Beach Time on 5th

We had a wonderful time in Long Beach! This is our second time staying at BeachTime on 5th and it is the perfect house for our family! We especially love the fenced yard for our dog, the game room, and how close this house is to both the beach and the town! There's almost too much to do as we got in 30,000+ steps a day, played games, watched movies, ate lots of amazing homecooked meals around the big family table. We even barbecued and had smores at the fire pit when it was 42 degrees outside. We also got to see quite a few deer this time. Oh and got lots of use out of the bikes and even the sand toys in the garage!

Our stay at Weather Beach was wonderful! The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was stocked perfectly and plenty of bedding to keep us warm. And the bonus was having the garage set up with pool, Foosball and air hockey. We had a couple of days inside and had plenty to keep us all entertained. And the short walk to the beach was fantastic. My husband even commented that he'd love to repeat the trip exactly as we did it including the house. Thanks!!

Manager's Response

This house had something for everyone! The owners put extra thought into making this vacation house! They had a variety of toys, games, sand toys, bikes with helmets, air hockey table, pool table, ect. The kitchen was well stocked with any cooking utensils needed. If you needed an extra towel or blanket no need to worry those were provided too.

The downside was some general maintenance- both upstairs showers were missing door handles on the inside of the shower doors, the frig filter needs to be replaced so water would just trickle out.

Manager's Response

Had a great time in Long Beach. The house was great. Having the finished basement, with all the games, was so much fun. The fenced in yard for the dogs was great. However, the grill needs to be looked at. The starter does not work correctly and is quite dangerous. Also, that the recycling is not included is ridiculous. We took our recycling to the center, but by not including this in the cleaning of the house, you are encouraging people to put their recycling in the trash.

Manager's Response

This was our second time staying at this house and it was as great as the first time. Great location, view of the ocean and close walk. Had all the things we needed in the house and kitchen. The kids loved the downstairs with all the toys and games supplied and the game room with pool and other table games was a blast while enjoying the big screen TV. We enjoyed the local shops and of course the Cottage Bakery! The staff was very kind and helpful with all our needs and questions. We will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful time at this rental. We have people from 2yr to 56yr old and there was plenty to do when a storm rolled in. The place has a game room and the kids had a ps3 and lots of toys to play with. We also had our 2 dogs with us. The home has a fully fenced yard so there was plenty of room for them to run. The beach is a short walk away and the city center is as well. Dabra (sp?)was helpful and great to work with when making our plans to stay. Thank you Bloomer Estates.

Wonderful location for beach and town. Loved all the added amenities for a busy family. Everyone was satisfied from age 2 to 82!

Manager's Response

Really nice layout, well appointed, super comfortable, overall a great vacation.

Everything was great.Enjoyed the game room.Lots of space for everyone throughout the house. All the emenities we needed. The only downside was No propane in the Oceanside firepit on the deck. Was on for very short time first night.

Perfect location to enjoy both the town and the beach, easy reservations and good instructions on how to get in the home. Just pack up and go

Manager's Response

We had everyone from grandma and grandpa down to our little one and a half year old and every one of us were as comfortable as can be. It was our first time renting a house and it was the best decision by far. All the comforts and convenience of being at home but with the amazing location and beach access of being on vacation. The manager of the rental was very easy to contact with any questions. The home had everything you could need and more! My favorite part was the bedroom with attached playroom for the kids. It gave the kids their own space which gave the adults their own space to visit, which creates a successful vacation for this stay at home mom. I’d go back in an instant.

Manager's Response

We could not have been happier! With the view, 5-minute walk to the beach, and close proximity to downtown, the location is perfect. The house is immaculately clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. Finally, the large, fended, yard was ideal for our little beagle.

Manager's Response

We had the most wonderful time at this home with our kids The house was very clean and very well stocked. We could see the ocean from our balcony and hear the roar of the waves breaking. The weather was extremely nice and everything just had a touch of coziness to it’s charm. I gave it five stars even though the outdoor gas fireplace didn’t work. Was disappointed in that! I would highly recommend this home, it was very nice and especially for families!!!

Manager's Response

It wasn’t just a lovely property, but Kathy Stoeff and the Bloomers Properties were so easy to work with and any and all communication was dealt with immediately.
We feel very fortunate to have our first experience staying in Long Beach go so well. Bloomers has something for everyone all up and down the Peninsula.

