Whether it be enjoying a cold drink on the over-sized patio or a day at the beach with your toes in the water, everyone will find their own way to spend their time away.

    Great lil vacay
    Clean, well maintained, useful and convenient amenities. I’d like to suggest a shower chair in at least one bathroom for safety with those with poor mobility or balance issues. Beds were very uncomfortable, I’d suggest memory foam toppers or something. Our rest was poor we all woke up hurting. The location was perfect, house was pretty clean with the exception of dog fur, chew toys and dust under couch. Overall I’d definitely rent again if bed issue is addressed.

    Unfortunately, upon arrival, the home was not thoroughly cleaned. In fact, only 1 of the 4 beds were made. We couldn't locate sheets to make the beds. The toilet had to be fixed. I also had to sweep and mop the floor, wipe down the couches, and clean the refrigerator upon arrival. One of the mattresses was completely sunken in. Even with all of that, we were going to make the best of it and stay. Until I woke up and 5:00 am with a bed bug bite. The bed bug was in fact crawling on me and I killed it with my hand, only to have my hand full of blood. This property should not even be listed with the cleanliness issues it's having. Additionally, there were flying ants in the kitchen. Do not recommend it.

    Perfect setting
    Best spot for my beach experience. I’m close enough to walk. I can see the water from the couch. The front porch is my favorite view to sit outside. This house isn’t too close to another house either. This is my second time staying at this house.

    Great location. No complaint with the beds. Some of the dishes were dirty, so we had to clean them before using. An ashtray on the deck was full of cigarette butts. There was no laundry detergent, so we had to go to The Big Store for that. The bathrooms have tiny shampoo/conditioner like a hotel...not a fan. There was also tiny bar soap...once again, not a fan. Nothing serious. Those were just a few minor details that the manager should address. Other than that, I would recommend it to others.

    The location was perfect! Loved the views but very disappointed with a couple things -there is a roach infestation in the home, they were all in the kitchen and also in a room crawling the walls!!! Pretty disgusting waking up to roaches, specially in the kitchen we had to throw out a couple things due to the issue! Needs to get taken care of ASAP - the cleanliness wasn’t the best, the restrooms were a bit dirty - the bedrooms have bad mattresses some are too hard and others sink in the middle.

    Great Stay
    The property was just as expected, as detailed in the listing! We were pleasantly surprised that a Keurig had been added to the kitchen appliances! When we arrived, the house was clean and cool! The deck is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee or an afternoon cocktail. You can hear the relaxing sound of the surf, as well as the beautiful view, any time of day! The downstairs area is super nice and spacious for a relaxing cookout, or just sitting and chatting with friends/family! We couldn’t seem to get the DirectTV to work, so I made a call to the property manager, and within 15, a very nice fella (I forgot his name) arrived and showed us how to access it! So FYI, on the TV’s menu, don’t choose “satellite “, choose “cable” that’s where whomever programmed the TV put it! We would most definitely stay here again, and we’ve already recommended the property to a couple of friends! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! ***The guest room bath needs a stopper for the tub. My grand baby had to take his baths in the master bathroom, because there was no way to plug up the drain. I would also suggest the addition of a television to the master. Not a deal breaker of course, just a suggestion.
