House was very nice location, house cleaning can be a lot better and not owners fault as there not there to see it. Great place location and host was great to respond and what minor issues from storm was fixed quick as possible
Beautiful view, loved waking up to the waves on the beach! Communication with owner was easy and they are quick to respond. Guests on other side were causing some concern and the issue was addressed right away without any further trouble. I’d rent here again.

Check in process was easy and location was great. Having a heated pool was a nice bonus. However, the property needs a deep clean and some TLC.
This house was awesome! It’s a great location to grocery stores, restaurants, & fun things to do! The beach was so private & the pool was perfect for the kiddos!
Pool was vey well maintained our entire visit. Access to beach was fantastic especially with small children. It was peaceful and relaxing. Thank you Sarah. It’s definitely a vacation we all will never forget.
Our group had an awesome time during our stay. The location is wonderful. Overall great experience. Great communication with the property manager. Loved our vacation!!
The house is beautiful and has lots of room! It’s super close to the beach and the pool was heated. We actually spent a lot of time enjoying the pool. I will definitely consider this home for our next vacation!
The owners were very nice, attentive and communicative. Everything was as advertised except having a large seafood pot. Plenty of beach chairs and toys which was nice to enjoy. Highly recommend staying here!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay, Penny! We will make sure to get a large seafood pot for the kitchen!
We had a great time here. The house was very clean. The location is driving distance to the hangout and had some great local restaurants within walking distance. Highly recommend.
We enjoyed our overall stay very much. There are some upkeep issues that need to be addressed at the property such as loose tiles throughout the house and an area where a leak upstairs has Sheetrock coming loose in the living room. All ceiling fans need dusted as well. Great place for large groups who want to be right on the beach!
We totally loved the unit. Everything was as described in the listing. The pool was a great addition. Access to the beach was perfect.
We will probably be using this unit again!
Beautiful house and location! Had everything we needed. The toy closet in the carport was a HUGE hit and saved us a ton of money. Did not have one single complaint and will definitely use yall again!

Perfect for families
The condo was absolutely perfect for a few families. We used the pool constantly throughout the stay and it was well maintained. The beach was clean and so close that it touched the deck. Extremely quiet, peaceful and safe at night.
The only problem we had was with the beds. We joked that when we come back, we'll have mattresses shipped. Other than that, it was perfect and we will definitely be back.

Do you know which mattresses where uncomfortable? We just left after a 3 night stay and they only one that looked to be "sunken" was the upstairs king. We immediately ordered a new mattress, and when they came to set it up they discovered that the frame had come apart and was not supporting the mattress! Anyway, the brand new one is set up now. We laid on all the other beds and they seemed fine...but I will say everyone likes a different softness so it's hard to get one that everyone likes. I slept in downstairs master and found it to be very comfortable! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope you come back soon!

This beach house is awesome!
I loved being able to stay right on the beach and hear the waves rolling in. The house was nicely decorated and had everything we needed to cook our meals at home. We loved having two master suites also. The house was in a great location, very close to the best restaurants which had no waits this time of year. The weather was perfect for taking walks on the beach and relaxing by the pool! Having bikes was a nice benefit too. There was a porch area under the house with cool breezes and a grilling area. The house was clean and comfortable and seemed well insulated. We will definitely stay here again!!

Thank you for your review and come back and stay with us again!
Had to rewash a lot of dishes and utensils Ceilings were leaking really bad when it rained. Tracy knew this before she rented to us and then tried to send out someone the day before we left. Sheets were dirty. Had to spend half day washing them. Hair and makeup on them. The only good thing I can say is beach and pool were great. Lot of cracked tile. Dirty furniture. Worst place we ever stayed. Asked to be moved but was told no.
Nice location, had a great time but ....Pool should be heated through April not March. Televisions are terrible. Only first floor bedroom TV worked. Living room TV kept freezing up and restarting. Two TV's upstairs did not work at all and the other only got the Friends show.

Great property/location poorly managed
Master Bath had half roll of TP for 4 night stay. Dishwasher was full of dishes on arrival. Pool was advertised as heated but was too cold for the kids. After reaching out to mgmt I was blown off and told to be patient bcs the pool takes a while to heat up and told based on mgmt’s phone app that temp was adequate as it was at 76. Pool was finally warm enough to use the final day of our stay. For the amount we were spending it just felt like things were being done on the cheap. But the house and location were wonderful, easy beach access, and lots of privacy. Has potential to be a 5-star beach house.

Good time of year to visit.
Condo was well equipped with condiments ;
salt, pepper, coffee filters, Had enough pots and pans and other kitchen items . The storage closet outside was full of pails, shovels and floats of all sizes .
I was very dissatisfied with the cleanliness of the place! Under the beds desperately needed dusting as did the ceiling fans. Trash can area in kitchen was filthy, trash cans outside were very smelly and need to be cleaned. The door in the upstairs master was hard to keep closed but the air conditioner worked well. Probably would not stay there again .

Never Again
pool is much, much smaller than pictured. Pool did not appear to have been cleaned prior to our arrival had sand in pool. Underwater pool light did not work.Missing deck umbrella at pool side. Some bathroom lights were out, interior floor laminate is peeling in places. Outside deck paint gone exposing rusted screw heads. Kitchen lacked the cookware for 12 people. Had a 2 slot toaster and a 6" diameter skillet for 12 people. Found a couple of wall outlets not working. Missing livingroom curtain, could not watch TV in daytime because of the sunlight glare off TV. We only had 6 people but felt crowed and disapointed with the amenities. For what was paid, we expected much better.
