The property and the location were great, but the management company you have to go through once you book the house is a bit much. I had to sign roughly 6 documents, send a copy of my drivers license to them and download an app to check in. If I didn’t sign the forms quick enough for them, they were calling and emailing me. Besides that, the house was great. Beautiful location.

This house was the perfect little get away. My family and I had a blast and being that close to the water was amazing. We loved every minute of our stay and can't wait to come back and make more lifelong memories!

Spring break at the beach

We loved this house that was directly on the beach. The grandkids could freely run to the beach. The deck gave a view of the whole coastline. This was wonderful for a morning break. The house had three bedrooms which worked perfectly for our group. The kitchen was large and we made most of our meals there. We definitely would like to go back.

Good place for a family celebration

Beryl blew enough sand up to the house that we had to park on the roadway and walk a bit with our things. Debris on the beach was likely due to Beryl as well. House was nicely laid out w a bedroom downstairs and two upstairs. Fans,and conditioning worked well. Great location!! No idea what the port key was for.

Right on the beach

We really loved this house! Being right on the beach was exactly what we wanted. The living room was comfy for the times we just wanted to chill in front of the TV. Our younger daughters loved the upstairs bedroom. The kitchen was the perfect size and functionality. The only drawback for us was the master bedroom upstairs didn't cool as we would have liked. If the king and queen rooms were switched that would be more preferable for us. We would still consider staying in this house again.

Retired group of friends from highschool

I did not rate a 5 on the check in as we weren’t given the correct code on the door for check in but a phone call quickly rectified the situation. Had a sink that didn’t drain and someone was sent promptly to fix. Adequate towels for 6 women, beds were comfy but a little short on the toilet paper for 6 women staying 5 days ( we bought more and paper towels as well). Great location and view, house was clean, and pictures were accurate. We enjoyed our stay thoroughly!

Rooms were immaculate, house as described very roomy and comfortable. Needed a salt shaker (with salt) and sharper knives and potatoe peeler - OTHER THAN THAT- loved it !!! Talk about walk out back door and beach literally in the backyard the kids were occupied the entire time at the beach the view from deck are postcard perfect and the breeze was great. Loved it and hosts using the app was new needed a little help but got all info quickly. Loved the windows and the washer dryer and fully loaded kitchen. Amazing vacation trip spot! 9.5 outta 10. Bring your own mosquito spray !!!! Those things were huge and not playing the time we came. That’s it but perfect other than that !
