The property is beautiful and comfortable. It was so great to have the pool at the house! The beach only took 7 or 8 minutes to walk to. My family and I had a wonderful stay!

Loved it!

It was a wonderful place to stay for my niece's wedding. Very clean and comfy beds! Renting a golf cart is a must if you don't have a car to get to the beach and restaurants.

Great location for great food, great golf, great beaches.

The beautifully renovated property was a joy to wake up in, and a pleasure to enjoy the company of good friends. I wish I could hire the same company to do renovations at our house in St. Louis. A perfect week.

There was enough space for everyone, and it was very clean. The pool was very fun for days we didn’t go to the beach. Very close to good restaurants and shops.

A couple of friends and myself come down each February for a week of golf. We stayed at fishbait two years ago and loved it’s perfect location for accessing great restaurants and golf courses. The bikes are a great extra paddling to seaside is no problem.

This was our third year staying at fish bait. This was the first year that a smart TV was not available in the main living room. This significantly detracted from our enjoyment. We would like to stay again in February of next year, but we would like the TV upgraded. Otherwise, not so sure. May look around at other properties.

Thank you so much for staying with us again—we truly appreciate your continued loyalty over the past three years! I’m very sorry to hear that the TV setup in the main living room impacted your experience this time. We completely understand how important that can be, especially for relaxing after a day at the beach. I’ve shared your feedback with our team, and we are actively looking into options for upgrading the TV. We would absolutely love to host you again in February and hope to have this improved for your next stay. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back!

Phenomenal Vacation Home

This house was perfect! We had 6 adults and 3 children, and Fish Bait had more than enough space to accommodate our group. The house is beautifully designed and decorated in addition to being spotless. The pool area was excellent as well. We had one issue with a shower, and the property manager had someone out to the home that day to fix the issue. A perfect spot for a getaway with family and/or friends. Highly recommend!

50th Bday celebration

Had a wonderful experience at Fish Bait! Property was even better than the pics, felt very at home and had everything provided that we needed (toilet paper, paper towels, dish pods, laundry detergent). Only a few short blocks to the beach or a quick bike ride. Check in process all done through the hospitality app and we had several texts from rental company ensuring we were satisfied with our stay. Thanks again for a memorable trip, we will be back soon!

The two masters and pool came in handy since we have younger kids and were meeting another couple down there. The house and pool was clean upon arrival. The central location of the house was beneficial wether you rented a golf cart to explore 30A, or walked down to the beach and restaurants.
