Great place!

We had a wonderful time! We had two families plus friends and it was the perfect spot. We could walk to Waves, which is a convenient store. There is also a walkable restaurant or pick up seafood to go. The pool is a good size and walk to the beach. Highly recommend! Would return again!

Perfect on Beach

It’s perfect on the beach location with private pool. Clean place. Only suggestion is at least provide a couple small beach chairs and umbrella as the property doesn’t provide anything but the very basics. It states in the description but properly should reconsider since it’s literally on the beach.

Family get away

The house was great. Plenty of space, good amount of dishes, well maintained. The house is kid friendly, although could add some gates from porch to pool. The bottom stair broke going to the pool and maintenance came within 10 mins to repair. When we arrived the cleaners were still there and thankfully, because the code didn’t work at first. The house could use some updated mattresses. That’s the only negative comment from me. Overall the house met every need we had was a great space and a great place to vacation.

Great time and location!

This house had plenty of room for our group of 10. It was easy to get to and the beach-front location was perfect! The beach in front of the property was clean, only a few steps from the house and was not crowded for a peak season visit. The pool was clean and the neighbors we shared it with were very accomodating.

Family vacation

Our family had a wonderful time. Location was great. The house itself was clean on the inside, but the outside was a little rundown. There was a spindle missing at the top of the outdoor stairs. We had to put something in front of it for safety purposes, since we had small children with us. Beautiful view, and we saw dolphins almost every morning.
