Thank you so much for the 4-star review! We are so glad to hear that you loved the house and enjoyed all the amenities during your stay.
It was a true pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better, 5-star experience on your next visit!
House and pool were great. Front yard smelled like sewage plant, just the front yard area and driveway where we parked. Whole area infested with no seeums, bite and itch, not just house everywhere we went.

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are pleased to hear that you found the house and pool to be great!
Regarding the front yard, we want to clarify that a portion of the front area contains the septic field. Because our islands are natural, coastal environments, shifting weather and humidity can occasionally cause odors to trap near the driveway and drainage areas, though the system itself is located far away from the home.
Additionally, because of our beautiful, natural island setting, mosquitoes and no-see-ums are unfortunately a native part of the local ecosystem everywhere you go in the area, especially during certain seasons. We always recommend guests bring or purchase high-quality insect repellent to stay comfortable while exploring the island. We appreciate your stay and your feedback!
Thank you for your fantastic review! We're thrilled you loved your stay and appreciated the perfect beach access. That's what makes our location so special!
We hope to welcome you back for another wonderful beach getaway soon.
Very spacious, great house for families looking to get together and still have their own rooms! Beautiful sunrise from the first floor and master bedroom! Easy walk to the beach!

Thank you so much! We are so happy to hear that the house provided plenty of space for your family to be together comfortably. Watching the sunrise from the master bedroom is one of our favorite ways to start the day, so we are thrilled you got to experience it! We hope to welcome you back for more beach walks soon.
We really loved snook away! I’ve been visiting the island since I was 2 and have stayed in several homes. This one accommodated our family the best. My kids weren’t crammed into small rooms, my parents each had their own room, and we were able to spread out and come together when we wanted. The house has a great kitchen appliance and dinnerware selection. We made many meals at home and I was able to bake a birthday cake during the visit. I would recommend a regular 12 cup coffee maker for larger families. The k cups aren’t very economical and it’s more convenient to have a large pot ready. We had great weather for the beach and enjoyed the pool in the evenings. The house had beach chairs, wagons, towels, and fishing poles. The walk to the beach was a little much for my aging parents but we consolidated our beach gear and it was doable. The house was clean and communication was great. It is very affordable too. We had no issues. I would suggest updating some of the bed skirts and curtains. Overall 5 stars and we will be back!

Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review! Knowing that you’ve been visiting the island since you were two years old, it is an absolute honor that Snook Away stands out as the home that accommodated your family the best!
We are thrilled that the layout gave everyone—from your parents to the kids—plenty of space to spread out and enjoy time together. It’s also fantastic to hear that the kitchen was fully equipped for your family meals, and we are so glad you were able to bake a birthday cake during your stay! Happy belated birthday to whoever celebrated!
Thank you so much for the excellent suggestions. A traditional 12-cup coffee maker is a fantastic idea for larger groups, and we will absolutely look into adding one to the kitchen to make mornings more convenient. We will also be reviewing the bed skirts and curtains for a quick refresh.
We are glad the beach gear and wagons helped make the walk manageable for your parents and that you all got to enjoy those beautiful beach days and evening pool sessions.
It was a true pleasure hosting your family, and we cannot wait to welcome you all back to Snook Away for another memorable island tradition!
Pool filter needs replacing. Have a pool skimmer handy. Provide 10-12 cup coffee maker. Pool service should be on a Saturday. Have Septic looked at. Have cushions for all lounge chairs.

Thank you for staying with us and for providing such detailed feedback. We take maintenance seriously, and I’m happy to share that we’ve already addressed several of your points: a new 12-cup coffee maker is now in the kitchen, and our pool team is scheduled to replace the filter and add a skimmer for guest use.
We’ve also reached out to our septic and pool service providers to optimize their schedules and ensure everything is in top shape. We appreciate you helping us improve the experience for future guests and hope to welcome you back to a fully refreshed stay soon!
We had a wonderful stay at Snook's Away. There was plenty of space for our large family vacation. The pool is well-maintained and was used every day. The kitchen is well-appointed and perfect for cooking for a large group. The access to beach was convenient. We also appreciate the communication with the managing team. It made our stay stress free. We hope to return for an additional stay! Thank you!
