Home was very clean and nice. The host was very accommodating and extremely responsive via the VRBO app. Excellent location on 30A and great neighborhood. Beachfront was also great and not crowded. Would definitely stay here again.
The property was just what we were looking for - plenty of space for our family of 5, great private beach access, and well stocked with everything we needed. The property manager, Mitch, was also very responsive. We would love to come back.
Host was extremely kind and responsive. While this is an older house, it was a great space for two adults, two teens and our dog. We had a wonderful time in this neighborhood. Location is excellent.Just a short walk to a gorgeous beach
Location to the beach was great, disappointed there was no hose or shower on the back of the house to wash off sand and salt water before entering house. There was no access to the front outdoor shower from the back beach access. Beds were extremely comfortable. Would have liked to have more restaurants and shops within walking distance but otherwise everything was great!

Hi Rachael,
Thank you for your review! We’re glad you found the beach location great and the beds so comfortable.
We appreciate your feedback about the outdoor shower and hose. As the middle unit, the outdoor shower/hose area is just a short walk around either end of the building. We’ll be updating our guest info to better highlight that access so it’s clearer moving forward.
Thanks again for staying with us, and we’d love the chance to host you again!
Our family of 4 (teen and big kid) had a great week at this unit. I could walk from the back door to the water's edge in 2 minutes and that's at a middle-aged mom pace. The path to the beach is all private boardwalk, no streets to cross so you can feel safe letting the kids go ahead. Everything was just as described. Very clean, well-stocked kitchen, lots of beach toys and chairs. Having 3 king beds and 3 showers was great! The neighborhood was very quiet and peaceful but there is lots to do within a short drive. I definitely recommend renting bikes as we could bike to many shops and cafes. We spent our time biking, walking the beach, playing in the ocean and going out to eat and it was the perfect area for that. Communication with the property manager was very timely and they offered lots of suggestions for the area. The only thing I would note is that there are a lot of stairs to navigate - stairs within the unit, stairs from the deck to the backyard, and stairs from the boardwalk down to the beach. That was no problem for our family but if you are traveling with someone who needs to consider that, it's good to know.
