DUNES OF SEAGROVE-GULF VIEW-TOP RATED-BEST POOLS-PRIVATE BEACH

10/10 Excellent

"Such a diamond place!!! Although our trip was cut short because of the hurricane … we were extremely pleased with Ken’s place and are looking forward to returning! Ken was so attentive and easy to communicate with and very empathetic to our trip ending early and willing to work with us. Over 25 years I have stayed consistently at 2 places and I do believe this will always be our first choice from now on if there is availability. The cleanliness was top notch! The little details left for us were very appreciated. Staying here was so easy. Also, the covered parking is easy and access to the private beach and pool was really so nice! We really enjoyed the patio also. Do not hesitate staying here!"
