Work hard play hard!
We needed to have a working meeting with 5 people from our company. We wanted a nice space to be able to collaborate and also socialize. It was the perfect space for all of that and more. We added in early morning walks on the beach and nice dinners out. It was the perfect location and the host was awesome!

Excellent in most respects
The property was excellent in most respects: great location, spacious, nicely decorated. A few negative comments: 1. It’s impossible to open the dishwasher without also opening the refrigerator door, and even then it’s very difficult. (The two are at right angles with each other.) 2. The television is one of those “smart TVs” that doesn’t have cable coverage but instead requires you to use some other subscription that you have. I had to run off to Best Buy to get an HDMI cable so that I could watch MLB playoffs. 3. There are 2-1/2 bathrooms. The listing says three. 4. There are no screens on the windows. Bugs invaded on one occasion.

Quick family trip to the beach
Great home with plenty of space for my family. The master suite and bathroom was beautiful. We loved that it was just a short little walk to the beach. Coco was great with communication while still allowing our privacy. Check-in and check out process was super easy. We look forward to staying here again in the future.

Our stay was amazing. This was my first trip to Jacksonville Beach. The rental was clean and very nice. The neighbors were so nice. It was an extremely short walk to the beach with an amazing little park across from the rental for those that don’t like the beach all day. It is a short drive to any restaurant. I would definitely stay there again

We had the best time! The place is very functional and nice and the location could not be better! Very easy walk to the beach. Playground and park right across the street. Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, Publix, CVS all right around the corner. Coco was super communicative and helpful. All around an excellent stay!!

Down time at the beach
We came to property after doing quite a bit of driving in need of a couple days at the beach. The house was so close to the beach (4 minute walk) and anything else you needed. My only recommendation would be a curtain for the slider and some decent beach chairs. Our stay was perfect from booking to check out! Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful home.
