No internet Super Bowl weekend 😡

No internet Super Bowl weekend. I know they have no control of this but the timing is terrible. Said there was an outage in the area but that is not true. Neighborhood had it. Also, house is showing its age- main shower floor has been patched but still has a crack when u step in the area. Water is going somewhere! New sofa and chair are not comfortable like the older ones were . They were very responsive but never could fix it.

Wonderful location

We were very happy with the cabin and its location. Our only suggestion: the front door and the lock need replacing. The property manager was most helpful.

Fun in the Sun at BeachQuest

We had a very enjoyable stay at BeachQuest. Everything was exactly as pictured and very nice and comfortable. We had a small hiccup with the TV in the living room the 1st evening but the management company was very responsive and got everything up and running. We really loved sitting out on the porch and it was a 1-minute walk from the stairs to feet in the water. We could not have asked for a better location!
