I felt very fortunate that I was able to snag this place last minute for our spring break trip as, unless we wanted to camp outside, there was nothing else available within our price range. I recommend taking the price of this unit into consideration when reading my review-you will be hard pressed to find another stay at this low rate with the perks this place has to offer on Air B&B.
Location is perfect-we walked from the ferry terminal to our place carrying all of our stuff in about ten minutes. The unit is situated part way up a hill which allows you a partial view of the ocean from the porch and kitchen. The main beach is only about a 5-minute walk away. Also convenient is the Vonn's which is in walking distance-use the pedestrian path for a scenic and quicker trip.
This place is old as in it was built over 100 years ago so be prepared for that. I appreciated how quaint and basic it was. As others have pointed out-the beds are older and you can hear the springs creak-especially the daybed in the front room. The master bed also creaked a bit but was pretty comfortable. I really liked the kitchen-full gas stove, large refrigerator, and plenty of windows to look out of while washing dishes or preparing food. They provide about 4 comfy adjustable beach chairs that are light and easy to carry down to the beach.
A few things to be aware of-there was no veggie peeler or colander. All of the cutting boards are very small. While there were plenty of bath towels and linens-they did not provide beach towels. I believe that you can rent beach towels at the beach. Also-the outside shower was not working when we were there-this could be because there was a little construction work going on the side of the house. No one rented the unit above us the first two nights but on the third night there was someone there and I could definitely hear them walking around. I'm a pretty heavy sleeper so it didn't bother me.
One last perk-we visited during a heat wave-it was over 90 degrees out but the unit never got that hot-it may be the way it's situated on the hill or because it's facing east. There were plenty of fans available but we only needed to turn on the ceiling fan in the front room.
If you're looking for a deal and not high maintenance-this is the place for you.
