This property was just as described, kitchen nicely stocked, very clean throughout and beautiful view of the ocean and beach. It is located perfectly along the beach for close proximity to restaurants and stores, but just far enough away for quaint privacy for your shoreline. I would highly recommend and we will definitely be back!!

Reviewer Comments:
This is a nice property, no issues other than the bed in master which had a under support,that would not work and the guest only had a full size bed. We give everything else a great rating... T/Y
Great ocean front beach house. House was advertised. Beautiful view of the ocean and beach. Easy access steps away to the beach. Would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful vacation.
Great place - our second time to stay here. Perfect size for our family of 4. Love how close it is to the beach and away from more populated areas. Lift is an amazing amenity. Kitchen well stocked.

Location and house were great! The WI-FI is slow and needs to be upgraded. The toilets would continuously run, but we knew how to fix it each time. The next guests may not know how to though. That was the only two things. Beds were so comfy! Had everything we needed and fully stocked! The view was amazing!

Cute home right on beach! Very well stocked with all necessities. The bunk room being located in the Master bedroom closet was a little awkward with teens and beds were uncomfortable. But, these few things would definitely not stop us from stayong again!!

Boliver Peninsula is he most peaceful place we have visited. The house was perfect, right on the beach and had everything we needed for a perfect vacation. The folks at Cobb rental were easy to work with. We will definitely put this one at the top of our choices for future vacations.

Great rental in a good area with less beach traffic. The cargo lift was helpful getting luggage and supplies inside. The mattress in the 2nd bedroom was very soft, so anyone with back issues may not like that, but overall, we had a wonderful time and will be back.

We had a lovely stay in 2 Miami. We loved the master bedroom, bathroom and huge closet. The kitchen was well equipped and the lift was extremely helpful. We spent a great amount of time on the patio watching the waves. We loved being right on the beach where we could easily walk back and forth to the house.

We had such a great vacation this summer at the 2 Miami. It's a charming home with character. The lift was a convenient perk and I loved the side covered porch. The outside needs some paint and love but the recent hurricane probably contributed to the wear and tear. We weren't able to use the outdoor shower, it was torn apart but we made do! My husband was very fond of the charcoal grill, he said it was handmade. We never even went out to eat! We had a blast and made some great memories!

This place was awesome! We aren't crowd people and this home is in a perfect location. Just far enough from the major beach areas, but close enough to get to shopping and restaurants. Easy beach access and the views are fantastic. The home is well maintained, very clean and has all the things you need. Our only downside was the main bedroom bed was too soft. Well worth the price. We also love the friendly and helpful people at Cobb Real Estate!

2 Miami is a house with charm. It was clean but could use some upgrades.The views from every room are amazing. We loved the easy access to the beach and that the location was not crowded. We will definitely rent this house again. We have used Cobb Real Estate for our Crystal Beach rentals for years. They are professional, friendly, and respond quickly to any issues we have ever had with any rentals.
We were due to arrive the day after Hurricane Beryl. After a few days’ delay because the coast was without power, we finally began our journey. Cobb was flexible with our dates, accommodating a later checkout due to the late start. Other challenges were thrown their way, such as the air conditioning breaking before our arrival, and then the power in the neighborhood going out again. Their solution, just before our arrival, was to upgrade us to a larger house with operable electrical and air conditioning. We had a great time and really appreciated them going above and beyond to ensure we were still able to enjoy the 6-night stay that we’d planned.

Reviewer Comments:
The house was in great condition and having the lift for beach gear was an awesome addition. Since it's dog friendly we were able to bring our dogs with us and they had so much fun vacationing with us. Plenty of cookware and the grill was very clean and usable. The fire pit also came in very handy for those romantic nights. The house did have two issues that should be considered. I worked during the day and the Wifi seemed to be very slow. Also, a patio cover would be a great addition because most days were too windy for the umbrella. Other than that, it was an outstanding stay and we'll be back for sure. The owners should be very proud of this home.

We had a fantastic stay at MIAMI 2! What a beautiful cabin. It was perfect for us! We loved the quiet beachfront area. It was nice to not be in the middle of the Crystal Beach crowds. We loved the beachfront view and being able to walk right out onto the beach. The cabin was super well equipped too! We’ll definitely be back. I do question the owner’s choice to have a large bowl of broken asbestos siding on the fireplace as decoration. Asbestos is a known hazard. Maybe consider putting it in one of those large (closed) glass jars instead.
