Beautiful & comfortable

Dragonfly was absolutely wonderful! The house is a perfect size & the open floor plan is really nice. It was so peaceful to sit outside & listen to the ocean - view was beautiful and the furniture was very comfortable. We would definitely stay there again!!

Perfect!

This is our second stay at the Dragonfly property. The location is ideal and the layout of the home was a good fit for our eight adults and five children under 7. The two toddlers spent all their time playing on the stairs so I should have brought my baby gate. Other than that the house was a great place for vacation!

Has everything you need!

We stayed here for two nights for a team retreat. The house has everything you need. Every kitchen utensil, blankets for the sofa, several beach towels, padded loungers on the front deck and beach chairs/boogie boards downstairs. It was immaculate when we got there, the cleaning staff did a great job! Location is fantastic. The palm tree in front of the beautiful large ocean view deck was incredible. We all loved it and would highly recommend to large groups!

Amazing Thanksgiving

Dragonfly was perfect for our 2 day Thanksgiving celebration. We were a large group of 20 but everyone had their own comfortable space, and the common areas never felt crowded. It is a well-appointed house with a well-stocked kitchen. The layout is great with easy access to rooms and bathrooms. It is right on the water and we enjoyed both sunrise and sunset right on the balcony, and relaxing walks on the beach. Easy and fast communication with property manager and a smooth check in/out process. A great vacation house to have had indeed. We plan to be back, God willing. Thanks for an amazing Thanksgiving venue!

Thump up

Way way better than our expectations. Can't find a better view for sun rise from a southeast facing patio. My 85 yrs old mother had a hard time to navigate 24 steps from ground level. This is not a complaint, just a reminder for old folks or someone having knee issue.
