Great beach house to enjoy the beach
The property was clean and neat as shown in photos. There were no exquisite furnishings or features, just what you need to have a comfortable stay. This is perfect for a house as close to the beach as it is. I would certainly stay there again.

Amazing location and accurate description
Our trip was a mother/daughter trip (older girls) and the rental was a perfect fit for us. The Beach is incredibly close. You can park and not get into your vehicle the entire week. Next door to Chiringo and Red Bar and tons more Restaurants and shopping are a short tram ride away. The tram picks up in front of the rental. The beds are comfortable and everything was clean and exactly as described. One note: The appliances are very old and loud (dishwasher) and the washing machine must has mold in it because everything stinks if you use it. But it is a great little rental that we enjoy very much.

Great location!
We enjoyed our stay at Sam’s Place West. The location is fantastic! We could walk to the beach and to local restaurants and general store. The unit was comfortable and quiet. The kitchen is small, but fit our needs just fine. (3 ladies on a girls trip) The drawbacks were: 6pm check in time, shared porch with older furniture that did not afford a view when seated. Another oddity is that the owner Sam seems to be on site most of the time (does he live there?) and one night his friend and young son were hanging out. This gave an odd feeling when you are descending the stairs to go out and encounter a stranger in your space. Otherwise, we had a great trip.

I have thought long and hard about this property so I’m going to give the good and the bad. Good Location is great Management group was the best ever The owner very good and addressed anything we needed done Close to the beach Very close to bars and restaurants Bad Wasn’t very clean. They came in and cleaned a couch and helped get the musty smell out. We also bought cleaning supplies to deep clean it. Need all new furniture most of it was broken Should be updated paint colors fixtures etc Should be cleaned up outside. When we left we had the place spotless After all this would I stay there again, probably. We aren’t snobs and I don’t normally post this stuff but for the price it should be better kept. Lastly the place is set up for a family with 2 kids not really two couples. Just not enough bathroom space.

Great location! It was nice, but a little dirty and run down for the price and strict rules. It needs a better shower curtain, wouldn’t stay where it was supposed and didn’t fit so it made a mess. Not enough washcloths and there was trash in the laundry room. There was an awkward hanging rack in the bedroom that shouldn’t have been there.
