Electrical work needed !
Upon arrival on October 5, 2024 we noticed several pubic hairs all over the sheets. The two twin beds in the alcoves were also not clean. We contacted manager and cleaning crew was sent immediately the situation was corrected above satisfaction. We then noticed broken. outlet covers reported to management we noticed electric in back. Part of main bedroom did not work. We reported to management management did their best to fix this issue. However, upon check out today October 12, 2024. The electrical issues were not rectified and electrician was scheduled after our check out to work on the home, which probably makes more sense, these were small issues that would never stop me from renting here again it was a very nice neighborhood not as quiet as we would have light, but not as loud as being straight up on the strip, I would recommend this for a family with older children, but definitely not younger children as the stairs have no safety Gate and the broken wall cover would electrocute a baby if they were to stick their finger in it

This was an ok place-you get what you pay for. It wasn’t bad until they rented the downstairs to a bunch of kids that played the music loud and sounded like a bunch of alley cats trying to sing and laugh. There was several vehicles and they took the parking for both rentals and we ended up with a parking ticket. I won’t stay at these locations again if we ever have to go back.

Good for group trip, could use improvements
Best part about this place is the location, less than a 5 minute walk from the beach. Other than that, there were some inconvenient aspects of the house- appliances and furniture all seemed a little bit "off" or broken, shower rod not secured and fell off, electricity didn't work for various switches and outlets. The biggest annoyance was that the property manager scheduled roofing repairs during our stay, so we woke up to roofing work being done at 6am. Not sure why these repairs weren't schedule for before or after our stay. We tried our best to steer clear of the tools/watch out for fallen nails, and still my nephew ended up stepping on a nail in the backyard. We got lucky that his shoe stopped the nail from going in his foot. Again, I'm not sure why these repairs were not done at another time. Management should consider guests when scheduling house work.

Working class getaway.
Upstairs/downstairs duplex, 2.5 blocks from beach. Nice grassy backyard with hose for rinsing off. Nice kitchen appliances and comfortable beds. AC works good. Bathroom could use an overhaul. Door keypad needs instructions included in check in email.

A quaint spot for the family. Loved the walking distance to the beach and the backyard for our children to play in.
