Park upwards of 5 cars if needed. You work hard for 51 weeks of the year. Treat yourself to one of the best Wells Beach experiences conceivable. Stay right at the beach.

Great beach front rental
We really enjoyed this rental. The pictures and description were accurate. It’s a small house but does sleep 8 if 4 sleep on the pull out sofas. And the first floor layout is open and spacious. The owner was responsive with questions we had. Note that you have to bring your own sheets and towels.

Excellent house for a week on the beach
This place was amazing!!!! The house is right on the beach and far enough away from both ends (public end and the jetty end) that you essentially have a private beach right out the back slider. There are no public access lanes on either side so you don't have people coming in and going nor often setting up on the beach behind you.
Out the back slider there is both a covered deck (great when you need a little break from the sun but want to stay outside - as well as a patio off the deck which is great to lay out in without getting all sandy. Then a few steps down from that is the beach itself which was clean and again, so private.
Inside the house - great layout of the main floor - great kitchen and includes just about every utensil / kitchen need you could ever ask for. Under cabinet ice maker was handy for sure!
The beds were fine (make sure you bring your own bedding). Two bedrooms upstairs were fine for 2 couples and the front bedroom was large enough you could do a blow-up mattress (we saw one in the closet even but didn't use it). A small 1/2 bath upstairs was fine for us with a nice full bath and great shower on the first floor.
PLENTY of parking here which was a HUGE luxury on this street. We had 4 LARGE vehicles in the driveway with no issues.
EXELLENT property though for a party of 6. You can do 8 but plan on less privacy for sure.

Clean, well equipped in superb location
This property was perfect for a getaway with 3 adults. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the bathrooms are renovated. The balconies, the patio on the beach are perfect and the view and location could not be better. Could be tight for 6 people but depends on people’s needs.

Beautiful Property
The property itself was beautiful.
However, upon arrival we took 2 hours to clean up ourselves. And we had to wash sheets and comforter.
We went off season, so everything was closed but it was really beautiful and relaxing.
I would come back and rent this house again.
