From reservation through checkout, we had a fantastic experience with this property and the management. It was a stunning location with so much to offer. We enjoyed our days in the pool, fishing on the dock, and even had room to enjoy ourselves inside when the weather turned on us. Being a short walk to the beach was just icing on the cake. This was our first experience with any rental site and this experience made me excited to do this again. We are talking about making this a yearly tradition at the very least. The staff was very understanding with all my questions and made sure our visit was outstanding. We had family renting elsewhere and they were jealous of the property we found. Thanks again for all the amazing memories we could not have made without such a beautiful place to stay.
We don’t like. Because it very bad all. The photos do not correspond to reality. The pool is also dirty. The smell in the house is bad. We left on the first day. And no one even thought of returning us at least half of the money. Not recommended.
Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the beautiful property and that everything was great during your stay. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back again soon!

For the amount of money we paid for this property for the week, we expected it to be much nicer. There were many things that needed repair or wouldn't work (sagging deck, fishing dock, fire pit, chairs around the fire pit, outside umbrella, some lights didn't work, the hall bathroom vanity was not connected, kitchen drawers that wouldn't stay closed, etc.) It is an old house with extremely creaking floors. We will not stay again in the future.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear the property did not meet your expectations.
We encourage guests to report any maintenance concerns during their stay so our team has the opportunity to inspect and address them whenever possible. Your comments regarding the deck, dock, outdoor furnishings, lighting, bathroom vanity, kitchen drawers, and other maintenance items have been shared with the property owner for review. As this is an older home, some characteristics, such as the creaking floors, are part of its original construction and charm.
Thank you for your feedback, as it helps us identify areas for improvement, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.

We stayed right after the hurricane. The owner was so generous and made sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. He was quick to clean up some debris from the storm and we had a wonderful time. Beautiful sunsets, dolphins, and close to beach, restaurants, and shopping.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are thrilled to hear that you and your group found the home spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable.

We thank you for your 5-star review & we look forward to welcoming you back for another stay!
This was our first trip to Dallas and this was a great place to stay. It was convenient to downtown and had easy access to the interstate. The property worked well for us as we all had our own space, with the adults downstairs and the 2 teenage boys upstairs. It was so much better than staying in a hotel. The free garage parking was an added bonus. Checking in and out was a breeze. The only suggestion I would make is to install a TV in the downstairs bedroom. I would definitely recommend staying here while in Dallas.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay as you were our guests, but this review may be for another property ;) The house is fabulous & in a great location, however in Daytona Beach and not Dallas. We certainly appreciate your feedback but please note this house is 1 story so there is no downstairs & upstairs. There is ample parking onsite for 5-6 vehicles with the small, single car garage available for motorcycle parking. We thank you for being our guests & for your 5-star review!
Property was as described. Beds were very comfortable and thank goodness we had extra covers as it was very cold our first two nights. There. Some confusion over the fireplace insert for heat which we were not allowed to use and the furnace did not seem to provide much heat, but the company did bring over two small space heaters for us to use. Washing machine and dryer worked well. Basic supplies were available but no extras. Very good location, close to everything. Would stay here again

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear the property was as described, that you found the beds comfortable, and that you enjoyed the convenient location close to everything. It's also great to know the washer and dryer worked well and that you would choose to stay with us again.
We appreciate your patience regarding the unusually cold weather and the heating concerns. We're glad our team was able to promptly deliver space heaters to help keep you comfortable during your stay. As noted in the home information, the fireplace insert is decorative and not available for guest use.
Thank you again for choosing to stay with us. We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit!
Pool area is the best part. We rented expecting to have access to the dock for a boat, but the owners boat took up the only usable spot to get on/off the boat. The door code is VERY annoying. 9 digits is ridiculous. We've stayed at other rentals and it's always just a 4 digit code. Kitchen light stopped working on day 2 or 3. All-in-all it was nice, but for the money I will be looking for something else next time.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the pool area and that you had an overall nice stay.
We're sorry the dock arrangement wasn't what you expected. While the owner's boat was temporarily at the dock during repairs to the boat lift, we did let you know that there was still space available for you to tie up your boat as well. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the entry code and the kitchen light. The kitchen light has since been addressed. Additionally, guests are provided with a help article before arrival that explains how to personalize the entry code to a convenient 3- to 6-digit code.
Thank you again for your feedback. We appreciate your stay and wish you all the best in your future travels.
We visited Daytona for BiketoberFest...House was plenty big for 3 couples and a single rider...only issue was parking for trucks + trailers + motorcycles...with some creative thinking and a super friendly neighbor we were able to work it out...if visiting the area again, I will certainly look this listing up...I just won't have as many vehicles ;-)

Thank you for sharing your experience from your stay during BiketoberFest! We're delighted to hear that the house suited the needs of your group, and it's great that you were able to find a solution for parking with the help of a friendly neighbor.
Your positive feedback is truly appreciated, and we would be honored to host you again if your plans bring you back to the area. Feel free to reach out whenever you decide to return, and we'll do our best to ensure another enjoyable stay, even if you have fewer vehicles next time!
