Overall, we had a good stay at this home. It's about 4 blocks from the beach, or a 5-10 minute walk. The listing photos were pretty accurate, although this really isn't a "brand new" house as the listing says. Carpets are pretty dingy and could be replaced. My other thoughts:PROS: Has a washer and dryer, which we used most days to dry towels. Location is close enough to walk to the beach and a couple of restaurants. Garage is huge, we were able to leave all the beach gear in there and it's big enough for cars, though we just parked on driveway. Great dining room table that seats 6 (there are also barstools you can pull over to the table) and is perfect for playing board games. CONS: The biggest disappoint for me was the lack of adequate kitchen utensils and cookware. We usually prefer a rental home over a hotel so that we can do some cooking ourselves. This kitchen is sorely lacking. For example, there are only 4 drinking glasses and 7 forks in the entire house. There is no colander or can opener, both of which I really needed. There is only 1 oven mitt. There is 1 small baking sheet. I consider these pretty basic items that should be available. The sitting area could also use some work. The sectional didn't have a backrest along one part, so it doesn't seat many people. It would have been nice to have 2 accent chairs in the area with the sectional so that everyone in our group could sit in there together.
