I was a bit scared by the lack of reviews for this house. Arrived late due to flight delays, found the house with no problem in the middle of the night. Check-in was easy and as described, there was however a car in the driveway which was unnerving. There were also two pairs of slide sandals on the shoe rack. After checking to make sure nobody was there, we settled in. The following morning we figured out there was an apartment in the detached garage and the laundry was shared with the resident who had to come through our patio area to use the laundry. There were a couple of occasions we needed to do laundry since we were there for a week of sports and it was occupied. Fought ants by the kitchen sink and stove a couple days but found spray and traps under the sink. There were no extra trash bags for the kitchen and messaged several times through VRBO and text with no response from the owner but we managed. Backyard could use some TLC and new patio furniture. Now for all the positives: close commute to the pool, shopping, groceries, and the beach. Bedrooms were perfect size for our group and the two full bathrooms were nicely remodeled. The house had a great vibe and was definitely cozy. The neighborhood was close to all the main roads and seemed very safe and most houses were nicely maintained. Would I stay here again, absolutely as it fit all of our needs perfect and was convenient. As another renter noted, there’s only 4 plates/bowls/saucers so we bought disposable plates.
