Pictures do not do this place justice!

What a joy to stay at All Is Whale! This place is fresh and bright and beautiful. It was spacious, too, which our fur baby loved. Great location, just a short walk to the beach across the street.

House needs attention

The electrical outlets need to be checked . Several of the outlets are coming out of the wall. Driveway needs gravel, it is sand based and it gets on everything. Very hard to keep from tracking it into the house. The rugs were full of sand when we arrived. I had to clean floors before I unpacked.

The house was hot, when we arrived. We were hoping the air conditioning was just trying to catch up with the heat of the day. I called the office to let them know. We went out for dinner when we got back it was even hotter. The office said power was out while we were gone. But it came back on. So that night we melted and didn’t sleep. Next day I called back to make sure someone was coming to check ac. They came out and said ac unit was bad needed replacing. You could tell the ac unit had been neglected for years and not serviced. The next day window units were installed. The house was still hot. Ice maker didn’t work, and there were ants in the bathroom and a stain in the shower.

Great Location, and views.

I typically don't write reviews but feel this was needed. Our vacation was for a family get together with parents in their 80’s. Beach house was advertised with Wifi and Laundry. We could not get internet or TV stations or do our laundry with extreme rain during the 1st two days we were there. When calling the office to request some help. I was told someone would be by later. Early evening I called back and I was told the house was sold. The locks were changed for downstairs laundry and internet services had been changed by new Internet carrier by new owners purchasing home. I was working during the time I was there so it was an inconvenience not having WIFI and not being able to do our laundry. I also called to book an extra night which management and they accommodated but my parents paid for the extra night. Management should had offered some type of discount to them for all of our inconveniences. I have booked with them many other occasions and for several years. I never got a returned call to to rectify the situation.

Beautiful Beach House

We enjoyed our stay at this beach house. It is a second row beach house that is just steps from the public beach entrance. The house had all of the basic amenities that we needed during our stay and it was pet-friendly. We had a great time!

The house was great, property management not so!

House was as listed and we loved it. However, when we received our confirmation it stated linens were included. There were no linens when we arrived on Saturday evening. I called the linen company, Sharon’s Linens, and she worked with us until 10:45 pm finally bringing us basic linens because she couldn’t get in touch with Coastal Vacations to find out why we weren’t on her list. I called on Monday and they said they would have the proper person return my call (which is the same person I emailed twice about it on Saturday and Sunday). I never received a return call. I called on Tuesday and was finally able to speak with someone who said I received the wrong confirmation, our house never comes with linens. This was just something we shouldn’t have had to deal with on vacation, I would’ve taken my own if I would’ve been given the right information from the beginning.
