Listing was very accurate

With the exception of smelly tap water (sulfur) and no linens in bedrooms. Everything else was just great.

Casa Bonita

This property was perfect for our large family stay. The main floor is upstairs & includes a kitchen, living room, sun room, bedroom & attached bathroom with 3 exits to a large balcony. The kitchen is big enough to cook in for a large family, with the few meals we did make. The living room is spacious, but has limited seating. The dining area has enough seating for 10, not including the 4 barstools with counter space. There is a basement entrance from outside with an unfinished staircase to the lower level. That staircase isn’t as steep as the stairs on the exterior which made it much more bearable carry lots of luggage & small kids. There was no deadbolt on the inside main door, which made it difficult with toddlers that could reach. There is a small washer & dryer on the lower level. The lower level also has 3 bedrooms & two bathrooms. That space does feel small but was okay since the living area was so big. There is access from the lower master bedroom to the lower deck & hot tub. The kitchen was full of dishes. The only complaint we really had was the smell from the drains. Anytime we washed clothes/showered/used the sinks at all, a very ‘rotten egg’ smell came out. The smell really didn’t linger long as long as nothing was being washed down the drains. The AC also wouldn’t go any lower than 67, which seems pretty low, but not for the extremely hot temperatures. The upstairs AC wouldn’t keep up with the rising temperatures through the day, or even cooking. The location was pretty great! We were just a short drive over the dunes away from the ocean. Tips for driving on the sand: air down to 10-16 psi. It makes for a much smoother ride. Research high tide & low tide. During high tide, you will have to drive in the water. It was never too deep when we stayed & our vehicle moved through it well. There are tons & tons of ruts that jerked us around from time to time, but nothing too extreme. Overall, driving on the beach was a blast. It was fun for the adults & the kids.
