Our family had such a great stay! We loved the beach house, and it was such a short walk to the beach. The property manager was very prompt and great to work with. We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed the comfort of this very clean townhouse with great decorations. They have definitely thought about all details providing beach chairs and toys for use, games, well stocked kitchen, extra bath towels, etc. Owners were very prompt with communication. Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did!

Absolutely loved our stay from arrival to departure. Everything about Amber’s beach house was amazing! Location is an easy walk to the beach. One thing to keep in mind about Gulf Winds East is they do not allow tents or canopies on the private beach. As for the condo, it was exactly as advertised. Clean and absolutely beautiful! Amber was a wonderful hostess and replied immediately when I messaged about anything. We are excited to plan our trip for next year!

This place is absolutely amazing! Its exactly as advertised and in a perfect location. The beach is right across the street and we had a very short walk to several restaurants including Pompano Joes, Kenny Ds, and Captain Daves. The owner had thought of everything! Dhe even had a toddler rail for the bottom bunk that you could add on. I would recommend this to anyone. We will definitely be back!

Our family would highly recommend this home! Our hosts were so kind...they let us check in a little early which allowed our grandchildren to take their naps! The home was super clean and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and sand toys for the children. The hosts have thought of everything! We had beach chairs, beach wagon to carry things in and well equipped kitchen...just a wonderful experience! Though we had some rain on this vacation...the home and hosts were rays of sunshine!

This condo was the perfect place for our family vacation. Amber was so kind and was quick to respond to any need that we had. She also allowed us to check in early which was a big blessing traveling with 2 little ones! The home was clean and perfect for a family of 6! My daughter loved sleeping on the top bunk! A few suggestions would be having a removable toddler safety rail for the bottom bunk and having some general spices in the kitchen. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Eric and Robin have outdone themselves with this property! Located just a two minute walk from the beach it had everything we needed. A closet of beach equipment with chairs and a wagon that we took to the beach everyday. They provided makeup wipes, laundry detergent, a first aid kit, dishwasher pods and really anything else you could need. The whole place is completely updated and sparkling clean! The beach decor made it such a great home away from home. Upon our arrival we were surprised to find a basket of snacks and even a bottle of champagne! The area is great located just down the street from some great dining options. All in all probably the best VRBO I have stayed in. We can’t wait to come back and stay for a longer trip soon!

From start to finish our hosts went so far beyond expectations! We were celebrating my little sister’s baby shower for the weekend. Robin (the hostess) even went as far to leave a gift for her baby when we arrived !!! The property itself was to die for with the most beautiful and modern beach themed decor. The closet outback stocked with all the beach gear (chairs, a wagon, umbrella and beach games) was so amazing. You literally can come here and relax and not worry about a thing. Every detail was meticulously thought out for our enjoyment and comfort. The beds and all the linens were high end and super comfy. I literally never want to go anywhere else but here for vacation again. Robin checked in with us multiple times to make sure things were going great and to offer suggestions of local offerings. You will not find anything better than this rental in my opinion. I can’t think of a single thing that could have made our weekend better or more special. We will be returning often and we are so grateful!

We had the best time staying here. The beach was only a 2 minute walk! The condo was clean, updated and spacious. Amber was so kind and helpful. We will definitely be back!

We stayed the week of Thanksgiving and I can’t say enough about how wonderful everything was! The owner allowed early check in without us even asking, which was much needed after a long drive. Condo was very clean and had absolutely everything we needed, the owner even had storage containers for left overs, which I thought was great. We stay in the general area each year so we were familiar with the location, but for those who aren’t the beach is a very short walk away. We enjoyed that the complex was smaller and not too crowed for swimming or enjoying the private beach. The condo was perfect for our family of 6 and I highly recommend.

The property was great, with an easy walk to the beach. Beach was not crowded since it is private to the property. House was clean and nice with all the necessities to enjoy a stay. Plenty of beach toys and accessories. Very spacious and a great balcony to enjoy some peace and quite with a little bit of nature.

Robin's place was absolutely perfect for our couples trip. The condo was beautifully updated and had the perfect amount of space for us. We loved the short walk to the beach, restaurants and pool. We met a few of the lovely neighbors that owned condos there as well which was a bonus!

We absolutely loved our time at this condo. We were welcomed with a thoughtful welcome basket of treats and wine. The unit, bed linens, and towels were impeccably clean and everything was exactly as described and advertised in the pictures. We were impressed with the spaciousness of each room. The wagon, extra chairs, beach toys, and rafts were such a bonus! The hosts were responsive and thoughtful. We would love to return!

Exceptionally clean. Easy access and entry. Just as it appears in photos. Had everything we needed plus more. Great location. Smaller complex so more private. Two minute walk to gated beach entry. Owners very responsive. Excellent overall stay.

We had 2 families come down & stay a week here. The 2 master suites upstairs is PERFECT! We loved everything about our trip! Easy & great communication with owners. They were so nice & checked on us throughout the week. They literally have everything you could need for a home & at the beach! Every kitchen gadget, every beach toy! We were so thankful for that. A true money saver! We were steps away from the pool & the beach was an easy 3 minute walk! The outdoor showers located throughout were a lifesaver! We couldn’t stop talking about how perfect & amazing this place & unit was. We are already talking about when we can come back & bring more friends down to get a unit close by! Thank you for the amazing accommodations.

The stay was great. The owners checked in through out the stay to make sure we didn’t have any questions! The condo was super cute and love having the 3 full baths. They provided everything you need for a weeks stay. We just wish the location was a little better. Closer to food and attractions, but that’s minor stuff. We would recommend this condo to anyone!!!

From the moment we got in Miramar I was in love with the place but stepping in to the house just made it all so much better.. it’s beautiful! Clean and homey and comfortable.. and just a short walk to the beach! The private beach is awesome.. we were close to the pool which is a plus! And close to everything!! I loved being able to sit outside on a porch on each side of the house. Having the beach supplies was very helpful. Each room was beautiful and I slept like a baby in those beds ! Thank you for such a great time and we will definitely be back next year for an even longer stay !! Definitely a great host and beautiful home!
