Very Nice House

I rented this for my mother’s 60th birthday so all of her 13 kids, their spouses and her grandkids could all be under the same roof and it housed all 33 of us! The beach really is right there and they have the facilities (like two fridges, two dishes, a custom large table) to house a large group!

The kids loved their very own mini bedrooms. Everything was clean, with the exception of the stairs leading to the second story were sticky. We were not able to use the pool as it isn’t heated, but I’m sure that would have been a hit if so. Overall this is a great property for a large group, and the views are incredible.

Awesome House and Location

My family rented the house for Thanksgiving. The space inside was perfect for all of us. The proximity to the beach was so helpful. It was fun for all ages! The only thing we would change would be different gate latches around the pool. The gates just had regular latches, not the ones that are above the gate, making them kid-proof.

Plenty of parking and space for beach gear. Both the porch and pool area were nice spots to gather in the morning and evenings. Suggestions from our group would be a few more barstools at the Tiki Hut and some tables for the pool area. Overall a great rental, no issues with maintenance, plenty of pots/pans, plates, glasses, etc. for our group of 29.

Perfect House for Our Beach Wedding

We got married on the beach directly across from the house and then had dinner catered underneath the house after sunset. The backyard was perfect for the reception with the built-in bar and patio next to the pool for dancing. We rented tables & chairs from Jodi which was extremely convenient. Jodi was very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. Our bridal party and family stayed at the house with us and everyone agreed that the house and the view of the Gulf was amazing. We can’t wait to go back!
