The house was in excellent condition and you couldn't ask for a better location. Short walk down the center driveway to the beach. Nice parking for 3 cars along side of the house. Two bedrooms downstairs with living room and bath; and, two bedrooms upstairs with kitchen and bath and awesome view of the ocean and beach. Our host was wonderful and immediately responsive to our inquiries.

Family Vacation

We had a great experience staying at this property! This is our 6th straight year staying in Wells and this was the best one yet. Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Walking out the door and onto the beach for sunrise…. Doesn’t get better than that! Check in was easy and Sophia was responsive and helpful. Would love to stay again.

Great Time on the Beach

Our family consisted of 5 adults and 4 children (9,6,3,3). The downstairs area became a playroom-tv room and that gave the adults quiet periods in the upstairs kitchen. Being on the beach side was perfect. The older kids could go back to the house without having to cross the street. Everyone had a great time and the house had everything needed. Sophia was very responsive and easy to work with.

Proximity to the huge wells beach is key for this property! Wonderful to walk 15 seconds from the front door to the sand. Host was responsive and provided ample information ahead of check in. The property was clean although on multiple days we dealt with ants all over the kitchen even though we didn't have food left out and cleaned well after each kitchen use. The property needs a little upkeep - the AC units work but are so loud during use I genuinely worried about the decibel level and my kids sleeping next to it all night. Lots of screens with holes in them letting bugs in, patio furniture crusted over with something (rust?) left us not sure we should sit on it, a window by the dining set had to be very carefully opened and closed or it would come off the track. Totally get that beach houses take a lot of abuse from the wind and weather and hope the property gets a little TLC!

Excellent Family Vacation on Wells Beach

Our family of 4 had a great week staying in Beach House #2 at Wells Beach. Central location on the beach side of Atlantic was perfect for walks to the Jetty or down to the square for ice cream. Sophia was super responsive and helpful! Overall, excellent property as described. We wish our friends could have made it - maybe next time!

A very nice week

We were in house number 2 which is just a minute's walk from the beach. We encountered a few minor issues with the coffee maker and the grill not working that the host dealt with the same day that we let her know about it which was helpful. We all had a memorable vacation.

This is a really great location even though you are the second house of a 2-house oceanfront lot. It takes less than 30 seconds to walk onto the sand! House is kept in great shape and clean and the owner Sophie is very easy to communicate with and quite responsive.

Great beach getaway!

We had a wonderful stay at Sophia's Wells Beach house! The home was extremely clean, had everything we needed and the ability to see the beach, hear the waves and get our toes in the sand in just steps was exactly what we were hoping for. The AC worked on warm nights and the heat worked great on the cooler nights - and the two separate living areas was an added benefits with two little ones running around. The beach is right there but there are also great little trails to explore close by too. Thanks Sophia - great property and appreciate your prompt communication throughout our stay!
