The house is good. Very clean and has pretty much everything you need. The host wasn't there, but the neighbor filled in as host. They were very nice and even let us borrow a cooler. Communication was never an issue. Check-in and check out was very easy. I was even allowed an early check in and a late checkout, which I thought was great. I will say, though, that the house cost a lot for what we received. The pictures are a bit deceiving. Also, the house shouldn't advertise being on the beach. There is a walk to a stretch of beach, but there is nowhere on the sand to hang out. We spent no time there. Overall, I am very happy with Joe and his house and I would recommend it.
