The location is wonderful. The house is certainly big enough for multiple families. There are many spaces to gather and entertain and you can’t beat being a two minute walk from the beach or a 5 minute walk to Newport Avenue with tons of shops. I also loved that the chest in the back had a lot of Children’s toys and there are many items to use at the beach. There were plenty of beach towels and having laundry on-site was so helpful. The hot tub and shower in the back were also so great to have.
There were a few items that need attention in the home. Some cosmetic and some functional. As other reviewers mentioned, some items were not in working order such as the water on the refrigerator. Also there is duct tape in the fridge which seems unprofessional. The Wi-Fi shut off randomly and was not reliable at all. One family member on our trip had work to do and it was a little frustrating for him.
The front room TV was small and did not work half the time. The couch in the front room is very lived on and feels like it should be replaced as the cushions are all worn in some places and make it difficult to get comfortable on.
If you have neck issues of any kind, bring your own pillows as they were very uncomfortable. There was not enough toilet paper for the trip so purchase some extra if you are having a week long trip.
The third level is very high up two long sets of stairs so if you have little ones they will need extra attention to not fall down stairs or open windows. There are no screens and children can fall out if unattended.
The cons are minimal and do not outweigh the pros of this home.
