected. The basketball hoop was broken when we arrived. The customer service team was quick to say they reported it but no one showed up to fix it. At any point during our stay. When we arrived, a gentleman drove up as we unpacked and asked if we checked in already. I advised I received the text notification that the house was ready and the code was activated. He looked at the pool, noted the sandy bottom and said someone would be out asap to clean. No one showed up until the following Wednesday. The pool guy added chemicals, emptied the trap/filter for the pool and set up the hose to add water. Never cleaned up the sand. Only knew he was there because he had ear buds in and didn’t see/hear us leaving as he was setting up. We must have scared him. The house is a good hike from the beach BUT you can drive down, drop your stuff off by the entrance of the beach or use the cart provided at the house to carry your stuff, and then repack the car, walk back. I’d list myself as a fully functional body that can walk a mile without getting winded… the walk from the house to the beach was 5 city blocks. Not bad, flat, no hills, and easy to figure out how to get to the beach. For all intents and purposes, this house worked great for a multi generational family that had a varying degree of needs. It was in a great proximity to shops, restaurants, Harris Teeter and Food Lion, the sound and beach. I’d stay here again but I wouldn’t be as reluctant to pay peak pricing for what we received. My suggestion is to lower the weekly prices by at least $500, suggest $1500, unless serious improvements will occur.
