It sleeps 6, but what we didn't know is that it is 2 twin beds and 2 sofa sleepers. It's not luxury accommodations. It's like camping but in a cabin. You need to bring all your own silverware, cups, plates etc... All that being said, it is so nice. We had a great little balcony / deck where we could sit out and watch the sunset. We feel asleep to the sound of the waves crashing on the shore. It's a perfect beach getaway.

I don't think I could come up with something negative if you held a gun to my head! The roof deck was the crown jewel, but there were 3 different outdoor areas to relax, lounge, etc each with a view, or privacy, and in some cases both. The inside was exactly as pictured and described. Spacious, well-appointed, and complete. Bathrooms, bedrooms, and kitchen were all spotlessly clean and free of sand--which is saying something because we were 1 block from the beach! The view, the proximity to the beach, the walkability to restaurants and shops, I can't imagine ever even looking for something better! We were able to accommodate 3 1/2 couples! Finally, the host was on call and responded immediately on even the most minor of questions. Plus, they proactively reached out a couple times to make sure all was well!

Unfortunately, our experience with Beachview Rentals was extremely disappointing. We booked this…read morehome expecting a relaxing vacation, but instead dealt with multiple issues that significantly affected our stay. The biggest issue was the construction happening directly next to the property. We were woken up at approximately 7:00 a.m. every day by loud construction, including jackhammers and large equipment. This was incredibly disruptive and absolutely should have been disclosed before our stay. Had we known the extent of the construction, we would not have chosen this property. The house was also extremely hot with poor ventilation and inadequate A/C. The bedroom windows did not have appropriate coverings that allowed us to comfortably leave them open, and there were no additional fans available in the house. The property was also poorly stocked for a reservation of eight people. We arrived to find only three rolls of toilet paper and two laundry pods for eight guests. The kitchen was minimally stocked as well. Even something as basic as pepper was missing, requiring us to leave in the middle of preparing dinner to purchase basic supplies. The outdoor grill was dirty and several of the burners/flames did not ignite properly. It clearly needed cleaning and maintenance. The port where the barbecue was was swarming with flies. This also could've been caused by the big dumpster around the corner from us due to the construction. The linens and towels were also very cheap and uncomfortable, which was disappointing considering the cost of the rental. What makes this experience even more frustrating is that I had previously contacted the company about rescheduling our stay. Had the construction situation been disclosed at that time, much of this could have been avoided. Vacations are expensive, and guests deserve to know about significant construction and other conditions that may affect their stay before they arrive. We came here specifically to relax and instead were woken up every morning and spent the week dealing with issues that should not occur at a professionally managed vacation rental. Given the circumstances, I believe a partial refund would be appropriate and was denied. I would strongly encourage anyone considering a Beachview Rentals property to ask specifically about nearby construction, A/C and ventilation, and what supplies are actually provided before booking.
