Tonia was very easy and pleasant to work with and the house was beautifully done and very well equipped. There were also extra touches that you don’t always see in rentals. Coffee supplies, shower supplies, even a bicycle to use! The bonus room is a great extra living space, as well. I would highly recommend this rental for families!

Great stay and location

We had a wonderful stay. Close to downtown and Rodie’s restaurant, our favorite breakfast location. The communication was great with the property manager and she was great about answering quickly with any questions. There was plenty of room. Also if you are staying with small children, there are lots of baby supplies such as a highchair, etc. we will be staying again when we come to FL.

Visit for 90th birthday

House was Very Clean. It was my first time staying at a rental house and was extremely happy with all of the amenities in the house. We hosted a dinner for my Aunts 90th birthday and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Location was perfect. Close to parks/ beaches and the sponge docks.

Beautiful home in a great location

Home was very clean and spacious. Every basic item was provided and the host was very responsive and helpful. Only issue was a minor one with check-in but that was on VRBO sending check-in info to the wrong guest so I had to ask for check-in info. House is a short distance to Sunset Beach and grocery stores and restaurants. If your vehicle is larger, maneuvering the curvy driveway is a little bit of a challenge but do-able. Would definitely choose this home if ever staying in the area again.

The Best

This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed in! Tonia has thought of everything! And I mean EVERYTHING! It’s clean, amazingly organized, well stocked with extra things like toilet paper , trash bags, and paper towel! It is SO much bigger than it looks on the VRBO app!! It also came with two bikes! We had fun riding into town and exploring!Tonia was also extremely quick and easy to communicate with throughout our visit!
