Beautiful home with plenty of room, well stocked kitchen ! Convenient to beach access which was a plus since we take a lot of beach games to play while on the beach. Our family had a wonderful week together at this house. Hope to do it again .

Thank you so much for your review Marie! It was great to host you and we look forward to next time.
We had a wonderful time staying at A Shell of a Time! The house is in a great location! The beach access was practically across the street! With only a few short steps to the beach, the house included all of the beach chairs, coolers, and sand toys you will need! It is also a quick walk to all of the islands shops, restaurants, and activities. The inside of the house is beautifully decorated and very clean. Everything is brand new! It’s very well organized and has everything you will need. The pool and outdoor tiki bar are very relaxing. The refrigerator in the garage made it very accessible to get to our drinks while lounging poolside. The elevator also made it very convenient to get our luggage up two flight of stairs. We can’t wait for our next vacation at A Shell of a Time!
