Fantastic vacation!

Our stay at Shore-E-Nuff was all that we had hoped! The house is comfortable and has plenty of room. The views and accessibility are spectacular. Having 2 toddlers and a 9-month-old ~ the ease of being able to come back and forth from the beach was a life-saver! I can definitely see us returning!

Stayed for seven nights over the labor day holiday. Great location. Could not be closer to the beach. Clean and is filled with pots, pans, utensils and beach stuff. Rivard folks easy to work with. Several restaurants within walking distance. Would definitely stay there again.

Lovely Vacation

House was exactly as pictured. Very clean and beds were super comfy! Had our own private beach access. Could not believe how stocked the kitchen was. We had one tiny issue with a broken chair - management was there very quickly to take care of it. Would rent this home again.

Will happily book again

Great house that felt cozy and fun! Extremely well stocked with everything we could need, private beach access, and lovely neighborhood close to restaurants, grocery, etc. We especially appreciated the abundance of rooms that had queen/king beds; our group was 3 adult couples and one set of kids, so that was a huge plus! (so many of these beach houses are heavily weighted toward the twin/bunk rooms and skimpy on rooms for grown ups!) Many thanks for a great time.

Oceanfront Escape

This house was perfect for our family! Right on the beach with chair and umbrella service provided. There was some work being done on the home after a recent storm, and the management service communicated proactively and throughout our stay to ensure we were able to still enjoy our time. The gated community was very quiet. Great escape for our family! Highly recommend Emerald Coast Island Excursions for a boating while you are there!

Shore E Nuff - Not long enough!!

We Loved the place. Everything we could think of that we needed was available. Especially loved the large ice machine. Beds were comfortable. Beautiful beach view. The house was perfect for my family. Unfortunately, it was the week of Hurricane Sally, so we were forced to leave too early in the trip. Hoping of going back to this same place again soon

House kitchen supplies were awsom but there was some things that could be a lot better

Upon arrival we couldnt get in. We were told someone would come fix door and were never told if that did in fact happen we didnt know about it so we had to leave a door unlocked to come and go. Which was fine we were just at the beach. Upon enterong someone coke half drank was left up stairs other than tgat it appeared clean. The stove the far right knob is broke internally so you had to be cautious to get the gas turned off. It also striggled on all burners to actually light and get igniter to go off and stop clicking. The toilets were a constant thing to get them to stop continously running. The ice maker has tons of svale and nastyness. I notice after we filled a cooler with ice how dirty the bottom of ice make was. Then loiked i. The area where the ice was made and it is in need of cleaning. In the living room there was a spot in the carpet where it looks like a dog may have peed.the outside door going to beach is hard to shut. I would say parking is more like 2 cars possibly 3 at most. The steps walking from carport in and deck from screen porch to beavh are very slick when wet. I feel once by carport area and my kiddo feel once down beach stairs. We are fine but diffinitly need so coating of nonslip paintThe houses cutely decorated Seemed clean other than what i mentioned above. Nice beach area and loved the screened porch. There was tons of cooking pot pans ect which was very nice. Overall i would stay there again. For the cost i think things need a little maintance.

Do Not Rent Anytime Soon - Vacation Ruined

First the good, the area is gorgeous and the house is in a perfect location. We arrived on a Sunday and had an amazing day. Monday morning at 7 am the construction crew showed up The houses are on top of each other in the neighborhood, so 4 ft from every bedroom windows the hammering and power tools went from 7 am to 6 pm. He only break they took was when my 14 year old daughter, her friend and my wife walked out in their bathing suites. Then they all stopped and stared and commented to each other. We figured “it’s one day, Monday. It will stop”. Tuesday came same issue. We reached out through the app. 3 hours to get the response. “Hi sorry I’ll let management know”. Nothing, crickets after that. I reached back out with “Hey Miguel, guess upper management didn’t care”. Sometime the next day (possibly later that night) I received a message saying “sorry the listing says rates are discounted due to construction”. That’s it. First of all we did not get a discount, the rate is in line if not a bit more pricey that other similar homes. I suppose this slick move would hold up if I challenged it, but super scummy. I called and talked to Chase, who answered the main phone line and was as worthless as a doorknob. We could not sleep past 7, could not read a book, could not read work. My girls were so uncomfortable that it ruined spring break. Zero compassion Let me be clear. I realize construction happens. Maybe let people know they are literally framing an entire home during spring break. Don’t tell me you don’t know what “stage of construction” the house is in. That’s bs. Also be responsive. We rent high end homes frequently and have never experienced a more pathetic host. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY. READ THE YELP REVIEWS FIRST. WISH I WOULD HAVE.

Ryan, We do apologize that you did not enjoy most if your stay. Unfortunately there is nothing that can be done as you stated. Once we are informed construction has started we discounted the home and added verbiage and photos to the sites. We cannot predict construction plans in the area and therefore, cannot be held responsible for any inconvenience. Please do not let this deter you from using our services in the future as we strive to make each guests stay as comfortable and problem free as possible. We hope that your travels bring you back soon. Thank you for choosing Ocean Reef Resorts!

Easy beach house

Very easy to settle into. They had everything you needed to cook big meals and sit down for dinner as a family. The house was a tad overdecorated (every surface covered with seashells) and the furniture accommodated everyone but made maneuvering around a bit tight. We had 7 people, I wouldn't have more than 8 to be comfortable.

Perfect house!

We absolutely loved our stay at Shore ENuff! We have stayed all along 30A for over 10 years and this home did not disappoint! The location in a quaint gated community is fantastic on one of the most beautiful stretches of beach all along the coast! The home had a kitchy beachy vibe and the beds were very comfortable. I sincerely appreciated all the "extras" the owner provided and the wonderful welcome tote bag! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you could need. Many rental properties only have the basics. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

Amazing House on the Beach

You can't get any closer to the beach if you tried! This property was beautiful. The house was wonderful and the view was just breath taking. Literally we had our own walk way down to the beach that made it so easy with a family with small children. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen and laundry room was well stocked with the essentials to get you started. I would highly recommend this property to all my family and friends. I would love to bring back my family! The weather was great too!

Exceptional stay

This was our second year to stay in Shor-E-Nuf, our 14th stay in Old Florida Beach. It is a warm, homey, exceptionally well appointed house with all the usual amenities plus parking for 4 cars, a screen porch and a private walkway to the beach with a sitting area at the top of the steps . Our young people love the two upstairs balconies. Easy access to lots of local restaurants, a grocery store and beach equipment rentals.

Nice cottage-right on beach-great kitchen.

We would give Shor-E-Nuf a 5 except the code to enter did not work and Rivard Realty left us waiting (after we talked with them) for over 2 hours. We were only able to enter because a nice neighbor called the owner who solved our problem. Great cottage, well equipped kitchen, neighborhood is great. Also good beach access. Nice screened porch.

Hi Marie, We are glad to hear you enjoyed the property and had a nice vacation. We are certainly sorry to hear about the inconvenience you faced with the door lock. While the electronic door locks are a great feature, unfortunately like with all technology problems can occur every once in a blue moon. We do apologize if there was a delay, however we did respond to you as soon as the after hours emergency answering service dispatched us your call. We hope this hiccup did not cast a dark cloud over what sounds like to be a great vacation. Best wishes, The Rivard Team
