We love staying at this property and the fact that we can bring our pup!! There were a few minor inconveniences like the back sliding door lock not working and the bed not being super comfy, but overall we had a phenomenal stay here!

So glad this one's become a favorite — and that your pup gets to come along! We're happy the stay was a phenomenal one overall, and thank you for flagging the sliding door lock and the bed comfort; both have been passed along to our team to look into. We'd love to welcome you and your pup back anytime.

Clean and convenient to the beach and pool. Beautiful balcony with places to sit and enjoy the view, having morning coffee or lunch. A carrier for items for the beach makes bringing beach items easy. We would stay here again.

Very good location to walk to beach. The unit was cute, not very comfortable with respect to sofas or beds. There was no lock on back sliding glass door. Dishwasher did not work and ironing board was broken.

The location was perfect for us, with an easy walk to the beach, in a quiet neighborhood. The property was clean and the decor was well thought out. The WiFi was a little spotty, but that's not something that could be helped and the property management group was quick to respond to my questions about it. We started planning our trip back before we even left.

Nice place close to the beach

Everything was as exactly as described. We arrived late in the evening and we were so happy to hear the waves from the back deck. We enjoyed the ice maker and the kitchen had everything we needed. We loved the quiet and secluded location but the convenience of having so much close by. We hope to return soon.

Great space near the beach and new pool with big covered dashboard with fans. The two sofa beds in the living room was great for kids. Awesome wide patio as well. Lots of local food around. The only very minor issue I found was the second bedroom's fan did not function. Luckily we always bring a travel one so no real impact. Everything else was perfect!

We're so glad to hear this home was such a great fit near the beach, and that the new pool with its covered, fan-cooled space offered the perfect spot to relax. It's wonderful to know the sofa beds worked so well for the kids and that the wide patio and nearby local food added to your stay. Thank you for the thoughtful note about the fan; we've passed it along to our team so we can keep the home in top shape for future guests. We would love to welcome you back anytime.

Awesome location. Maybe a 3 minute walk to the beach. Near Angelina’s Pizza, Pecan Jacks, and Old Florida Fish House. Did a lot of grilling and kids loved that the pool was laid back. Never overcrowded. Would appreciate if the WiFi was secured tho if I’m nitpicking. Very satisfied with our stay.

Thank you so much for the kind review! We're so glad the awesome location worked out so well — that quick walk to the beach and being close to spots like Angelina's Pizza, Pecan Jacks, and Old Florida Fish House sounds ideal.
