Pros and cons

Overall, it worked for what we needed. There were plenty of bedrooms. Pros- living and dining room offer plenty of space for a large group. The hall baths were bigger than they looked in the pictures; it was close to the beach (with a golf cart) and easy to get to town on the golf cart as well. The pool and poker room were great to have the group spread out. Cons- The kitchen was small and lacked some basics so make sure to bring anything you may need to cook (including utensils to eat). The en suite bathrooms were SO small. Like there was nowhere to put your toiletries bag or towel or clothes. Technically it’s “walking distance” to the beach, but it’s a long gross walk. Check in was easy and loved the keypad access.

Great for larger groups

We booked the upstairs unit as there is a downstairs one also…yes we got lucky and had the whole property to ourselves but it was later in the season. You get the bonus poker room located across the porch so the late night people can do their own thing and not bother anyone which is a super cool addition we weren’t expecting. We opted for the golf carts the owner owns which makes things super easy and let me also add it’s 3 minutes to the beach and about 10 to center of town which is perfect. Pool is small but I’ve seen smaller so no complaints there because we came for the beach right? With temps alMost 100 the a/c did not disappoint and the view from the top level was nice. Overall this spot was great for my company retreat and we all had some space. Pricing was very reasonable and great communication with the owner who will come meet you in person which was very cool. Thanks for the good time and we will be back!

Great

We stayed with extended family so the set up with rooms on both sides of the house worked well. Very short walk to the beach. Could be better stocked with utensils etc but overall very comfortable.

1st family beach reunion

6 children - 2 almost three year olds 7 adults We fit comfortably into the space and sitting areas/ TVs/ beds great. For one of little ones we put the mattress on the floor. the rest of the kids loved the bunk beds. We used the game room as a grandparents escape from chaos area - very nice when bedtime didn't require our presence. Kitchen utensils and pans were a bit redundant, but everything you need is there. Future guest advised to bring all condiments/ salt/ sugar/coffee and oil. Pizza, snow cones and golf carts are next door. Beach is 2 blocks - not too crowded for this early June vacation

A family beach gathering

We really enjoyed our family gathering at the beach house. We had a very large group so we rented the entire property. It was large enough for all adult couples to have their own bedroom and bathroom. Lots of space for the kids to sleep comfortably in the bunk rooms. It was everything we had wanted for our gathering. We rented golf carts - which made the beach access a breeze. The pool is fully in the shade in the late afternoons so we could enjoy the pool after a day at the beach. The property management was quick to respond when we had one issue. I highly recommend.
