This home is excellent, since it has two bedrooms on one side of the house and two on the other, which is excellent to help give the parents and children some separate space. The location is excellent, short walk to the ocean and a short walk to the Intracoastal Waterway. This home is one of the few that has a crow's nest or lookout section on the very top of the house so you can see far and wide and sit there peacefully in the morning with your cup of coffee. The host Jenn was very responsive and very accommodating!
Love this house! It was very clean & had everything we needed! The location was great, too! One of my favorite things about the house was the outdoor shower with hot water!! And the decks are amazing - loved spending time with the family on each one! Jen is the best hostess - so thoughtful & the communication was great!!
We very much enjoyed our stay at Jenn and Drew’s home. The house had everything we needed and more. It was very clean and comfortable. Jenn is very nice and communicates promptly. She even mailed our grandson’s sweatshirt that we left behind, and she assisted us with a mixup with VRBO. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
This property is gorgeous, the listing does not do it justice! The attention to detail anticipating what their guests might need is outstanding. The rooftop deck has stunning views and don't forget the outdoor shower 😉. I will definitely book again!
This home could not have been better stocked- there was every item you could imagine…. Beach chairs, toys, floats- all the things you hate to pack. The kitchen had everything and MORE! Beds were comfy and even great pillows. It was tastefully decorated and a nice central family area with a nice large dining table. There is nothing to want for once you arrive. We all had a great time!

The Best place we have stayed for a family vacation
From the start of booking the process, the hosts were responsive and accommodating. The check in process was easy and the hosts left us a note, chocolates, and a floral arrangement.
We have a large family and our son who is stationed at the base just had a baby with his wife. The space was large enouh to host a thanksgiving meal with space but also being able to be in the same room to be together.
Views from the top porch was amazing. Having coffee on the covered porch was relaxing. Access to an elevator was helpful to older members of our family but also to the new parents and the baby. They also had some supplies for going to the beach which was something we didn't think to bring.
We can't praise the hosts and house enough. Highly recommend the hosts, price, location,etc.
