This house was perfect for our group. It had plenty of space and was very nice. It was a very short walk to the beach and the neighborhood was great. We had a few minor issues with ants due to overflowing trash bins left in the garage from previous guests. The first night of our stay there was a thunderstorm that blew the transformer and we lost power. I contacted Vacasa by text and called them to let them know we needed to report the power outage to the electric company and would like updates. I also sent pictures of the blown transformer. I was told the local team would contact me and that we probably didn’t have power because of the storm. I never got a call from the local team. We didn’t have power from 4:30AM-8:00PM and never heard anything from Vacasa which was a little frustrating. I called the power company and they let us know that the homeowner did indeed report the outage and power company kept us updated on repairs and restoration times. Can’t blame anyone for the weather, however it would’ve been nice to hear back from someone. Other than that we managed without power, enjoyed our time in the house and would definitely stay here again in the future.

We very much enjoyed the kitchen being directly behind the living room so that everyone was always included in what we were doing. Also having your own shower in almost every room was an amazing experience for everyone. The couch was almost more comfortable than the beds! Was a fantastic house and we had a fantastic stay!

This house was absolutely BEAUTIFUL and so was the community it was in. The big laundry room was so nice and needed with 4 kids. The living room & kitchen were larger enough for our 2 families. I really liked that there were 2 masters and most bedrooms had a bathroom attached. The negative was the house is not baby proof at all. There were no baby gates inside or outside the home. The glass table in the kitchen is a big hazard. Our kids bumped into it multiple times because they are small and can't see the edge of the pointed table. The glass coffee table in the living room we moved into the bedroom within 5 minutes of being at the home. Not every bathroom had soap which was very odd. The breakers in the kitchen were constantly tripping. When we first arrived the fridge kept going out. We couldn't use a few outlets due to them always tripping the fridge. Issue was reported and no one checked in on us. There isn't a fan in the living room but you can tell there should be. It was very hot in the living room, especially in the afternoon. The AC never kept up even with all the blinds closed. There were broken smoke detectors sitting upstairs and the master upstairs didn't have one. The wires that it should hook up to were hanging out. While this home is beautiful you can tell it was rushed and not all the details have been worked out.

This is a great house. There were 9 adults and plenty of room for everyone. The location is perfect and easy access to the beach and close to town.

Our extended family of 11 stayed at this home for 4 nights. The home was very clean upon arrival, was nice and spacious and was as pictured online. It is close to the beach and has good views of the ocean. We loved having so many bedrooms and bathrooms! The neighborhood is lovely! Our overall experience was positive but we did have some issues. The A/C upstairs struggled to keep up with the desired temperature. The electrical outlets in the kitchen area kept going out so we had to keep flipping the breaker switches. The supplies in the kitchen were inadequate for a home that can accommodate 16 people. We have seen all of these issues mentioned in previous reviews and due to the Vacasa responses we were hoping that they had been rectified prior to our arrival. These issues were disappointing but did not prevent us from having an enjoyable family time at The Beacon!

Beautiful home and great location!

Over all we were very satisfied with our stay. Pros: very clean, spacious, bathrooms in every room, close to the beach. The kitchen was more stocked than I had expected from the previous reviews. Cons: there were electrical issues in the kitchen. We kept having to reset the breaker when using certain appliances. The upstairs AC stopped working after the first night. I contacted the Vacasa guest services the second evening and they said they would send someone out the next day. No one ever showed up to service the house, so we spent the next two nights without AC. Luckily, the outside temps were in the mid-70's so the ceiling fans were sufficient. There was also a loose step at the top of the stairs in the garage which could've easily caused a fall for the unsuspecting guest. Despite the quirks of the house, we would definitely stay here again in the future and have already recommended to several friends.

Is this ok for a public review: We had a great weekend at the house. It is beautiful, in a great location and very spacious. The downstairs is very comfortable and accommodates a large group well. If you are planning to rent this home with a large group, please be aware that you will need the following: oven mitts, baking sheets, paper plates, drinking cups, coffee mugs, and kitchen knives. There are a few of these items in the home, but not enough for 12. The grill is a small hibachi grill requiring briquettes. The AC upstairs does not work, and although guest services is very accommodating and responsive, we were given the following information: "Thank you for patiently holding. The update on the matter is AC does work and has been checked by multiple techs. The house is just very large and has a metal roof so the AC has trouble keeping up. Our best suggestion is to keep fans on and window blinds closed. Is there anything else I can do for you?" Our trip was in late April, so outside temperatures were in the high 70s, but the air upstairs in the house was 82 in the evening. We just spent most of our time downstairs and several guests chose to sleep on the comfortable couch in the room by the kitchen, however, the motion sensitive lighting was a bit of a problem when trying to sleep in that room. Despite the AC issues, we had a wonderful trip. The location is great, the property is beautiful and the house itself is gorgeous.
