Great place for the holiday's

The family stayed here while connected with the Shell Station. This is a great place to spend the holidays! The house is perfect for our 6 people and we can't wait to come back for the summer when we can go to the beach! We've already put down our deposit!! The place was very clean, with a nice new Sony TV in the living room, and very nice wall mounted flat screen in the master bedroom with Directtv on both TV's. Full quality home entertainment system complete with DVD player. Well stocked kitchen. The only complaint I have is the cutlery for the kitchen, could use an "upgrade," otherwise the kitchen is great. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfortable, much better than my bed at home. Luna Bella is highly recommended!! Can't wait to be back in July!!

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful beach house with us. We enjoyed our stay so much and are looking forward to booking the beach house again next year. We enjoyed the beach view on the deck and the house was so comfortable and large enough for the 7 of us. Also, we liked that the house was close to the Big Store and Stingeree. We were so happy we could bring our dogs and they had so much fun. We are going to miss you Lunda Bella but will see you next year!
Owner response:We could not be more pleased that all enjoyed their time at the beach and on the deck, including the dogs! We appreciate your kind words and taking the time to let us know!

What a Treasure for our family! We lost our cabin during IKE and had spent over 50 years making memories in it. This is our first "Bash" (family get together) since Ike and what a blessing your "Luna Bella and Shell Station" have been! We so enjoyed our stay, made some "new" family memories and hope to return next year! : ) Thanks so much!

Our family stayed at this beautiful beach house. The house is in the best location to everything, including my favorite Big Store. The house has a great beach view and both sides of the house you can drive onto the beach. We brought our golf cart and had a great relaxing time. This house we will for sure rent again. I am nervous writing another positive review along with everyone else because everyone will want to rent it...haha. Great place!!!
Owner response:We are thrilled you had a great vacation at Luna Bella. Thank you for the review!

We love your beach house! It is beautifully decorated! This is our 7th year for girls getaway weekend and we've rented a different house each year. This one has gone to the top of the list! We love the cute lights on the wall. The Ike book was very informative. You are blessed to have come back and rebuilt from the storm. Awesome kitchen and layout. Thanx for sharing your home with us!

Staying at the Luna Bella is like being at a 5 star resort. The house is just beautful with wonderful furnishings and decorations. The porch/deck is fabulous. It has a great kitchen, well stocked with pots, pans, dishes, appliances, etc. It is a terrific place to get a lot of peaceful rest and relaxation. We cannot wait to go back next summer. Thank you to the owners for building such a fantastic vacation home and sharing it.
Owner response:Thank you for the comment. We are so happy you had a great vacation!

We came down for a family vacation. We all had a great time. We needed to relax for a few days. We had to leave a few days early because our son is in the Air Force and leaving for Iraq. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much for a great place to celebrate Thanksgiving. The house was exactly as presented on your webiste. It was the perfect size. The kitchen was stocked with so many utensils/pots/pans that we could have stayed for a year! The deck was magnificent!

We had a FABULOUS time vacationing here. Thank you for sharing your beautiful little beach house with us. It was the perfect place for all of us to get together for a REAL, relaxing vacation together. Loved the personal touches of games, books and magazines to borrow while we were here. What a wonderful location....the easy access to the beach was fantastic. We made many wonderful memories together here. Thank you!
