Consistently 5 Star Beach House

This is our 4th time renting this property for a family beach vacation. It is clean and the amenities are super. The private pool is perfect for our family, the elevator certainly makes moving ice chests and luggage easier, and the view is spectacular. The boardwalk to the beach is convenient and large enough for golf carts. All you could ask for in a beach family beach house. We have already reserved it again for next year.

Sandfest getaway

The property and amenities at the house were amazing and just as depicted in the listing. We loved the oceanfront property and close proximity to beach access. The only tiny improvement we would request is improved wifi in the house, as evening tv streaming was difficult at best. We understand the location constraints, but the surrounding RV resort seemed to not have this issue.Overall the house was a spectacular place to retreat with friends and family for a beach and poolside vacation!

Best Beach House

The house was beautiful and spacious enough for our 11 guests, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The kitchen and dining was large enough for everyone and easy to cook in having everything you needed supplied. The pool was a great retreat space and offered privacy for our guests that was far enough from our neighbors, so we didn’t disturb them either. I loved the short walk to the beach and not having to drive on the beach with plenty of places to rinse off without tracking sand in the house. The best part was the awesome views from the living room. We will definitely stay again.

Wonderful beach house getaway

We spent a fantastic long weekend at a beautiful beach house with easy access to the beach and a private swimming pool. The spacious, well-decorated house comfortably accommodated our large group of family and friends. The open-plan living area, well-equipped kitchen, and cozy bedrooms made our stay incredibly comfortable. The private swimming pool was a highlight, providing a refreshing escape surrounded by lush landscaping. Little touches like beach chairs, toys, and a poolside grill added to the enjoyment. Overall, this beach house offered everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable getaway. Highly recommended!

Beautiful house in a great location

Our family had a great time and really enjoyed staying here. It was very spacious, clean, and the kitchen was fully stocked. We picked up sand toys on our way to the house not realizing they had some there already! There were also some pool toys/floaties. The beach bags came in handy, too, when we needed something to haul some snacks on a day trip.Our only wish would’ve been to have enough bath towels for everyone in our group and it would’ve been convenient to have beach/pool towels available, too. Thank you for a wonderful “home away from home”.

Gorgeous property but construction on site

This house is gorgeous and very clean but you won’t get much relaxing in due to the everyday, very loud construction at the house next door. We actually left a day early. If you don’t mind sawing, banging, drilling and heavy construction equipment then you’ll love this property. Construction hours are 6am -7pm

The view from the third floor was more than you could ask for and the pool was perfect! There was also plenty of privacy since there were separate bathrooms for us all.

Great house, great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with the location, cleanliness and comfort of this house. Location right on the beach - we had a golf cart but it’s not needed - just extra fun! Quick drive to many restaurants but we also cooked most of our meals. The kitchen was well appointed, even had a double oven! Very clean house. Property management was very friendly and responsive, we had them out to reset the router (the RV park has wifi but the house wifi was way better!). We also had them out to change batteries in a smoke alarm that started chirping midway through our stay (they replaced batteries in all detectors). The house is located in an RV park but not managed by the same staff, I didn’t know that until we left. The staff at the park are also really great, very friendly.

Amazing Views!

We were looking for a place to watch the waves roll in and this property did not disappoint. It’s a lovely home that was very well stocked. Plenty of space for our large group to relax and visit. The elevator and second fridge were appreciated amenities. Unfortunately, the windows with the amazing views had quite a bit of sea salt build up. We found that a few bottles of Windex Outdoor and a squeegee remedied the problem. Also, upon arrival we found the private pool was green and not very inviting. The management company was quick to respond, but it wasn’t until the fourth day of our stay that the pool was ready for swimmers. A definite disappointment, but we were satisfied with the management company’s handling of the situation. We also had a problem with the AC, but this was addressed and resolved in a timely manner. No batteries in the tv remote when we arrived, but again, an easy fix. Overall, we couldn’t have been happier with this property.

Excellent Rental House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, the good. We were pleasantly surprised that this rental house was as advertised which rarely happens with many rentals. The best part about this house is that it was CLEAN! The photos that are used in the advertisement are accurate. You will not be disappointed. Now for the not so good... some of the drains in the sink and showers drain slowly... bring Draino! The house needs to be sprayed by a professional exterminator as we did see roaches in the kitchen... bring RAID! Lastly, the pool had quite a bit of sand in it. It would be nice if the home owners provided guests with the ability to vacuum the pool and to shock it before use.
