Small clean and quiet 2 bedroom 2 bath house on a hill within walking distance to the beach. There is a small porch overlooking the street, a large TV w/ streaming, comfortable beds, grill, beach chairs, linens, towels, and new appliances. All within a half mile of the pier.
We really enjoyed staying at Jan's place! She was a great host, with a place that we enjoyed being at. It wasn't far from the beach either! We'd definitely stay there again!
Jan was wonderful to deal with. We were here for a memorial service for my mom who passed last year and this was my first time staying outside of my mothers home. This house was perfect. Thank you!!
The house was all the good things I read about but we had to leave after 2 nights. On our third day while making coffee and toast at the same time, the fuses were blown & we learned the electrical panel needed to be updated. We couldnât get the electricity back & with much warmer temps coming & no AC, we opted to leave. The owner refunded our money for the days we were going to miss which was exactly what she needed to do. She apologized for the trouble via text. We had spoken several times on the phone prior to this happening & I thought it wouldâve been nice if she called me to discuss it but she did not. We spent half the day packing everything back up & etc then of course it took time to find a new place that fit our budget so I feel like we lost a whole day by the time we found a new place & unpacked etc. This was only my 2nd experience using VRBO, & the first one interestingly enough there were plumbing issues & they needed to bring in a plumber to fix it, so just bad luck?? Or are properties not being accurately represented. If the price seems reasonable or a good deal maybe things are not up to snuff???
As of right now without full access to my account my only issues with my stay remains Vrbo appâs issues and lack of customer service available. The host and the stay itself could not have been more lovely! Highly recommended locale!
We loved this house! It had everything we could have needed, great location, clean, and was perfect for our needs. So close to everything yet a quiet very pleasant neighborhood. Would for sure stay here again.
Great Place to Stay at Old Orchard Beach- close to everything!
We stayed here for a long weekend in June and just loved it! There is a large full kitchen with 2 large bedrooms and plenty of storage space, and having 2 bathrooms was awesome. It's just a short walk to the beach and all the attractions and restaurants, yet quiet and away from all the chaos. Jan is the best, and quick to answer any questions that come up. We are definitely coming back!
The place is cozy, well decorated and makes you feel right at home. On a very calm street, it's a 5 minutes walk to the beach and to the superb memorial park, the perfect place for our energic Frenchie. We totally recommend this place!
Overall this property is very nice. Convenient to restaurants and stores. Quick 5 minute walk to the beach. This property has everything you need to stay in or venture out.
We loved it here. It's very close to the ocean a short walk as well as short walk to the strip. Very quiet neighborhood and great 2 person balcony!! Had everything we needed and more!!
Cute house at 3 minutes from the beach. All was fine the thing I will say is the tap water smelling bad so we use bottled water and with the feeling to live at someoneâs place. (Used sponge and open food in the fridge)
The house was exactly as listed, perfect for 5 adults. We could easily walk anywhere- beaches, reataurants, etc. Could use some darkening curtains as a few outside lights shine right into a couple windows at night but otherwise this house was great. Had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. My father is 73 and the stairs were no
Issue for him, just mentioning this as others had brought it up. Thanks for letting us use your home!
Our family had a very delightful stay on this property. Its' convenient location on a quiet street made access to and from the beach very reasonable by foot. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was quite well equipped for cooking (one or two larger-sized pots would have made it even better). Access to a BBQ at the back was a nice touch, as was the mini-patio on the 2nd floor where we enjoyed coffee in the morning. All in all, we were very pleased with Jan's rental property and would definitely consider staying there again!
This was our first stay in Old Orchard Beach and our first time renting a house from the internet sight unseen. The cottage is an older home tucked in a hill, with lots of charm. We loved having the small balcony, the comfy living room, and two bathrooms! We walked everywhere! We are already talking about next time!
stayed with my wife her daughter and boyfriend. wonderful beach access. one block from all the action down on the boardwalk.had everything we needed.Nice and cozy.weather didn't cooperate but that was out of anyones control. still enjoyed our stay and would do it again tommorow.great place to stay wonderful balcony to sit on in the morning to enjoy a cup of coffee.
Very important to show the steep stairs, and the fact that half the beds and baths are down stairs. I slept on the sofa each night because I couldnât stay on the inside of the upstairs bed. We left a day early!
Do not judge this home by the entry. The entrance looks a bit run down though perfect for a sandy return from the beach. You are greeted with a bed room, full bath and stairs direct to the main floor, which is cute, clean and small. Very homey. Description says sleeps 6, we had 5. The couch pulled out for the 3rd bed. No microwave was unexpected though there is a toaster oven and an awesome ninja coffee machine! Overall was great, exactly what we needed for a graduation weekend and the walk to beach and pier was close by!
This place is good for adults. Lots of stairs to climb for going upstairs. Not a place to rent if you are handicap. Real close to other houses. I personally would not rent this place if i had very small kids. Very good location for walking to the beach.Very clean and tidy. Could use darker curtians for nite time. The street lights and outdoor lights shine thru the sheer curtians upstairs and downstairs. Missed not having a microwave. I would rent again.
My name is Jan. I own and live in the house. I am working in North Carolina currently so I have opened my house to share as a rental. I ask all that come to stay to take care of the house as it has my personal things in it.
