This house was perfect for our family. We had four couples and three kids and we had everything we needed. It’s right across the street from the beach and the community pool is only a few steps from the front door. We are already planning our next trip and we’ll definitely book this house again.

Great vacation spot

We had a wonderful time at this stay! Check in went smoothly and even sent us goodies our first night, such a wonderful gesture! Plenty of space for all 15 of us, very large bedrooms in the main house. Quick walk to the beach and the pool was steps from the front door! We enjoyed pickle ball, basketball and volleyball courts daily. Would stay here again, thank you!

Absolutely Perfect

This was our first family vacation with our 4 kiddos and it was absolutely perfect. The home was great for our needs and the walk to the beach was easy. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked well with the basic necessities. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of pillows to pick from. We are so glad we chose this place and would certainly stay again!

Squeeze the Day!

Squeeze the Day! was our family theme for the week and this property exemplified the wonderful experience we had! It was so spacious, clean, offered easy access to the beach, pool, tennis court, and more. It allowed our family to experience so much togetherness in the main family room while offering each family their own space when they wanted some alone time. I highly recommend it!

We were a family of eight adults and four children. Her house was lovely and very clean. I love that the beach towels were provided, which meant a lot less packing for us. The owner was very easy to reach when I had a question and her responses were quick. We would definitely rent again..

Great Family Vacation spot!

We had the best time on our family vacation! We had 7 adults and 6 kids and this house was perfect for all of us. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable for all. The kitchen/living room space was perfect for spending time together for meals and hangout time. The pool was right across from the house which made it so easy to access with kids. And the beach walk was super easy, truly a 3 minute walk. The beach was beautiful and the hosts were Super helpful and had quick responses when we needed anything. I would highly recommend this spot for your next vacation and we hope to come back another time!

Wonderful place

The house was very clean, comfortable, and in a great location. The swimming pool and tennis courts are right across the street, and the beach is a short walk away. The kitchen is well supplied with everything you need for cooking, including a crock pot and food processor. The cabinets were labeled so that things were easy to find. The house is well maintained and in good working order. The hosts were very communicative and easy to reach when necessary.

Great week with family

This house was true to the VRBO listing. Located a few steps from the beach, sleeping arrangements and other aspects of the house were accurate and very comfortable for our family of 11. One minor adjustment to description would help set expectations for renters - the downstairs apartment has no internal access to the rest of the house. Otherwise, wonderful property for a great week at the beach!

2nd year we've stayed in this beautiful house. Open kitchen & living area makes it easy to come together & prepare meals, also grilling out back & playing cornhole.

Excellent Beach Home for Family Vacation, Girl's Get Away, etc.

Great location - close to beach. The amenities of having a pool and volleyball was extra. The home was more than comfortable for our Girl's Get-Away. Everyone had their space. The home was very clean, spacious, modern, well-decorated. The luxurious kitchen provided us the ability to cook while reconnecting. We could not have imagined a better home or location for an amazing home away from home. An excellent find!!!

Great family vacation!

This is such a beautiful house and so clean. Everything that was pictured in the rental description was exactly how I envisioned it to be and then some! Close walk to the beach, walking distance to restaurants, and across the street from the community pool. Only issue we had was lighting issues but I messaged owner and she personally called me and maintenance came next day to check and was fixed. We were a family of 13 which consisted of 3 families. One of those families enjoyed the apartment but just wished there was internal access from the apartment to the main house. Really enjoyed the beach chairs and two beach wagons. They came in handy. Will definitely stay here again when we travel with the whole family.

We had a great time

As with most everything, location is everything. This unit is located just a short block from the beach. Easy to walk to, easy to walk back if you forget something or run out of drinks. Even better is that this unit is located some distance from the city center, so you are out of the high traffic area. The unit is well set up. Yes, there are stairs, however that was no big deal to our group. Each bedroom had its own bathroom, the kitchen was very well set up, the living room had ample of room for our group of 9. All in all, this is a very nice place to stay. Bring your family and or friends and plenty of sunscreen. Enjoy!
