Hidden gem
The original floors and doors in this home made the cottage feel like a piece of history. We loved the screened porch and plenty of seating for family. The back deck and private pool area were thoroughly enjoyed by the kids. We loved that there were beach chairs provided. Beach access is literally directly in front of this house. A little hidden gem that we will definitely visit again!
Stayed 2 nights in May 2024

Charming, but needs maintenance
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a charming older beach house, with a great location! The air conditioning was great, and the beds were very comfortable. A nice large TV was in the living room, and a second TV in one bedroom. I enjoyed the large screened in front porch which had plenty of seating (loved the porch swing). The updated back porch and pool area was attractive, and again had ample seating. Under the house is a storage area of chairs, beach toys, bicycles, children’s swings and 2 outdoor showers (we did not use). The living room furniture was comfortable. I appreciated the bookshelf & all the books, great vacation reads. The windows had heavy blinds-good privacy. The kitchen was well stocked. The washer & dryer worked well. Now for the disappointments: the home appears older than the photos, lacking cub appeal, the gas grill was old, rusted, dirty and unable to be used. (A charcoal grill and supplies were there, although we expected a working gas grill- called maintenance-never came to check/change it). Several light bulbs were missing we replaced)one bedroom lamp cracked and not working. While swimming one of the bricks on the pool surround was loose and fell into the pool. The light switches on the walls being located in odd places and not marked made it confusing for those in our group to use. I question the cleanliness of the wood cabinets & countertops in the kitchen. Sprayer in kitchen sink was loose. Dishwasher is older, had trouble using it. We had 2 wasp nests on back porch, 1 on front porch - bought wasp killer & sprayed all. This would be a great vacation rental if the maintenance issues were addressed.

Dishwasher appeared to be old and not washing well did all dishes by hand as a result but otherwise very nice house. Island is wonderful to deal with very accommodating!

Spring family vacay at 409 Ocean Blvd.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very pleased overall...the location was perfect, front porch was very relaxing. Backyard deck and pool area were excellent. Beds were the most comfortable we have had in a rental. Showers had good water pressure. Loved the retro kitchen sink! Kitchen countertops and cabinets desperately need replacing, they are sticky and worn.The house needs a very good DEEP cleaning. There is dust on the shiplapp walls inside, and dust coated on the light fixtures. We love the vintage feel of the house, but it needs to be cleaned. AC was not working when we arrived, but the staff sent a repair guy promptly and the rooms were cooled by bedtime. We would definitely stay here again, just hoping it will be cleaner next time.

A rare treasure!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We adored this historic beach house, so close to the ocean. The big front porch was welcoming, the back deck added more options for enjoying the beautiful weather. We love historic places and the beautiful wood interior was very cozy. It was so comfortable and also had modern conveniences of dishwasher, washer/dryer, etc. The management company was super responsive for any questions we had and very friendly. Thank you for sharing this special place! We look forward to visiting again!

A Quaint Beach House
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Staying in 409 Ocean is a trip back in time. A lovely screened in front porch and great rear deck. Well stocked. Good mattresses,Fabulous location.the only reservation was that the windows in the bedrooms were very difficult to open.this may have been a winter to spring transition. And the late 4pm check in time means you have to deal with things on your own the first night. In sum good house, great location,fun as long as you have the right expectations when you check in.

We rented a golf cart to toddle around our neighborhoods or quick run local stores/shops and dinner! Thank you for sharing your home with us, it was amazing!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great week at Ocean Blvd 409. The house is in a great location and was clean. We knew it was an older home prior to arrival so we expected that. It definitely could use some updating, especially to the kitchen and baths, but overall we were pleased and got exactly what was explained to us. It was comfortable and we enjoyed the deck and screen porch. The pool was extremely cold and not usable this time of year, so that was very disappointing to our kids. (no heater) Cooper was excellent to work with and I would not hesitate to book with this company again.

It's a cozy, neat home. Nothing modern here but had everything we needed and was neat and clean - just old but well maintained. We loved it and would definitely stay here again.

However the previous time was a 2 hr wait time, this one was 20 min. 20 min is too long. Why the keys can't be ready on time is hard to understand.

A solid 6.2 on a 10.0 scale.
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cottage is...unusual. It's both charming and fusty. It was built in 1938, and looks it. Every surface of the interior--ceilings, floors, doors, and cabinets--is varnished wood. I don'tthink the floors have been refinished since the place was built. So, it's dark and man-cave like. Most of the furnishings appear to be from Goodwill. Think of this cottage as the "un-condo". If you're looking for crisp white walls and up-tempo decor, this is not your place. It feels like a cabin in the North Woods. Think: Shabby Chic/Goth.Now, the good news. The beds are some of the best I've slept in, anywhere: firm, and comfortable. The bathrooms were updated in the mid-90's, but are clean and functional. The kitchen appliances are relatively new and top of the line. And, the kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, pans, etc.The pool in the backyard is stunning, recently built, and perfect for young children. The bar-b-q grill is top of the line.The bad news: The kitchen cabinets and counter tops are old, and made of faded, varnished wood. The "charming" twin sink is circa 1926, has no disposal. is rusty inside, and should be torn out and destroyed. The plywood counter tops are a health hazard (salmonella anyone?). Did I miss the bed covers and pillows? "Fusty" would be an understatement.The exterior needs a paint job--every square inch of it--and some much needed repair due to deterioration and rot.There is no ocean view, as two McMansions have just been built across the street. You can hear the ocean, you just can't see it. "Across the street from beach" is misleading.This place screams "teardown". Unless you enjoy a certain kind of "charm".Overall, on a good day, a solid 6.2 on a 10.0 scale.

Great Vacation House
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at this rental property previously and have always enjoyed it. Very quaint and in a great location. Our only issue is that the propane tank for the gas grill was empty. We've actually had this same issue with almost every property we've rented through Island Realty.

Bricks around edge of pool are a safety hazard, one came off as one grandson was about to jump in pool and almost hit other grandson in head. Inside of house is very dark, very old. Floor in back left bedroom has boards that give when you step in them.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here for the winter and loved it. The beach is literally across the street! Walk to the beach several times a day. The home was quaint and historic. The front and back porches made excellent extensions to the living space to enjoy the weather outside. The pool and backyard living area was great for bbqs, chilling and outdoor fun. We really had a great timethe Casita De Palma!
