Place was great, but communication with owners was a bit rough. Did not send instructions at required 24 hr mark and then was unreachable up until a few hours before check in. Never responded to any messages, had to be called by VRBO. Which was unfortunate cause i really liked the location
Dreamy Beach Getaway!We absolutely loved our stay at this adorable beach bungalow! Waking up to the sound of the waves and having coffee just steps from the sand was pure magic. The decor was charming and beachy without feeling overdone, and the little touches (like beach chairs and games) made it feel like home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful beach escape!
This is the cutest beach house we’ve stayed in by far. It’s very spacious and comfortable. The location is unbeatable, directly across from beach access. The host was also incredibly responsive and helpful, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. We can't wait to come back!
This was a Juneteenth/First Father's Day trip for me and my family. We had a great time and the public beach access was the perfect distance. Very relaxing on a family oriented beach.
Nicely decorated and well equipped cottage. Enjoyed lounging on the covered porch. The beach was just steps away and was easy to access at all times of day and tides.
We stayed here for a week and we really enjoyed it. Great little house with front porch and the view of the ocean from the porch was awesome! Just so relaxing sitting out there enjoying the breeze and the beautiful view. Definitely would stay again!!!

Thanks for being a great guest! Come back again soon!
We enjoyed our stay at Donovan's Reef and can't wait to return! We enjoyed sitting on the porch and watching the boats on the ocean and listening to the waves! Public access to the beach was right at the home which was wonderful! We loved being able to bring our pup with us! Looking forward to another trip!
We had a wonderful time, and hope to visit again. The house is in a great location near the beach access and within 5 minutes of restaurants and stores. A fantastic beach house. Thanks!
We loved our stay here back in October!
Beautiful view of the ocean, clean surroundings, amazing host!
Only thing that could have been better was maybe the beds could have been a little softer :)
Otherwise, perfect! You won’t regret staying here!!
My second time staying at Donovans Reef beach house with my family. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch admiring the beautiful ocean view. The house is well equipped with everything you need for a great time. Walking distance to the beach.
Great location across from beach access. It was nice, clean, and quiet. It had everything we needed for a week vacation. Pier was a short walk down the beach drive.
The only things i would add are wall tvs in bedrooms, ice maker in refrigerator, closets or armoire in the bedrooms, and towel hangers in bathrooms.
This cozy cottage is perfectly located just steps from the beach and pier. The ocean view is like beach front without the hefty price tag. Holly is an excellent host, prompt to respond with any questions. The home was very clean and the kitchen was well supplied. We enjoyed our stayed and hope to return soon!
The house is exactly what you see in the advertisement it is clean and close to all things related to the beach and surrounding areas. This was my first Vrbo experience and it could not have been more perfect, Holly was very responsive to my inquiries and flexible to my schedule. I will definitely be coming back!!