Manager's Response

This is our second stay in a Bloomer Estates rental and again it was a fantastic experience. The property manager is very quick to respond, easy to reach, and will do everything possible to meet your needs. And Bloomer Estates clearly takes pride in the cleanliness of their rentals. This home is amazing. I can't say enough good things about it. Gorgeous dcor, nicely appointed with everything you need, peek a boo view of the ocean, easy to walk to town or beach, fenced yard, large deck. I'm already planning my next trip to this property. Thank you for a wonderful weekend!

Manager's Response

Wonderful home with a great open-concept plus great views of the ocean. Short walk to the beach. Great stay!

Manager's Response

House was immaculate, had everything we needed, management staff wonderful to deal with. Fantastic experience!!

Manager's Response

Perfect layout and location, all amenities provided. Will return to this property every time we visit Long Beach. This was our second stay.

Manager's Response

This is a perfect rental for families with kids and pets. The house is well stocked with everything needed. The yard is fenced and kids will love the amenities provided. The house is in an ideal location, a short walk to downtown, the beach and the Discovery trail. The Bloomer Estates Management team are great to deal with. We will definitely book with them in the future.

Manager's Response

Everything was as advertised. A very nice home with all the bells and whistles. And a lot of little extras. Ocean view and next to town. We had a great time and will likely be back. Our time there could not have been better. Thank you so much!

Manager's Response

This was her first time for any of us doing an Airbnb . Long Beach was halfway point for all of us to meet and we were unsure what to expect. Let me tell you we were extremely impressed and delighted The house had everything you would ever need! It was like coming to your own home! We all had a great time and now are going to make this a yearly event. I really can NOT explains enough how much we enjoyed ourselfs!

This was the second time I have stayed at this house for the annual rod run and it did not disappoint. 5th street is a great location with a short walk to town or to the beach. I found the home to be well equipped and ready for our stay. I think the home was actually cleaner then it was the first time I stayed. All of the neighbors were friendly and we felt very welcome and I know that’s not always the case with rental homes.

Our family of 6 stayed here for 4 nights - it was the perfect place for some great family time! We spent lots of time on the beach, watched movies, cooked, did a puzzle, played in the games room, rode the bikes, walked to main street and wandered through the shops. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we could have needed.

Manager's Response

Everything was perfect. We all enjoyed our stay.

Beach Time gave us the perfect vacation experience. I rented the house for myself and three grown children, plus any significant others. Only one SO came, so 5 of us instead of 7. House was very nice, beds were comfortable, location was perfect. We walked or ran the Discovery Trail every day and we walked to town at least twice a day. The beach was just over the dunes and even though we had 3 cars, we hardly used them. Everything was in working order and no complaints. Good first experience with VRBO.

House was fantastic. My younger son was in heaven with all the kids toys downstairs and it made entertaining the littles much easier. My older son and husband took the bikes out for a spin and had a blast. My parents and family raved about what a great place I found and there was plenty of room for everyone to get together for the family meal. Mom mentioned it was the best rental house she has ever stayed at. We loved the quick walk to the beach every day. Thank you for making our vacation wonderful!

We love everything about Beach Time! The location is perfect: quiet and off the beaten path, but still only a few minutes away from the beachto the westand downtownto the southeast.
You can see the water from the mail floor, and hear the surf. There is a huge, fenced yard, which was perfect for our dog, and for badminton.
There is plenty of room to congregate, eat, and watch movies in the main room, and on the decks outside. And, the bedrooms are comfortable and wonderful for time alone, and a good nights sleep.
We are already planning our 2019 Memorial Day weekend at Beach Time!

We have stayed in this house before and loved it. It is close to town and in view of the beach. Three couples stayed comfortably and there was room for more. Three bathrooms is a plus.
We only ate out once but Castaways chowder is definitely one of the best!
We are already planning on staying here again.

Manager's Response

We had so much fun.family of 5, plenty of room, house was VERY well stocked! Beds were comfy and the kids loved the downstairs. Thanks for another awesome experience Bloomer Rentals!

Manager's Response

What a great experience this was. Its as if the owners of the house themselves stay in vacation rentals and know what is lacking and have made up for it. I have stayed in large houses where one is allotted one bath towel and one washcloth per person. Not Beach House on 5th. They have everything! The three bathrooms are fully stocked with lovely towels and supplies including soap, shampoo and conditioner. So many little details were thought of to make the experience like home.

Refreshingly, there are three actual bedrooms with comfortable queen beds in all rooms, nice bed linens, extra pillows and blankets. Three couples could comfortably stay in this house (and send the kids downstairs). There is a whole room downstairs with bunkbeds, two couches, a TV. The garage has a lot of fun stuff in it including bikes that actually work. We took two of the beach bikes onto the beach and didnt even have to put air in the tires. Amazing. Kids bikes as well.

