Family-friendly home near the ocean close to seasi

I really wanted to give this 5 stars because you can tell this was once a beloved family space. Not sure what has happened, but the current owners need to add some updates. The kitchen is lacking in many areas, and the items that are there are old, mismatched, or broken. The pot I used to boil water, a handle that was coming apart. The king-size bed sags in the middle. Areas of the flooring have gaps near the other two bedrooms. It appears as if the cheap option is taken to cut corners, and money is not wanted to be spent. However, the rate per night is consistent with the area, so you are paying for a Motel 6 at a Marriott price. There was a smell upon arriving that others had mentioned, but it comes and goes. The location is fantastic, the screened-in porch was lovely, there are plenty of towels, bikes were a bonus, plus the beach chairs. This could be a gem if a few items are addressed. It is just hard paying for a rental, and you can tell the owners don't seem to care about their VRBO guests.

The best! We loved our time at Memories. Very cute and cozy with my favorite beach entrance in Seagrove. The bikes were such a nice bonus as well!

I enjoyed my stay at Memories! The location truly does not get better than this. A three minute walk straight into your beach access and just blocks away from Seaside with easy access to food spots and coffee shops. I love the retro-beach theme of this home. However the kitchen is definitely dated. My main and biggest complaint is that there was a strong, bad smell in and around the home that was really unpleasant.

Love the cottage and location. Beautiful beach with great access!

I already sent my review to Vacasa, check with them. I'm requesting a refund. I didn't take any pictures but if I had you would see the overflowing garbage can, mosquitoes, and a very unkept yard and entrance. Place smells of mildew. Very bad experience! Unhappy Camper
