We had a wonderful vacation in this beautifully-appointed bayside cottage. The house is terrific-comfortable, well stocked and stylishly decorated from top to bottom. The linens were especially nice, and included big, thick bath and beach towels. The bed was super comfortable and we fell asleep to the sound of waves from the bay lapping at the shore with cool breezes coming in from the water. The location is stunning with sunset views over the water every evening from two balconies. We grilled, swam, sunbathed, and RELAXED in this lovely home. We had a truly great time. The host was easy to work with and highly responsive. Thank you for giving us such a fantastic week away!

We don't like it when Americans use the term 'gorgeous' in an inflationary way. However, there can be no other verdict for the house '7 Whales' in North Truro. In our 33-year relationship, we have traveled all over the world. Since we have always liked the peace and seclusion of a holiday home compared to a hotel complex, we have seen and lived in many houses during this time. However, none come close to the standard of the '7 Whales'. The landlady Leah seems to have a limitless sense of style and design. The house is incredibly rich and opulently furnished. Every detail looks as if it was individually hand selected. The functionality and range of features go far beyond the average holiday apartment. It starts with the location: the parking space for a car directly in front of the house, Cape Cod Bay directly behind the house. At high tide the sea almost reaches the terrace. On the two balconies and the terrace you can enjoy the sun from dawn to dusk. The sunsets over Provincetown, 4 miles away, are spectacular. The house itself has a bathroom with shower, a second guest toilet, an extensively equipped kitchen with an additional refrigerator, a washing machine with dryer function, several garden furniture and a gas grill. The care from the landlady in advance and the cleanliness were simply perfect. There is really nothing missing to spend an ideal holiday. That's why we only have one rating: *****+ Five Star Plus, the gold standard of tourism; could not be better!

Nice condo stuffed with art and bric a brac. Very comfy outdoor spaces, quiet off season. When all units full, privacy could be a problem. Retro kitchen appliances work, but indicators on the stove knobs have mostly worn off, making use of the oven in particular a mystery. Comfortable bed and great shower and tons of towels. Having to cross a busy highway and unlock a dumpster to dispose of trash is a task too far for the rent paid. Leah was responsive and warm in all communication with her. All in all we had a rejuvenating week.

Even with bad weather, great spot

Leah’s place was very clean, comfortable, and well decorated. We really enjoyed the views from the master bedroom. Kitchen was fully stocked and the living area was well setup. They even had a couple of take home gifts for us (a bag of local coffee, bottle of wine, bar of soap), which we thought was very kind. Though our main disappointment was that the property wasn’t as private as advertised. The unit is within a shared community, meaning there are immediately adjacent neighbors attached on both sides. The neighbors make use of the common space between the unit and the beach to sunbathe and play ball etc, so we didn’t feel we had the privacy to just relax in the downstairs patio by the water. There was also noise from kids using that common space as playground (even though the unit itself is 25+). And yes, there’s a beach in front of the unit, shared among the condo community (so not the listing’s own private beach); but due to high tide, the beach disappears in the afternoons and it becomes a pool of water against the property retainer wall (you can then access the water via a ladder). We ended up ubering to nearby beaches for water access. There’re nice views of P-town that you can enjoy from the upper deck, and again, the interior of the home is very nicely setup with plenty of amenities. Finally, we recommend planning ahead and allowing ample time for the check-out chores list. We ended up having to check out couple hours late, but Leah was very understating.

Your place was sweet 4 people was to close 2 people would be perfect . Your furnishings and decor were phenomenal. The outdoor deck of the master bedroom was the best.

Lovely condo, overlooking Cape Cod Bay…very nicely appointed. Idea for my husband and I to see this part of the Cape, enjoy great dining, and seeing friends as well.

The home was perfect for the two of us, with great views of the water, clean, and very well appointed. There were games and books, and lots of fun decorative appointments. We highly recommend it.
