Great place…so good I don’t want others finding out

We had a great time at this property. It was perfect for our family, and it’s sometimes hard to find rentals that are appropriate size for one family and not big groups in this area. Having a place that had almost everything we needed for the beach helped us have to pack so much less stuff. It is as described and it was great for us. Walking distance to beach access point and Stinky’s restaurant. We loved this place and will be back again I’m sure. Hope no one else finds out about this gem so we can snag it again.

Great get away

This house was the perfect fit for our family of 4. A block away from the beach couldn't be beat. We enjoyed our daily/nightly walks there as well as the close proximity to Stinky's Fish Camp for lunch, dinner, drinks and live music. House was well equipped with beach chairs, umbrellas, paddle boards, kayaks, and bikes. Beds were comfortable and kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. Two large porch swings were our favorite places to relax for coffee or afternoon cocktails. Few items need attention: cleaning or replacing the coverings on the indoor couches and kitchen chairs, an outlet in the main floor bathroom would be beneficial, and more hangers available in all the closets. One negative was the construction happening next door that started at 7 AM-5PM every day. Overall, we had a wonderful vacation and truly enjoyed our stay at Leaning Palms in Dune Allen Beach.

Great house for vacation!

I was impressed with the obviously new remodel. It is decorated very nicely and attracts attention. The swing beds are the best feature, we spent so much time there! We had a 3 month old baby with so getting to the beach was a struggle. A smaller umbrella that the women could handle would have been handy. Also, there is no sound barrier in the house, you can hear everything from upstairs to downstairs. A hair dryer would be handy for renters to have as well. Maybe add a few more items in the kitchen, it was a little short. (plates, basting brush, skillet cover) It was a short walk to Stinky's, that was handy. The house was nicely cleaned. Some smaller pillows would have been comfortable, I didn't sleep well at all all week. Overall, I would rent again. Thank you.

Great location, comfy beds, wonderful stay!

Wonderful stay! You are just a short walk from the beach. Beach cruiser bikes are included in the garage! Although we experienced a lot of rain and didn't get to enjoy the porches much, there is brand new patio furniture in the back and the porch swings are to die for! Everything worked great for us. We did have a few light bulbs that didn't work, but the property managers were called and they were there the same day! Great customer service! The only thing that is needed is an electrical outlet in the downstairs bathroom and maybe not leave the toilet bowl cleaner brushes out in the bathrooms (faint toilet smell). Otherwise, I would give it five stars! Loved all the bike decor, the fridge worked fine for us, and everything was comfy (couch, chairs). The porch does have a lot of paint/wood splinters and is starting to sag by the front door, but I'm sure they are going to be working on that. There is a meg-mansion being constructed next door, but the hammering didn't start until 8am and was done each day by around 5, so it didn't bother us. Thank you for a beautiful home and great stay!

Cozy, relaxing, great location

Our stay was very relaxing, as this was just a quick getaway trip before school starts. We booked with only 1 month notice, so there really wasn’t a lot to choose from in this area last minute. When pulling in, the curb appeal from this house is beautiful! There was some construction going on close by, but we always remember to bring sound machines. This house was very close to a beach access, but keep in mind that although the access is very close, there isn’t a big enough area for the public. A lot of the beach closest to this rental is private. If you want more room, you’ll have to actually drive down further. With that in mind, I really think that a golf cart would be a great addition to this rental! Some other things that came up that we thought should be addressed are- the house needs sprayed. We saw one small cockroach in the downstairs bathroom, but not until the day we checked out. As stated on other reviews, the furniture covering inside and outside needs to be cleaned! Also, the very dirty vent behind the upstairs toilet needs cleaned. Some things that need to be added to this rental are a broom, dustpan, & pot holders. Overall, it was a relaxing stay at a cute & cozy atmosphere.

Red Door beach house

Loved our stay! Plenty of room for our group of six family members. Three suggestions/comments before ai list all of the great amenities: (1) Access to the front door differed from the check in instructions, as a key was needed. The door does not operate digitally alone. Thank you for the after hours management line calling back, even if we were about to report we sleuthed around and figured out the door. (2) It was a surprise to enter and note a Keurig machine in the kitchen, contrary to the description. (We had packed our own.) And, (3) is it possible to have an outlet on both sides of the bed in the master bedroom? We found only one outlet in that bedroom, which meant one of the cell phones had to be charged elsewhere. The location of this home was perfect, just short walk to beach access where there is a restroom and beach shower. Compared to other towns along 30A, this location was not congested with traffic. Loved having use of the 3 bicycles. Found lots of beach toys for the kids in the garage, along with many beach chairs (thank you!). Thank you for providing a good supply of linens as living the beach life means lots of showers. Our family loved our stay!

Great location!

Very comfortable home overall. Several areas needed attention though. 1) Updated photos and details need to be on the listing...construction next door, Ariel photo of home with lots that are vacant(they have homes on them now) ...grill on deck...directions to the correct beach access, the photo with the bed swings has a rug and coffee table in it...there’s no rug or coffee table there. 2) An outlet for a hair dryer needs to be added in the hall bath downstairs. 3) Garage is a mess...needs to be cleaned and organized 4) The fridge in the garage doesn’t work...need to be removed or replaced. 5) Ice maker in the kitchen fridge does not work!! That’s a BIG issue! 6) The entire of the home in several areas need Sheetrock repaired and painting...nothing major...just refresh. 7) The pillows on the bed swings are filthy and worn...all of them need to be replaced. 8) All front deck furniture needs to be replaced with furniture people can actually use and enjoy...the cushions on all of that furniture stayed soaked due to rain our entire stay so whenever we were on the deck we stood up the entire time there. Also each rear deck off 2 bedrooms need a small table and 2 chairs added. 9) The entire home needs a deep cleaning...including all throws on furniture and all cushions on couches need cleaning. 10) The home needs another bathroom...each bedroom needs to have its on bath. Instead of deck for rear rooms...bathrooms could be added. 11) The fridge in the kitchen needs a water filter in it...the slot for it was empty! Water filter on kitchen sink needs replacing. 12) The entire home just needs to be inspected by the owners and all of the above items and more would make it a much better place for renters to enjoy.
