My wife and I enjoyed a few days of fishing, shell searching and collecting, wonderful seafood and amazing sunsets! We will certainly be back! The kitchen could use a few more items, but other than that it was perfect for our needs! The owner was very responsive to any questions we had. 5 stars.

This quaint two bedroom townhouse was the peaceful relaxing time I needed. The decorations were so neat and the views from both balconies were spectacular. I really enjoyed it.

Amazing stay!

The house was wonderful. Beautiful views . It was very clean and only a short walk to the ocean. I also appreciate the fact that animals are not allowed. I am very allergic to animals and have a hard time finding a place to stay so we will definitely be back !

Thank you Abe for the review! We look forward to having you again! FYI… I rated you 5 Stars but for some reason the overall is 4. I’m not sure what happened unless I hit the 4 star by accident. You all were definitely 5star guest and VRBO won’t allow me to change it.

A Favorite Spot

There were two couples of us, almost empty nesters, who were looking for an early fall get away, and Beechwood Cottage was ideal. We loved the location, the views, and the comfortable home. We especially enjoyed the screened-in porch - a perfect spot to hang out any time of day. I just hope we'll get to return time and time again.

Beach Getaway

Everything went well with Beachwood Cottage. It was close to the beach and had everything we needed to be comfortable. The only problem we had was there was no hot water in the master shower.

Thank you for your review. I would have loved to have known of the hot water issue during your stay so I could have fixed the problem. I will get with my plumber to address the issue. We hope you chose to come back.

Awesome accommodations & great beach access!

What a great week we had at the Cape! The home was very clean, beds were very comfortable, all the amenities you could ask for and great beach access ( just steps to the beach). Brittany was fantastic to work with, always prompt with her responses & very accommodating! Would highly recommend this place and plan on staying again! Thank you for sharing your little slice of heaven with our family ❤️

First Florida Vacation

House was clean, very nicely decorated and had all the needed supplies at hand. We went to relax and that is exactly what we did. There are a couple of food places close but the others are about 25 minutes away but we drove for pizza and it was delicious. . The beach was just a few steps away was not busy at all. We had a great time!!
