This home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and truly had everything we needed. The location was perfect close to everything so we never had to drive far. We also loved that the hosts provided beach essentials like coolers, a wagon, toys, and chairs. It made our trip so much easier since we didn’t have to buy anything. Overall, an amazing stay and we would absolutely book again.

The host was great, and the house was lovely and well-appointed. We especially loved the backyard (except for the pesky Mockingbird, who sang all day long!!). The driveway is steep and narrow, but that’s a minor inconvenience. We definitely would stay here again!

We visited from Tennessee for a week with the kids and this was a good choice to stay at. It made it much more relaxing after being at the beach and other activities to come back and relax.

Our two little doggies had the best time out in the fenced in yard! It was so easy for them!The house was clean, warm and cozy! It had lots of space in which to relax, including the outdoor space. The steep driveway was the only negative aspect. Everything else was great. I would recommend this house!

This property is amazing! Melissa made sure the there is nothing lacking. Plenty of dishes, applicance, towels, blankets, etc. Fully equipped and perfect for our 3 week stay. While the home is a little older, it was immaculate and extemely clean. Comfortable furniture and a welcoming feel! The backyard is adorable, and very well maintained as well. It was wonderful to sit out back and enjoy the FL weather at the end of the day. The neighborhood is extremely quiet and peaceful! Will definately reserve again. This is a GEM of a place!

Wonderful stay away from home

We loved our stay here. So close to the ballpark to see our Phillies Spring Training. We grilled at night and enjoyed the wonderful backyard where we relaxed every night. Melissa was a wonderful host and very communicative. The home was clean and truly felt like our home away from home. We will definitely stay here again next year!
