The house is amazing! You are paying for location!!! That saying the perks of this being so close to the beach was so nice yet on the flip side being so close to the street on the other side made mornings noisy. I was a little disappointed by the flies and Hottub but I didn’t really expect to use the front area much … it just would had been nice to have that option. The communication was good with the host… just note in hot summer months without AC just be prepared… this was an adjustment but I’m from AZ where we live with AC all the time.
