Great location on the beach!

This house has a great view and is a very short distance from the sand. The interior and decking are very nice and comfortable and the kitchen is huge! My family truly enjoyed our stay here and will be coming back in the future.

Excellent location and great amenities

Three families, 6 adults and 6 kids stayed at this property for 5 nights in December and had a great time. The property is located by the beach and has all the amenities as listed online. Everything we needed was available at the property. The kids really enjoyed the hot tub and easy access to the beach. My only complaint was with the room in the lower level (2nd floor) which had no windows and was kind of muggy even with AC turned on. The floors are high and that makes someone old or with physical condition tough time to climb up. An elevator would be great add, similar to one in the adjacent property

Cleanest Home i have ever been too.

By far the cleanest property i have ever stayed at. Easy check in and out process. Beautiful views. It is exactly like the pictures. It wasnt a problem but something i didnt realize. On the second level the kichen is seperate from the bedrooms. We had 10 adults and a toddler and had more than enough room. Plenty of towels and dishware. Phenominal air conditioner. I wanted to bring the kitchen island/table home with me. We enjoyed the second level so much. Great beach access. So thankful for the outdoor shower and water hoses on every level. You need a 4 wheel drive or at the minimum front wheel drive to get in and out. We got stuck a couple times. Wonderful people helped us get out. Once we figured out that you had to come in pretty hot and get a good run we were good to go. The neighbors said it was from the trash trucks. They have really messed up the drive. The stairs..oh dear the stairs. Im 51 and they kicked my tail. But once your up the view makes up for it. The neighbors to east are the best. I highly recommend this property. We only lost power once for a few hours the last night we were there. It was the whole island. We did family pictures on the beach our last day. If you are looking for a true beach house this is it. And the sand/grass spurs do suck....just wear your shoes in the yard and you are golden. So many food options close by and the ferry was awesome. Very worth every cent. Did i mention how clean it was?

Weekend of fun

I want to thank y'all for the best wedding. This house is beautiful and has a lot of room. We could not get the music going inside the house. We just might have to save up and stay there again, or maybe a smaller place for just my husband and me.

True On the Beach Experience

If you're looking for a true in the beach vacation, look no further. Wake up to a sunrise on the deck, walk to the beach and hangout for the day, enjoy the views in the evening, watch movies at night in front of the massive outdoor bar area or while relaxing in the hot tub. Great house, fun location!
