Family Vacation

We had twelve family members which included nine adults and three small children. It was a perfect location to walk to the beach. Plenty of shopping and good restaurants near by. The house had plenty of room for everyone with spacious areas for gathering and game nights. Several decks and outside seating, perfect for morning coffee and family meals. We plan on using this property again in the future.

Family Getaway

First impressions getting to the house was that it was clean and the layout was great. We had both elderly and young kids in our group and the location was just perfect. Not having to cross a busy street was ideal. It was also still close to everything plus the included golf kart, making it easy to get to everything. I would definitely recommend this place

Clean, well maintained and great floorplan

Booked last minute trip for a few days to surprise my daughter who was getting engaged at the beach. House was clean, well stocked kitchen, good floorplan and easy to book. I would recommend it. The beach was easily accessible and not crowded.

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Family vacation for six adults. Pros: Very nice having plenty of space, each person had their own bedroom and bathroom. Management was very attentive, there was an issue with the dishwasher when we arrived, we contacted them after hours, they sent someone out the next morning and the issue was resolved quickly. The private beach access is convenient and makes for easy entrance to the beach.Cons: The mattress in the master bedroom is very uncomfortable, has an awkward lean toward the head of the bed. There was one bathroom upstairs that evidently was not included in the remodel, it was dirty/stained. Doors are very dirty and could just use a good cleaning from being touched so much. Exterior could use a good cleaning as well. Overall a nice place to stay! Just prefer more cleanliness but would stay there again for location, space and beach access.

Perfect Adult Family Home

We loved this house. Everyone had their own bedroom & bathroom and there was even enough space to spread out in the rest of the house. The beach was just a short walk from our door and the golf cart and bikes were perfect for our active & adventurous family. The kitchen was well stocked and there were more than enough towels for each bathroom. To top it off, there were two washers & dryers. This helped make our daily laundry chores go by quickly so we could spend more time having fun. The hot tub/pool on the deck was perfect for our water loving 10 month granddaughter. There are also turtles in the pond that come to greet you (beg to be fed) every time you venture near the back fence. The host is very responsive & helpful. We will not hesitate to book again when we visit the area.

Would definitely book again!

Overall - the house and location is wonderful. Private beach access, lovely pond view filled with wild life, and a hot tub that came in handy when the weather was not so great. Cons: - Confusion around hot tub heating, just make sure if this is a service you want, you give the company a day's notice to have the pool heated. We could not use the hot tub the day of checkin due to chekin being at 4 pm and the office closes at 5, but were able to use.it the remainder of the stay. - Dishwasher had a foul smell/wasnt draining water properly so we just didnt use it. I did notify the property manager and I believe this will be fixed in the near future.On to the pros!!:- EXCELLENT communication with the property manager, example. We didnt have a broom in the house - they brought us a broom. - LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! Again could not be better. And the golf cart came in handy for quick grocery runs.- FULLY STACKED KITCHEN! Man this was really impressive, so many dishes, flatware and appliances. Crockpot, margarita blender, pretty much anything you need, they have it! I've never stayed in a rental with such a well stocked kitchen. - PLENTY of bed space, we housed 13 adults, 20 years old and everyone had ample room and comfort. Plenty of family space to eat and hang out together, as well as space for people to split up/do their own thing. I would definitely book this property again or work with this vacation rental company again. We had a great Mother's Day Weekend!
