Family Reunion 2024

What a great place for our family of 6 siblings plus spouses. Each had their own bedroom and bathroom which was a real perk. The living area and kitchen was enough room for us to all be together. The location to the beach was perfect!

Awesome beach front house!

Loved the easy access to the beach, clean rooms, and well furnished style. A little lacking on kitchen items but overall a great stay!

On the beach!

This is directly on the beach. Can`t ask for closer to the beach than this. You can easily walk back and forth to get your drinks or food and come back. Excellent pricing for this type of value.

Family Vacation

Excellent place to stay. A family vacation with 16 people, enough room and having all the bathrooms was beneficial. Beach was absolutely gorgeous. Would highly recommend. We did have to purchase some kitchen hand towels and dish cloths. Also brought our own extra silverware as there would not have been enough.

Wonderful house and Location

House really was nice and you can’t beat the view and location. However, we never did get the two non-working toilets upstairs to work unless manually flushed with the tank lid off even tho it was reported on Monday and Wednesday of our start

Family week

The house was clean great location. The elevator was out and one person in our group was on crutches which made going in and out quite difficult. The internet went out on day 2 but we had a wedding so we were in and out for one of the days. We didn’t call it in immediately. The company did promptly come out but they were unable to fix it, I did receive a small credit for the inconvenience. Over all I would recommend the property and probably book again at this location. were not able to fi

Great location, spacious

Our group of 10 adults and two kids stayed 5 nights at this location. Awesome view and access directly to the beach. Nice to have bathrooms for each of the bedrooms. AC worked great and lots of space to all hang out. The kitchen was sort of well stocked but lacked some basics like spoons, pot holders, dish towels. Grill is a very simple charcoal style grill - no grill tools and the lid has no handle so a bit tricky to use. Overall nice place, but stop by the store for paper plates, cups, paper towels, and utensils on your way.

Casa del Mar

Excellent location, near to downtown, pretty and well-kept inside, open layout, 7 bedrooms, tons of baths. We felt so pampered with the large jetted master bathtub with a huge window overlooking the ocean. Really liked the private deck off the master bedroom. There is a very helpful ice maker appliance that was so helpful. Be sure to pack extras for the kitchen if you plan on cooking, such as spices, food storage containers, plasticwrap, large edged cookie sheet, crock pot, extra dish towels etc. Also bring anything for a beach day, chairs, blanket, towels, etc. We were very pleased with the house.

Location Location Location

The location of this property is perfect. The number of en suite bathrooms was perfect. The kitchen is well stocked and big. There is a laundry room upstairs and downstairs. The patios and furniture is nice. The property does need some upgrades. The living room furniture is really worn and feels dirty (has a smell). The carpet has a lingering cigarette smoke smell. Our clothes smelled of smoke when we got back home, we had to rewash everything.

Spectacular View. Sleeps a Crowd. Feeds a Few.

You can't beat the view. The sweeping windows and well-furnished in the main living area create a showstopper every morning, noon and night of your stay. The house was clean and we couldn't have been better informed by the Vacasa team leading into and through our stay. The only area that could be improved is the kitchen. Appliances are fine - it's the dishes and such. There are very few bowls, no frying pans, few coffee cups and no wine glasses. And while for some that's no big deal - we had a house of 14 so we gathered daily for breakfast and dinner around the (wonderful) table but quite often were sipping soup or eating fruit out of glasses. That's the only "ding." Other than that, it checked all the boxes which is why I still gave it 5 stars. I'd stay again! I would just pack my frying pan and dishware for the drive ;)

Lot of repair issues

Property was convenient, clean and spacious. Kitchen was I’ll equipped with broken coffee cup, limited cooking pans and mismatched and inadequate utensils. We had to buy frying and baking trays. Toilet paper holder in one bathroom broken off wall. Towel rack in another bath on floor, front shade half broken, exterior stair rail very loose (seems very dangerous). Broken hardware just laying on entertainment center in master bed room. Two tub enclosures in bedroom profusely leaking requiring constant towels. Tried to call Vacasa but answering system would never answer or allow for a message. Would constantly loop back to main menu. Left text early in week . Received answer right before leaving that they would schedule a repairman. Very dissatisfied.

Nice location. Missing a few items.

No cloths hangers. No kitchen basics like salt, peeper or sugar, other than dishes, a few countertop appliances and silverwear. One Kurag didn't work. Closet light out in 2nd floor, NW bedroom. Very leaky ouside shower. That one really needs to get fixed. Lots of water is being wasted. Other than those few things, we liked the location and the house itself.
