Spring Break Perfection!

This was a fabulous house! It is SO close to the beach (right by the walkover) and our kids could run back and forth if needed. Communication with the owner was amazing. We have already talked about booking it again !!

Perfection!

I’m so glad we found Sonshine. It was perfect for our family—directly across from walkover was ideal with small children. Katie & Cathy were a pleasure to communicate with. You can tell this is their home and not just a sterile/basic rental. They had everything we needed and then some! Our kids thought this was the best place ever! Thank you!!

Will be back!

Sonshine was all we could hope for. There was room for the entire family including 5 adults, 2 kids under5 and two infants under 1. The beach was literally across the street and we spent every morning walking before morning naps. We were also very close to shops and restaurants along “30A” yet had a lovely quiet home to return to. Thank you Katie!
