Mother's Day Rental
I rented this place for my mother, and it's her second time staying here. It's situated in a peaceful neighborhood with friendly neighbors and is conveniently located just a mile or two from the beach. Additionally, it's close to all necessary amenities such as grocery stores, restaurants, and more.

Convenient Wells Location
The property was clean and fairly well-equipped. There is not a dish washer or a hair dryer. The neighborhood is quiet and great for walking a dog. The location is convenient.
What disappointed us was the lack of a local property manager. We had issues: no electricity in two rooms and a microwave that wasn’t working. When we try to contact the number provided, all we had was AI - none of our issues were resolved. A local human property manager could have assisted us.

The home was clean and provided everything that was needed to cook nice meal. It was quiet but close to shopping areas and grocery stores. I would highly recommend this home for your family and friends. It was pet friendly and very affordable and easy to find. Thank you.
The house was very clean upon arrival. Kitchen was stocked with everything you needed to cook any meal you can think of. The house accommodated my family of 6 with no problem. Would definitely recommend and stay again!
