Great home for 4 generation reunion
We had 10 people ages 2-84 stay at Life’s Too Shore for a beach week reunion. The home was perfect for us with separate bathrooms for each bedroom, two sitting areas, an elevator and a pool. Great view over the top of the houses across the street on the oceanfront. Elevator made it easy for the 80+ year old and the toddlers to navigate from ground level to the 3rd floor. The small pool was great for the kids and the public beach access was less than a block walk/golf cart ride. The kitchen is well-equipped, although there was no Keurig, despite one shown in the photos. Nice grill on the ground floor as well. Highly recommend!

Christmas Vacation 2023
We stayed here with 8 family members all 20+ years old. The house was lovely for the price with all of us having our own bedrooms and full bathrooms. One family member is disabled so the working elevator was a must and it had very few issues. Make sure to read the elevator guidelines as you can easily have user errors. The property had a few issues with bugs but the property manager and maintenance were quick to assist. Big shoutout to Travis for coming out twice, once on Christmas Eve, to help us out with beeping/alarming smoke detectors. Some of the amenities are outdated like the pots/pans, movies (VCR!), and the griddle. The griddle is almost not usable so don't count on it. The heating coils have clearly burned through to the cooktop. The listing states all bedrooms have access to an outside balcony or porch, but the 1st floor front room does not. Technically you can get outside but not from inside the room. All other rooms have a door that go outside. The 2nd floor balconies/porches do not have stairs down to the first floor. The first floor back porch connects to both first floor bedrooms on the back of the house and have a gated staircase down to the pool area, which is also gated to the carport area. Overall we would stay here again. For the price and the space we had plus the elevator, it was ideal for our families.

Should have been 5 stars all around
We picked this property because it had several main items we needed - elevator for my 89 year old father, a full size bed in all rooms with en suite baths, accepted dogs and had a pool that could be heated for an extra fee. The house was beautiful, the location and views were excellent. However, we did not check the pool heat until the following day (Sunday), no heat. When I called Vacasa, the mgmt co. they said they would have someone there first thing Monday morning. They did not show until around 1 pm and stated would take 12-24 hours for it to heat. There also was no phone call or notification back to us to let us know that they had even taken care of the problem. By the time it heated up on Tuesday half of our family members were leaving to go home. We enjoyed it on Wednesday, Thursday it rained. Our last full day, Friday, we planned on spending at the pool but for some reason it was no longer heated. When I called they stated they would put in a ticket for service - very frustrating. We did not get to enjoy the last day as planned and there again was no communication back to us from Vacasa. I am still waiting to see if they reimburse the full amount for the pool heat. All that being said, the house and location were sooo nice that I would definitely rent it again. Just wish there was better communication
