We had an amazing time in this house with a short watch across the street to the beach. The host company was very attentive and sent updates every morning on beach and weather conditions for the day and making sure we were not having any issues with the house.

Excellent!!

Our stay at The Osprey was excellent!! After the first night, my son in law commented that it was the best night of sleep he’d ever had on vacation. The location was outstanding - deeded beach access was right across the street and the grandkids had a blast fishing on the pier and swimming in the pool. The kitchen was very well stocked with pots and pans, utensils, coffee maker, etc. Washing machine and dryer were upstairs, which was perfect. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Experience

We had a wonderful time at "Osprey" The beach access was tremendous. Less than a three minute walk and beach at the point is perfect. Dock and pool are great. Fishing and many activities for the family. Highly recommend Osprey for a great getaway!

Close to beach

Enjoyed the house being close to the beach while also having a pool and lagoon access. Took at advantage of the free daily tickets offered to go on a dolphin cruise. A/C did go out the last night we were there, maintenance responded to replace the thermostat batteries but unfortunately that did not fix the issue as hoped so it was hot when we woke up and while we packed up to head home.

Our stay here

We had a great time. We did have to sweep when we first got there because we would walk around and feel sand all over our feet and could see the dust and dirt under the couch. We didn’t mind that though simple thing to fix. It was convenient location from the beach and an easy walk to the lagoon. We did have a few times when we left that other people that stayed across from us were at our house when we were pulling back up. They were hanging out where you park the cars. We didn’t like that just because it felt like an invasion of privacy. This was no fault to this place though. It had everything we needed to make breakfast. We loved getting to sit on the balcony as well. Plenty of room for my 7 year old and 4 year old to play and stay comfortable. We enjoyed the free activities email and did the Southern Rose dolphin cruise. I highly recommend that one as well. We definitely would consider staying here again.

Thank you, Kaitlyn! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a wonderful stay at The Osprey. It's fantastic to know that the location was convenient and ideal for your activities, and that the property had everything you needed for a comfortable stay. We apologize for the sand and dust upon arrival, and we appreciate your understanding. It's unfortunate to hear about the privacy concern, and we're grateful you brought it to our attention. We're delighted you and your family enjoyed the balcony and the Southern Rose dolphin cruise. We look forward to welcoming you back for another enjoyable visit!

Spacious adorable cottage with beach access!

Let me just say this is a beautifully decorated and designed cottage. It has a spacious kitchen and dining room with a huge island and plenty of bar stools. The bathrooms were very nice. The master bathroom was beautiful and had double sinks and a center vanity. We particularly enjoyed the brick street between cottages that enabled our kids to play outside where we could watch them from the balconies and not have to worry about a lot of traffic. The pool was nice although if you want sun you have to get there in the morning because the high rises on either side will shade it for most of the day. We also enjoyed the gas grill (provided) and the string/hook game and picnic table on the carport. The only negative was that the unit wasn’t cleaned when we arrived, but after reporting it, they had it cleaned within an hour and also refunded the cleaning fee. (Thank you!) Things happen that are uncontrollable and I was pleased with how they handled the situation. We were able to take the kid to The Gulf and splurge on some fancy cocktails, dinner, and the photo booth which was totally worth the wait. Very pleased with this cottage!

Thanks so much, Savana! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed your stay at The Osprey and appreciated the beautiful decor, spacious kitchen, and the lovely master bathroom. We’re delighted that the brick street allowed your kids to play safely and that you enjoyed the pool, gas grill, and other amenities. We apologize for the initial oversight with the cleaning, but we’re glad we could resolve it quickly to your satisfaction. It sounds like you had a wonderful time at The Gulf as well. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
