This house was perfect for our summer vacation!! Upon arrival, it was incredibly clean and fully stocked with everything we needed for a weeklong trip. The neighborhood felt private, quiet, and safe but was convenient to the beach, restaurants & shops. We loved having the onsite pool which was clean and the perfect size for our family! One of our favorite amenities was the golf cart, included in the rental, that we could use to get pretty much anywhere we wanted to go near 30A. We also took full advantage of the pickleball court, playing almost every night. My kids said this was their favorite trip we’ve ever taken, and I think a big part of that was because of this home! We would love to book this home again in the future!!

A Great Time

The house has a private pool which is great when we didn't want to spend our time finding a spot at the beach. The home also comes with a screened in porch so, say no to bugs while your there. The home is really neat and cozy with the bathroom tv in the master and Beach Luxury Vacations are really great to book with.