Perhaps even more exciting than the three adult bedrooms was the huge fenced yard for the dogs. Wow. There is an outside hose we used to rinse off the sand from the dogs after a beach walk. The house is so nicely taken care of and so clean, of course we wanted to keep it that way.

The kitchen was well stocked and the flatware was not the small cheapo bendy type. We usually bring the large soup pots that we will use, but there was no need as so many large pots and pans were supplied. This would be a great house for Thanksgiving (and any family reunion). The location near the dead end of the street close to the beach path was perfect.

Bloomer estates people were so helpful and responsive to any question I had. Communication was quick, easy and pleasant. I will def use Bloomer on my next trip to the beach.

Always love the beach house. And the people at Bloomer Estates are so helpful.

Manager's Response

The house was located close enough to town you could walk and ride the provided bikes to town with no problem, yet just far enough away from town you didnt feel like you were in town. The beach was a short walk down the road and thru the private path. The provided bikes were lots of fun for the whole family. Would definitely stay here again!

Very nice place to stay, the location could not have been better. we walked, jogged and cycled the Discovery path and town. Walked to the Greatest Bakery we have ever been to (Cottage Bakery) a real draw for us each trip to Long Beach.

Manager's Response

Our family had a very enjoyable stay. One suggestion we would have would be to have information as to when garbage is picked up, as when we arrived on Saturday the previous guests did not recycle and the garbage can was 90 % full. We found out it would be 3 days before pickup. Your cleanup crew might take this into consideration so new renters coming in have adequate space for garbage.

Manager's Response

With perfect weather and a beautiful, quiet setting, 2 families from Seattle and one from Cincinnati spent a week in absolute bliss. So often these kinds of get-togethers result in the sad replay of old hurtful patterns but for us, it was a fresh new chapter. After many years apart we were able to experience who we've become, and guess what? We like us! The setting had everything to do with it. The constant flow of ocean air. The sunsets. The firepit. Loads of space and activities. The cleanest place we've ever been. A fenced yard and nice neighbors. We all miss it. We all wish we were still there. We all hope we can do it again. Many, many thanks for sharing this magical bit of heaven on earth.

Manager's Response

my kids, grand-kids, great-grand-kids, friends and cousins all gather in Long Beach every year for the week of July 4th. We love the beach and the Beach Time on 5th house is perfect for our barbecues and visiting. We are close to the beach and can watch the fireworks from the deck. Love it here.

Manager's Response

It was all around a wonderful experience and will definitely be renting from here again. Everything was perfect. The only thing I recommend is spraying the back yard for mosquito. (They were pretty bad in the back yard). Adding a pool or hot tub to this residence would make the trip absolutely perfect however I was very happy and my family had a great time!!

Manager's Response

Great time with family. Clean well stocked house close to the beach

This was a nicely located house to beach and town. We were happy to find a house that accepted dogs so our animal/human family could be together on vacation. I would stay at this place again in the future.

Third time we have stayed in this very well maintained house and we will do it again. With 3 bedrooms, 3 baths a good kitchen and living room it is more than adequate for 6 adults.

This was our first VRBO experience. The house was perfect: clean, well equipped and great location. We used the bikes in the garage to ride along the beach.

Manager's Response

The home was clean and beautiful. It was located in town but off the main road to provide privacy and very close to a beach access path. It had all we needed to simply relax and take in the view of the ocean from the deck. We went in the off season which was even more enjoyable and quiet. We highly recommend a stay here for anyone wanting to get away.

Manager's Response

We booked this house for a family get together of 7 adults. We were extremely pleased with this house. It is equipped with everything we could think of including beach cruiser bicycles! This house has pretty nice appliance, pots & pans, dishes,etc. The bedrooms were nice although a couple were small but adequate. Bedding was all very nice and plenty of towels for everyone. Having the 3 full baths was perfect! This property was exactly as described and short walk to downtown and the beach. I would definitely stay here again.

Manager's Response

Great. Wonderful house.

Manager's Response

A very enjoyable stay! The house was very clean and well maintained. The location was perfect for walking into town or the beach. The new deck was very inviting! Love the benches at the lower fire pit too!

Manager's Response

This property exceeded our expectations with respects to location and amenities.

