Property was very well maintained and cleaned. Plenty of kitchen and living room space. The pool was very close and clean. The door lock messed up once and I was able to contact the property manager quickly and they came out and fixed it right away.

The location is convenient to the beach with just a short walk. The community has a nice little pool and common use charcoal grills and picnic tables, which is nice. The place itself was clean and for the most part well-kept. There were a couple minor things like the railing going up the stairs wasn't secured, so hopefully they will have that fixed before the next people rent. The bathrooms were dated but clean. The kitchen had all the necessities that we needed. The beds were really firm, but I was able to sleep well enough. They are double beds, though, so not a lot of space if more than 1 person is sleeping.

Reviewer Comments:
72 hours of BLISS with dogs, kids and us in the pouring rain. This place is filled with the love of travel and quality for a great price just a very few blocks away from the beach. It has the most beautiful wood, floor to ceiling, that allows for a spacious flow from the living, dinning and kitchen areas where they provided games for us to play, a big screen TV to watch every football game under no sun and all the essentials for us to eat in and bake cookies. While filling our tummies and staying out of the rain, the upstairs had many comfortable beds to choose from. It has 3 bedrooms, that are super spacious and carry a fresh/bohemian style. All bedrooms are beautifully decorated, have larges size super comfortable beds, plenty of dressers space, and the 2 larger ones had nightstand with lamps and large TVs for those that didn’t want to watch football. The master bedroom had it own beautifully tiled bathroom that was fully stacked with great quality towels and essential bath products (major plus in my book). The property grounds is the quaintest thing you will ever see. Beautifully painted townhomes in a variety of colors all very well kept, with lighting, picnic tables and bbq pits for outdoor socializing.. They also provided a dog friendly area with essentials to maintain the properties cleanliness.. We weren’t able to get in the nice looking pool due to the rain, but it looked well kept and clean. During my next summer trip, I will definitely be staying in this beauty.

Cute beach house
We visited for Thanksgiving and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My only complaint is it’s not beach front and lacks even a beach view. Great location overall
Shore Ya Right was a great property that was conveniently located to the beach and fun activities. The condo was decorated in a very cute, rustic, beachy way, and it slept all seven of us very comfortably. It was clean and well stocked with necessities, although we could have used an extra blanket or two for the couch bed. 🙂 We had a wonderful stay at this fantastic property! I would highly recommend Shore Ya Right to other families traveling with kids and even some extended family. 👍👍
I love that the bedrooms are upstairs and there were 3 bathrooms. 2 upstairs and 1 downstairs. The kids loved the swimming pool. The location of this place was great, one street from the beach
We had an awesome experience with this property. Everything was perfect and we had everything we needed for a great weekend getaway. This little community is perfect and the rentals are quite roomy. We had a chance to speak with several families who had stayed in different units many times. We will definitely be back!!!
My mother is a stickler—and even she couldn't get over how clean everything was when we arrived. The location is great—guests can easily walk to the beach as well as several restaurants. Come sundown, sit for a spell on the porch and visit with neighbors or go inside and watch Netflix on one of four televisions. All in all, we very much enjoyed our stay.
