The house was just great, with an amazing view. It was very clean, and was perfect for us. I will definitely be coming back with friends again, and next time I would love for my family to stay in the house
This property has a beautiful view. I’m not sure if it has been renovated recently but it was very bare. There were no rugs and sand on the floor was a big problem.

Somewhat disappointing. Weather cooler and windy . Problems with the internet . Some pest problems . Couch and sheets need to be changed .
Good view of bay. Kitchen was equipped with enough to get by if cooking. Pillows were ok but not my favorite. TV was not good. No cable just local stuff.

Stay at Bienvenue
Location is nice. House was clean. House has BASIC essentials. Has pots and pans, silverware, dishes, etc. Prepare to bring everything else. No salt and pepper, etc. we were given one trash bag and one roll of TP. There were pods for the DW, one dish towel, no dish soap. Not what we usually have experienced.

I enjoyed staying at Bienvenue, it was wonderful sitting out on the dock and watching the dolphins. I love that you were able to hear the ocean and it was just a short walk to the beach. The neighborhood was quiet and very peaceful. I never did figured out how to use the TV, not sure if there was cable or not , because it never came on. I'm glad I went to the dollar store , there were very limited paper products and no seasonings , salt and pepper. I think the beds could use an update, they were not very comfortable. Thank you for sharing your place .

Nice place but small. Glad that the shower has been updated. Need better lighting in upstairs bathroom and mirrors are all too low for someone tall. Had problems with TV connection and called property management about it. They said they would call back but never did which was disappointing.

We had an amazing stay! Perfect for just the two of us and our furry kiddo. Bienvenue had everything we needed to enjoy our vacay. Weather was amazing! My husband loved fishing off the pier! The dolphins liked showing off while would sit on the deck. We will definitely be back!

Great 2 weeks, sun, sun, sun. Beach multiple times lots of biking (one 26 miler) golf and of course the seafood. Lots of shrimp and oysters. The house was a pleasure to come back to after our daily adventures. Sitting out on the deck watching the fish jump and the dolphins play while reading our books was just so relaxing. Hated to leave but we'll be back!!!

Reviewer Comments:
For our first time staying on the bay side, we were impressed with the Openess of the house; amazing view from the bay windows; air conditioning was incredible even though it was the hottest days of summer -- house was refreshingly cool! Sunsets were gorgeus. Enough space for 4 adults comfortably but the loft A/C needs replaced if someone was staying on that level (rusted unit). A bench or chairs on the dock would be a nice addition. Outdoor furniture was rusty too and should be replaced.

This was the second time we have stayed at Bienvenue. The views are great with beautiful sunsets. It is so relaxing and peaceful! The house needs a little TLC but overall a very nice experience.
If you are looking for a place to fish, go to the beach, ride bikes and just have peace and quiet this is the the place to stay! This place was just what my family needed! We hope to go back to visit the little bit of heaven cottage on the bay soon!

My wife and I saved all year for this vacation, and it was not cleaned right. The Tv's did not work right. went to the office talked to the manager and they tried to fix their mistake, but the damage was already done. We left a couple of days early we had enough. Besides all of that fishing was great and eating good weather was fantastic. The house was in a great location looks very nice on the outside. They need to teach the cleaning company how to clean and fix the TV's

Bienvenue
It’s basic as it comes , bed and towels were washed but windows was filthy and the view is what sells this place if you don’t mind bay side . House is just older and needs attention, would I stay here again yes but not for 1600+ dollars for a week . I’d go somewhere else first .
