Absolutely the best stay! We have stayed at many beach uses on the island and this by far was one of our favorites! So many accommodations you literally didnt have to bring anything! Super close to the beach and all stores, places to eat. The host was amazing to deal with. It made our time of spending Thanksgiving with family so enjoyable will definitely be booking again!

All the things….

Coast Bound and Down have thought of all the details. They help you pack lighter by having chairs, wagon, tent, sand toys, coolers, grills and games to name a few! Not to mention super comfy pillows and beds (the queen bunk room is a must for the kiddos) were great after an evening in the hot tub while enjoying the peaceful bottom area. We didn’t want for a thing during our stay. We can’t wait to go back!

Birthday trip

This is a wonderful property. We had four couples for the weekend celebrating two birthdays. The house was plenty big for everyone to spread out, and everything was immaculate. The games outside were a great addition for when it was too hot to be on the beach. The host checked in by email and made sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely book this place again!

Such an amazing trip!!

The beach house was BEAUTIFUL with so many amenities! They had so many things to use in the kitchen if needed, so many outside items to play/use(although our only disappointment was not finding the wood burning pit there anymore, but a gas one was provided with extra propane thankfully because it was empty.), and such an easy walk to the beach! We appreciated the beach chairs provided, and used every bit of the space while there! Morning coffee and reading on the deck was a joy. Thank you for a beautiful stay!

The beach house was perfect. Spacious for 6 adults & 5 children 2-17! The owners have thought of & provided everything you need! We made a lot of food & the spacious frig was fantastic & held everything. The downstairs frig made easy acess for beach drinks. Everyone loved the hot tub & game area. Beds were extremely comfy & beautifully furnished. Washer & dryer was handy & had all the detergents too. This is one of the very best rentals we have experienced. We walked 2 minutes to the beach a lot! Book it you will love it!

We stayed here with four families, including six kids ranging in age from 2 to 11, and it was absolutely perfect for our group. We specifically wanted a home that was close to the beach but not directly on it, so we didn’t have to worry about the kids wandering off unsupervised. This house was just right… a short, easy walk to Crystal Beach, and we could still enjoy beach views from the kitchen and front patio.The layout was ideal: two king bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a fun bunk room that the kids absolutely loved. The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials… pots, pans, utensils, wine glasses, a cutting board, and more which made cooking and dining together a breeze.The downstairs area was a great bonus, complete with a bar and seating. We had a blast making s’mores around the fire pit, and the kids especially enjoyed playing the oversized checker game in the living room. Everything was very clean, and any time we had questions, the host was quick to respond.We had a fantastic stay and would definitely book this house again in the future!

Overall great stay. Would provide more bath towels. But the beach towels were nice and thick. Did not like sitting outside and smelling the sewer and noticed the red light was on. But the beach chairs and games you provide were appreciated. The floor could have been swept and mopped better and there was a 2 dirty plates in the cupboard but over all cleanliness was good. I would stay again.

As for the septic, my apologies, I wish I would have known of the smell and that the light was on while you were there, I would have had it serviced right away! Fortunately it has been serviced since your stay. I’m glad y’all enjoyed the games and beach chairs came in handy, we look forward to hosting your group again.

Exceptional Beach Home

I cannot say enough good things about this rental. The owners have thought of anything and everything you could possibly need on your stay. The house is beautifully decorated with the most comfortable furniture. Even the outside furniture is over the top comfy! Everything looked and felt meticulously clean. Besides being just a short walk to the beach, there were plenty of outdoor games in the storage area to play after a long day at the beach. The Blackstone grill was clean and ready to go with all necessary utensils. This house can easily accommodate a large crowd and is perfect for kids. Easy check in/out. The best house I've rented by far...

Lovely Views in a Beautiful Home

We rented this house for Thanksgiving week. When we walked in the home was decorated beautifully for Christmas. It set the tone for the week right away. The home is open and spacious and furnished well. The rooms are bright and the beds are comfortable. The bathrooms were well supplied. We loved being so close to the beach and being able to hear the ocean from the deck as well as the house if you opened the windows. The outdoor area is fantastic. The hot tub was a wonderful treat and warming up by the fire pit was cozy and festive. Plenty of games for kids and adults and everything you would need for a beach day was located in the garage. All in all it was a fantastic trip and this house made our stay even better. The host was amazing. So responsive to all of my questions. On the first night I was looking for the blender lid and could not find it. I messaged the host and was told that a new blender would be sent! How cool is that? The next day a new blender arrived for us to use the rest of the trip. Such amazing care and attention to the details. Thank you for a wonderful time celebrating with family.
