Two bedrooms downstairs with living room and bath; and, two bedrooms upstairs with kitchen and bath and awesome view of the ocean and beach.

Family Vacation

We had a great experience staying at this property! This is our 6th straight year staying in Wells and this was the best one yet. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Walking out the door and onto the beach for sunrise…. Doesn’t get better than that! Check in was easy and Sophia was responsive and helpful. Would love to stay again.

Excellent Family Vacation on Wells Beach

Our family of 4 had a great week staying in Beach House #2 at Wells Beach. Central location on the beach side of Atlantic was perfect for walks to the Jetty or down to the square for ice cream. Sophia was super responsive and helpful! Overall, excellent property as described. We wish our friends could have made it - maybe next time!

A very nice week

We were in house number 2 which is just a minute's walk from the beach. We encountered a few minor issues with the coffee maker and the grill not working that the host dealt with the same day that we let her know about it which was helpful. We all had a memorable vacation.

Location (and responsiveness) can't be beat!

This is a really great location even though you are the second house of a 2-house oceanfront lot. It takes less than 30 seconds to walk onto the sand! House is kept in great shape and clean and the owner Sophie is very easy to communicate with and quite responsive.

Great beach getaway!

We had a wonderful stay at Sophia's Wells Beach house! The home was extremely clean, had everything we needed and the ability to see the beach, hear the waves and get our toes in the sand in just steps was exactly what we were hoping for. The AC worked on warm nights and the heat worked great on the cooler nights - and the two separate living areas was an added benefits with two little ones running around. The beach is right there but there are also great little trails to explore close by too. Thanks Sophia - great property and appreciate your prompt communication throughout our stay!

We a great time visiting our brother in Wells for the week. We were looking for a place with beach access and a separate space for our teenagers to hangout. This place fit the bill perfectly! The house was clean and the owner was very responsive when we had an issue. The view of the ocean from the living room was better than we were expecting. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Comfort and Convenience

My family and I had a wonderful time staying at this home. We rented both the front and the back houses as we were a group of 6 couples and 3 kids ranging from 13-6 years old. The beach access was definitely the appeal of the house, we were able to spend quality time together both in the house and on the sand without making a huge production of traveling to the beach everyday. Sophia was responsive to all of our questions and concerns and we would definitely stay here again.
