Thanks for your feedback! We’re glad you stayed with us. Just to clarify, we stock towels based on the maximum occupancy of the property, not the length of stay, We also provide starter amenities to help get guests settled in. After that, we encourage guests to pick up anything extra they might need for a longer stay. We appreciate you letting us know and hope to host you again soon!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was very clean. Everything looked as the pictures show. The location is closed to the beach. The only thing that was a little disappointing was that the bonfire pit didn't work and we had eveverything to do s'mores

Can't Wait to Come Back!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property blew us away. Despite being so close to the beach, it was in amazing condition! It was clean, spacious, and the kitchen had so many pans and items to use which was a big selling point for us. Literally the only thing I could *kind of* complain about was water pressure, as it was low which made showers a little slower, but that was such a minute detail that we are already looking to book our next getaway here again!

Great!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This rental was awesome! I am already looking at when I can come back. My dogs loved having this space versus a hotel or RV and it was so close to the beach as well as having its own pool. The only thing that could have made it more convenient was a dog park on this part of the island but that may not be possible. I truly enjoyed this stay!
Response from VrboOwner on 18 Feb 2026
We’re so happy you and your pups loved it! Nothing beats having your furry friends along for a beachy getaway with your own pool right outside. We totally get the dog park wish — the Island does have one at the end of Whitecap Blvd. Can’t wait to welcome you back for another fun, sun-filled stay!

Initially we were asked to be there for pest control which is odd, and we replied we were concerned about chemicals around our pets so we asked not to have the treatment. Mgmt agreed but we came back one day to find a note saying it had been done anyway. Not cool. We won’t be back.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 Nov 2025
Hi Roy! We completely understand where you are coming from and please accept our apologies for this oversight. We see where you declined treatment and we relayed that information to the Homeowner's Association. Unfortunately, between the HOA and the pest control company, that message was clearly dropped. We have since addressed this with all companies including our staff and we sincerely hope you'll reconsider and give us a chance to host you again under better circumstances.

The Just Right Spot...

We needed a little getaway from the city and this location was just the right spot. We were within walking distance to the beach, restaurants, grocery store and just about anything. It was like being cocooned in a little slice of utopia. Will definitely use them again.

Cute beach townhouse

We enjoyed our stay. Loved that they allowed pets. Walking distance to the beach. The yacht club amenities are a great bonus and everything you need to know is right there as you walk in. I would stay here again!

Cleanliness is a priority

The property is great, location is great but the cleanliness of the condo was not to my standards. I reached out to management and I will say they made attempts to make it right like waiving the cleaning fee and offering to send someone to clean. I declined the housekeeper, for my own reasons. However, the items left dirty are no brainers for me when cleaning a rental space and it made me think the unit had never been cleaned since the last renter. For this reason I probably will not stay here again. I’m HUGE on cleanliness!
