PROS: Spotless on entry. Extremely well-equipped kitchen; bedrooms and bathrooms sizeable; clean linens already on beds and bath towels, hand towels and wash cloths provided (for 12). Balconies, screened porch, patio, pool (including outdoor furniture on balconies and pool area), outdoor shower and gas grill amenities made the home. Great room, dining room (table for 12) and kitchen have ample space. Tasteful, coastal decor throughout home. CONS: Small leak under a bathroom sink upon arrival. Plumber came out and said he could not fix it during our stay. We used a small bucket - not a big problem. Propane tank was empty - had to go to Surf or Sound Office to exchange tank - later saw this procedure on information documents at the house. No hot water for 1.5 days - after a few calls to the office within 2-hour time period, I spoke to Patti who said, "I am dropping what I'm doing to get this resolved". The following morning the hot water heater was replaced - no further problems throughout stay. Patti was awesome!!
THE BEACH: Parking for about 8 cars a block from the house and then 1/2 block from the boardwalk. You can briefly park in front of the boardwalk to let out family and beach gear. There is boardwalk-to-sand access to get to the beach. There is also a long-boarded ramp for handicapped individuals and/or carts, but once you get to the top of the ramp, it becomes stairs to get down to the beach. Also, 2 kayaks and several beach chairs provided.Great sunrises and sunsets
