Stayed the weekend with our kids and some friends for a quick trip before school started. We really enjoyed the house and it’s proximity to the beach and to the Margaritaville resort. The golf cart was perfect for our group as well.

Nice getaway

The property had everything we needed for our stay. It was close to the beach and the yard was a huge plus for the kids. I would definitely rent this place again. The only thing that I would advise is the beds are not the most comfortable because of the noise, other than that it was prefect.

Great cottage!

This place was very clean and comfortable and well stocked. The owners really aim to please their guests. This was one of the best rentals we have stayed in over the years. Inside and out, the attention to detail was awesome. We especially like the no pet rule. We hope to stay here again in the future.
