Vacation in Paradise

Great property and house. 5th bedroom not actually a bedroom-bunk beds only, no window and no closet which was a little disappointing. Other than that a great house. Beautiful view of the ocean too!

Great Beach View house

This is an extremely great house for our families needs. We have two kids 6 and 9, and 6 adults. NOTHING to complain about. Great pool, everything we needed inside and out, very short walk to the beach, nice quiet neighborhood. The steps up to the front door may be an issue for some with mobility issues. Upon arrival the door code we were given was wrong but quickly corrected by easily contacting rental company. Wonderful week!

Cleanliness less that expected

While the property was below average upon arrival as far as cleanliness, we did contact the property manager and received attention quickly. When we arrived there were chips on the rugs that had not been vacuumed efficiently as well as candy wrappers in the screen room and around the pool deck. The pool deck needed cleaning as well as the pool. The lawn service was still working at 4 and was not expecting us. He had to leave his job unfinished to move his truck so we could unload. Thanks to Christian and Isaac, the unit was vacuumed, trash emptied, pool deck and screen room picked up and swept. They also said they would tell maintenance that the pool and deck need cleaning. We appreciate their efforts and the operator I spoke with at the property management office. As a note of safety that needs attention, we had a 3 year old with us. Some of the railings on the front deck were loose. For safety we had to keep a chair in front of that area. This needs attention.

Great location & stay!

We had a great experience at Waterside Wave. The location was amazing, we loved the private beach, quiet neighborhood, nearby things to do, and the closeness of beach access. It was a great stay overall & the minor suggestions we have did not affect our stay. We would suggest mentioning that the house is a duplex in the listing, it could change some peoples opinion on booking. Also, letting your guests know that 2 pack n plays are provided. We rented 2 & could have saved that money. Lastly, the cleanliness could use a little work. The dishwasher had food particles remaining when we arrived that we cleaned ourselves before using the dishwasher. And the kitchen floors had debri & spills on the floor upon arrival. Overall we loved our trip & were very happy with our stay!

Family oriented

The house was as listed. Location was great easy walk to the beach. Everything was cleaned and ready when we arrived. All emails I sent were answered promptly. The size was good for our family. My only complaint was the stove. It worked, but I feel that the heat levels printed on it in a sharpie marker, was not in keeping with the rest of the house. This house would not be a good fit for families who might have a family member that has mobility issues, lots of stairs and low toilets. It was perfect for myself, children and grandchildren. We had a great time sitting on the deck having coffee watching the waves. Quiet neighborhood, beautiful beach, comfortable house made for a great visit.

Great location!

We loved the location, views, etc.! There was quite a bit of construction going on around us, which resulted in 2 early morning, 6am awakenings. We would stay here again though.
