Great place to stay

The property was as described - nice new property, great bed situation for our family of 4 adult couples. The private oool was excellent - nice and cool as opposed to others we have stayed in where the pool was hot the entire stay. Kitchen had the basic necessities. Grass around the pool area (fenced) made it very pet friendly. Highly recommend!

New Years Getaway

We were very pleased that we selected this property. The house has plenty of room for a large group. The house is very nicely decorated, very well kept, and very clean. This was a small getaway for us. We decided to spend New Years away from home. We would definitely use again!

Family gathering

The house is very new, well built, nicely furnished. 5 Bdrms as advertised. Very clean. Not on the beach but everything was very close and convenient. The managers were readily available and took care of the only minor issue very quickly.

Host was very helpful and responded quickly. The place was nicely decorated and adequate room for us. Family friendly and several new construction going on in the area. Overview looking out above the pool was nice in the morning.I didn't check all the rooms but I had no family members bring up any issues. I am not sure about the other beds but the one bed upstairs was very hard and my husband felt a lump in the middle of the bed.We also lost an earring in the downstairs sofa. While looking for earring the sofa cushions were dirty and found trash. They need to be cleaned. Other than that, our time went by quickly and wished we had an extra day. We enjoyed our stay. Thank you!! Sorry no pics of the house we stayed only the fishing trip.
Morning of our fishing venture.

Thank you so much for staying with us and for taking the time to share your feedback — we truly appreciate it! We're glad to hear the home was a great fit for your group and that you enjoyed the pool views and family-friendly layout. We’re sorry to hear about the issues with the upstairs bed and the sofa cushions. That’s certainly not the standard we aim for, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We’ll have our team inspect the mattress and schedule a deep clean of the sofa right away to ensure this is addressed for future guests. We’re also sorry an earring was lost — if you haven’t already retrieved it, feel free to reach out and we’ll be happy to have housekeeping check again for you. We’re thrilled that you enjoyed your stay overall and only wish you could have stayed longer, too! We hope to welcome you back again soon — and hopefully for that extra day next time! -Life in Paradise Team

Overall good just a few things

I would love to give this place a five star but first you would think they supplies the blankets they do for most part but the pull out was sheets only . It also had cereal and other stuff in the pull out and on the floor . Then there is the fact on Saturday the water went off and did not come back on for awhile . Then the next morning the water went off and on and then was very slow pressure. Also the upstairs bedroom with a balcony but the door handle just was laying on the floor . So my husband fixed it. Other wise the short trip to the beach and the space was great. I would recommend it to people .

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the proximity to the beach and the spaciousness of our property. However, we are truly sorry to learn about the issues you encountered during your stay. We strive to provide a comfortable and seamless experience for all our guests, and it’s clear we fell short in this instance. Regarding the bedding and cleanliness of the pull-out bed, we apologize for the oversight. Rest assured, we will address this with our housekeeping team to ensure it does not happen again. We are also sorry for the water interruptions you experienced. Such occurrences are rare, and we understand how inconvenient this must have been. We are looking into the matter to prevent future disruptions. Lastly, thank you for bringing the issue with the balcony door handle to our attention. We appreciate your husband's initiative in fixing it, but we regret that this task fell upon you. We value your feedback and would love the opportunity to make things right. Please feel free to reach out to us directly during your next stay so we can promptly address any concerns. Thank you for recommending our property despite these issues. We hope to welcome you back soon for a better experience. Warm regards, Life in Paradise Team