Manager's Response

Great location. The house was comfortable and clean. Nice fenced back yard. Kitchen is stocked well and very user friendly. The dog next door barked when we went outside but other than that it was so quiet you could hear the ocean and the seagulls.

Manager's Response

We arrived Friday evening to a lovely surprise as we opened the front door we had a great kitchen, eating area and sitting area for the family. The house had every amenity you could ask for which made meal preparation great. The view from the living room and the deck of the water is just so relaxing along with watching those beautiful sunsets. The kids enjoyed the bikes provided along with the beach toys.

our family enjoys meeting every year at the beach for a few days and renting the house is perfect for us. Only disappointed because we were not able to reserve the same house for the same dates next year. Boo, Hiss.

The house was large enough to accommodate our 3 family visit. The grandchildren loved the playroom, stairs, and it was close enough for them to walk to the beach without driving or carrying them. They loved the fire pit at night to watch and tell stories. Oh, and let's not forget the must do (SMORES ROUTINE)! We adults enjoyed the view of the breakers at our beach house. The roominess to spread out the children and family visitors.

This house was perfect for our weekend beach trip with the kids and friends. It had everything we needed to cook, play and relax. The downstairs was perfect for the kids to play while the adults cooked and visited upstairs. House was very clean, organized and felt very comfortable. We plan to stay here again.

Great long weekend. Very nice, clean, comfortable home.

Manager's Response

2nd time at this house, love the layout. Kids had fun downstairs and everyone was able to be together upstairs. When cooking still able to talk to others. Had all the kitchen appliances and dishes needed. Beds very comfy.

Manager's Response

We stayed in Long Beach during the week of Christmas in 2015. The house was in great shape. We typically prefer to rent homes when we travel rather than stay in hotels, and compared to other homes I've stayed in, this house was in fantastic shape. In particular, we felt like the house was very well equipped with high quality utensils and cookware. We made a Christmas dinner in the house, and we had everything we needed for a successful dinner. Also, there were tons of toys and games down in the lower level which was fantastic for the kids. The garage also had bikes, balls, and beach toys which was a huge plus. All the TV's, appliances, etc. worked well and the proximity to the beach was great. Because the weather wasn't fantastic during our stay, we spent a lot of time in the house, and it exceeded our expectations.

It was a great find. Very well stocked home with a comfy atmosphere. Good sized bedrooms. Only critiques were that it was a bit further walk to ocean than we thought, and the hot water in master bathroom shower doesn't get all that hot.

Overall, we were pretty happy with the house, and it served the needs of our family of 6. It is in need of some maintenance though, even some basic safety items. There should be more smoke detectors in the house, especially in the living area. Not all of the kitchen lights worked, and the windows in the master bedroom were too narrow to allow for escape in case of fire. On the comfort side, the house provided just about everything we needed for cooking and serving - nicely stocked kitchen. The furniture and beds were comfortable and clean, and the beach-themed dcor was very warm and friendly.

We stayed at Beach Time on 5th during the 2015 Kite Festival. The home was fully stocked with all amenities including lots of toys for kids downstairs. It also has nice flat screens upstairs, downstairs, and in the master bedroom, all with satellite cable. The home's wi-fi and Internet were reliable and fast. We didn't utilize the deck or outdoor seating areas, but they are very nice and would be great for outdoor dining and enjoying the sunset. The location is excellent. You are a few minutes walk from the paved ocean front trail that takes you back to the main beach boardwalk, and heading east from the home you can get to the main 'strip' of Long Beach in about 5 minutes. During the kite festival we could see kites from the kitchen and family room windows. Definitely a quality rental property that I would recommend to others.

House was in very good condition, great location next to beach and Discovery trail and a 5 minute walk to the heart of long beach. I recommend it, loved the bikes!

Beach Time on 5th is one of the best homes we have rented in Long Beach. A very well furnished home, plus very comfortable.

We met my mom and sister at the house with our kids. It was great to see the basement well equipped with toys and a play station with games and movies to entertain our 10 year old and the little ones as well. The bikes in the garage were also a welcome suprise.
The house was nicely stocked with kitchen supplies and the shampoo dispensers in the bathrooms were a nice feature.
It would have been nice if there were a few throw blankets in the house for those chilly coastal nights hanging on the deck or in the living room. While the yard in the property was well kept, the vacant lot next door had a ton of trash laying around and the deck looked right out over it.
The location of the house was perfect. The walk over to the beach was close and a nice little path, and the walk into town was only a few blocks as well.
All in all it was a great trip and if we ever head that way again, this house would be the first place I would try to reserve.
