Location is excellent.
To summarize, its a cute home in an excellent location and we'd probably return based on who was traveling with us.
We had stayed in this home about 12 years ago (under previous ownership) so we knew most of its shortcomings. It's an old beach cottage that has lots of charm so don't expect a bunch of modern amenities. That being said, the AC kept the house cool, the internet worked well, the kitchen was fine (and well stocked with nice dishes, glasses and silverware) and the king/queen beds were very comfortable. Another bonus is the fact that there's FOUR parking places (Five if you're creative).
Personally, I think of full beds as singles so its more accurate to say that it sleeps 10, maybe 11 if you count the daybed on the front porch. Given that the dining table can really only seat 8, I'm not sure where you'd feed another 7 guests anyway. The house has 3 full bathrooms - the two on the upper levels are a little tight but modern and clean. The basement 'bathroom' is completely serviceable but the stairwell to access it is pretty steep so best for 10-50 year-olds.
The owners definitely made some nice upgrades to the property and the interior design is well done.
I don't have a lot of bad to say; the back patio needs some serious work as the pavers have heaved, sunk, etc and we had two minor injuries on it so we decided to avoid it. The grill has seen better days and we didn't feel safe using it so we avoided it as well.
If you take anything away from this - you're paying for a perfect location.
