This place was amazing my wife and I were on our honeymoon and this place was "Super Cute" according to my wife. I thought it was pretty dope. Ease of access to the beach literally across the street. The owners never bugged us we were very respectful to the property. We both stay from April 4th thru the 8th. Would definitely recommend this place and will be coming again in the next year.l

Unfortunately, this BeachBox did not live up to expectations. The listing claims it sleeps four, but that’s simply not true. There’s no sofabed—just a lumpy three-piece couch that doesn’t function as a sleeping surface. It’s also not the one pictured in the photos. Several advertised amenities were misleading or unusable. The hairdryer was melted and had a European plug, making it completely unusable. The “desk” mentioned in the listing doesn’t exist. The air conditioning unit was visibly covered in mildew on the blades, which was concerning. WiFi? Practically nonexistent. When it did connect, it was so slow even the TV struggled to load anything despite there being an access point in the room that clearly isn’t functioning. My 2008 iPhone ran faster. Cleanliness also left a lot to be desired. Dishes were dirty, the toilet was gross at the base, the curtains were covered in mildew behind them, and the TV screen looked like it had been scraped with a rock. The bed was not a proper mattress but rather a stack of three foam toppers, and the pillows—clearly very low quality—seemed like they’d never been washed. You’re told not to strip the beds, and after seeing the condition of everything, I understand why. Pros: • A short walk to the beach • Lots of natural light • Easy parking • The room did smell clean upon arrival That said, asking guests to take out the trash feels like a lot considering what’s already lacking. Bottom line: You’re paying for proximity to the beac

Money's worth

We paid a low price for this rental and you get what you pay for. Not the cleanest. Bed linens had an odor. Floors could have used a good scrubbing...T.V. remote has to be charged... didn't know. If one needs a place to rest or sleep, good choice.
