This was the ideal property for a large group. The common areas accommodated our family of 13, which I have found is rare. We loved the game room and pool. When we had an issue with the air conditioning, we received prompt service. Overall, it was an extraordinary place to stay

Great for families

Loved the location, quiet neighborhood. Very clean which is important to us. Lots of large towels. Pool with slide and game room were great! Large kitchen table and extra island seating was great.Negatives: outside shower not working, fridge ice maker not working, furniture tired. Given wrong door code and WiFi info. So had to call and wait for a new code.

Great house! Great Spot!

Great and spacious house perfect for our objective. Accommodate a very large number of people and just a very short walking distance from the beach and the town. Outdoor cleaning between guests was a little lacking. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company.

Burris Triplets Turn 80

Everything was wonderful for the most part, the beach house was spacious with plenty of room for everyone including the children. We really enjoyed the game room and the salt water pool. The living room and kitchen was open and great for entertainment the only thing that was frowned upon was the ice maker doesn’t work and looking from previous reviews it’s been that way for a couple of years. When we arrived we were told that the grass would be cut but that didn’t happen and the yard really needed to be maintained the grass was really high and we couldn’t really enjoy the entirety of the pool area. Very nice stay and would definitely rent again.

Great house for a large group

We had a large group of extended family gather for a week. The house was the perfect fit for us. We cooked dinner several times in the huge kitchen and found everything we needed. The saltwater pool and the water slide was amazing and we used it every day. There were lots of beach chairs and accessories available for our use in the garage. It was a short walk to the beach and not far from the boardwalk. We didn’t have any issues during our stay. A great time was had by all!

Overall this was a nice property. It is older and has steep stairs but other than initial cleanliness (which was OK but not great) and a nonfunctioning ice maker, we found it comfortable for our family. The area pool is very nice and the beach is a short work away. We also found a walking path about five blocks west of the house that was very pleasant for morning & evening strolls---just be careful of alligators in the ponds along the way!

Hi Thomas, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're happy to hear your compliments and hope that you made yourselves right at home. That being said, we do apologize for the non functioning ice maker and cleanliness issues you encountered. It appears that one of our agents did connect with you to assist you on the ice maker, but you declined to have our vendor fix it. Please let us assure you that our local Operations Team will make sure any outstanding issues are resolved to prevent similar problems moving forward. By the way, you were perfect guests, and we appreciate you taking care of our place as if it were your own. Please come back and visit us again at any time.
