Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The inside of the house was clean, nicely decorated and very beachy. Our 8 people were very comfortable. There were many many light bulbs burned out but we made it work. The deck on the outside was spacious although we wished it had a table to sit at. The deck was in poor repair and had lots of sharp and rough spots from peeling paint. The beach was very close and easy to get down to.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The interior of the beach house was nice. However the exterior was not as advertised. The photos show a nice porch and downstairs area that is painted grey and white. When we got their the porch and downstairs was half way painted this awful red/brown color and it obviously had been done some time ago bc it was peeling off. Also felt weird having to pay for linens and then still having to make all of the beds ourself. Going on vacation felt more like being a housemaid instead.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The beach house was absolutely wonderful and accommodating for our family and our pup Phoebe! The home was beautiful, the view was spectacular, and the close access to the beach made everything so much easier to and from the beach. The local food places were all about 10-15 minute drive and the food was all so amazing! Perfect spot for your family to enjoy a beachfront week!

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We searched for homes with a lift because we needed one. Bella Vista came up and we had stayed there before and used the lift. Because it came up we thought that meant the lift was available. There were 5 women over 65 at this camp in the middle of a storm. It literally took hours be get everything up there. Please fix your site so other will not think the lift is available. It shouldn't come up under that search criteria if it's not available. We have rented with you for over 20 years. This was very disappointing. And there was no ice maker in the refrigerator. A beach house needs an ice maker

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is well-kept and comfortable. We were so excited it is also pet friendly so our dog could come for his first beach trip too. With the beach access road right next to the house, it was easy to load up the car and drop off our needs for the day on the beach and then drive the car back so we weren’t hauling back and forth on foot. We loved our stay. The only downfall is there isn’t a separate washer and dryer so if we had stayed longer than our 4 days we might have gone to a laundromat. Other than that, beautiful property and amenities.
