Place was great! Walking distance from the beach. Great house and the pool is awesome stayed in it more than anything. Ryan is an awesome host great communication and responds very quick. 10 out of 10 would stay again!
The property description is accurate and the house has a lot of space for a large group. The heated pool is the perfect size and the golf cart makes for a quick and easy trip to many of the area beaches!
Will definitely stay again!
Loved our stay! The customer service and maintenance team was amazing! We had some problems with the pots and pans, and within an hour they brought us brand new ones.
Wonderful family house! Well appointed with everything you need. Like the fact of plenty of dishes,glassware, and cooking utensils. The pool was excellent! Had a problem with A/C but was promptly fixed the next day before it really got hot. Property management was the best we’ve encountered through our 30 plus years of vacationing in Florida. We’ll be back!!!
We had a great time on our vacation!! The house was amazing especially the pool and back yard area. Great location, easy walk to the beach. The golf cart was a nice addition to the stay. I highly recommend this property and I would even visit again myself. We had a small issue with the pool heater and it was taken care of immediately. The property manager was spot on and very attentive. Loved every part of it!!!
Great location and plenty of space. The pool was amazing. Some of the furniture on the patio could use some updating; missing and dirty cushions and a broken umbrella but they came and replaced that quickly. The golf cart was an amazing addition! It was the first time we rented a place that had no basics in the kitchen though. Not even salt and pepper. But the stores were quick to get to and the kitchen had plenty of space.
Everything went fairly smooth. There were a few items for the beach and the pool. Everyone enjoyed the pool, it was really great having the tanning shelf for our little ones. They were able to play there while the bigger kids played in the deeper end. Adequate kitchen utensils for your cooking needs. Only complaint is that the bed sheets smelled mildewy like they’d been left in the washer overnight. Pool cleaner came during our stay after it stormed and cleaned the pool which was very nice. Overall great time, safe location, easy access to the beach. Will stay again!
The pictures on the listing do not do this place justice! It’s very roomy and the pool is amazing. All of the beds are pretty high off the ground (except for the lower bunks), so be prepared if you’re bringing a small dog. They won’t be able to get up and down on their own, if they typically sleep in bed with you. Location is awesome. It’s the first house when entering the adorable coded entry neighborhood. That said, this makes it the furthest from the beach entrance. But, it’s still not far. About a 5-7 min walk, or 2 min drive with the golf cart! Which makes lugging your beach equipment SO much easier. All in all, this place was wonderful and would definitely recommend.
The home worked just perfect for us as far as location to the beach! The golf cart was amazing and made trips to the beach a breeze or it’s only a short walk. We needed a single level home so that was great! We didn’t need all of the bedrooms but loved that 4 of the bedrooms had king size mattresses! The pool was very nice but a little warmer than our pool at home so we didn’t spend a lot of time in it. I would recommend new cookware as they were scratched up pretty bad and I was worried about cooking with the skillets so I just bought one skillet. We didn’t do a lot of cooking so that was ok. I would also recommend new towels for the bathrooms as they were getting thin and just not that comfortable to dry off with. Other than that, it was a great stay and would definitely book again!
This was the nicest beach vacation house we have rented! Very clean, no bugs. All on one floor. My husband and I came with 3 grown daughters. One daughter is single, 2 are married with families. Four grandkids are from ages 12 to almost 16 years old. Eleven of us total. We had plenty of room.
The house had a master bedroom in the back with a king sized bed and its own bathroom. In the big closet were some things for babies (like high chairs and pack and play) and blow up mattesses. However, the bed is quite high. It was hard for us to get in and out of it. My husband sleeps better in
his overstuffed chair at home because of his back.
There were 3 rooms with queen sized beds and a bunk bed room and 2 other full bathrooms.
The kitchen was good. It only had 2 medium sized plastic cups. More would be better if you have small children. We had to buy ice as the ice maker in the freezer did not put out very much ice. But the refrigerator and freezer were plenty big for us. For the garbage disposal to work, you have to plug in the gray cord below the sink to the outlet above the counter to the left of the sink.
Fabulous pool and pool area! Plenty of room for everyone to hang out there for outside eating or couch lounging.
The golf cart has the right light burned out. It was hard to find a good place to park at the beach. As we were walking back to it, we saw a man getting into it and starting it! We yelled and he stopped. Some carts look alike and the keys must be interchangeable!
We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely recommend this property. The house was extremely clean, comfortable, and very well stocked with everything our family needed. We especially appreciated not having to run out and buy basic items you would expect to find in a rental property. Everything was thoughtfully provided, including plenty of towels and washcloths.The pool was a major highlight for both the kids and adults. It was private, relaxing, and the fountains and umbrellas in the pool made it feel like a true vacation spot. The walk to the beach was also very short and easy, which made going back and forth simple for our group.The host was excellent as well. Responses were always very fast, and we never had any trouble getting in contact. Overall, this was a clean, convenient, well-equipped property that made for a great family beach trip. We would gladly stay here again.
Pool was great! This place had everything you needed to cook with. It was spacious, leaving us enough room for all of the family to eat and sit together. Very convenient location. Close to the beach and steps to a dollar general. Our family had a blast!
The house was very clean. Ryan answered all of my questions promptly. The pool was great but a little cold since we opted not to pay for heating. The kitchen is equiped with everything you need to cook/eat. We absolutely loved the location. You'll need to supply yourself with toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, cleaning items,...so having a dollar general where you can just walk around the corner is so convenient. Had an issue with the gate code, but it got worked out easily. The beach access is a short, lovely walk not far from the house and neighborhood. I would stay here again.
This place is the best. House is nice and clean pool is awesome nothing bad at all this is the second time we have stayed here and both times it has been awesome. The people from Travel Life are great to work with and make it an awesome experience!!
