Love that Rooms have their own bathrooms and on opposite sides of the house, providing more privacy. Good area close to beach. Front and back door give you good access to your vehicle making it convenient to unload and load belongings and not having to go up stairs to get in home. K cup and regular coffee pot. Refrigerator makes ice. Good idea to to bring a baby gate to prevent little ones from playing on stairs. We loved this place so much. Already planning on staying here when we return.

This was a great spot for our family of 8. Loved being so close to the boardwalk and beach and that everyone had their own bed! The only thing that was odd was that this is the first time we’ve stayed in a rental like this and not been provided with spices for cooking (salt and pepper) as well as no coffee or filters. They did tell us that they wouldn’t be there so we could prepare at least. There is a Keurig and a coffee pot machine. The mosquitoes are next level, so bring your big spray!! I also highly recommend getting a golf cart. Makes it so much easier to get your things to the beach via the boardwalk. Overall, this was the perfect spot and we would definitely stay here again.

I love this property. It was awesome and met most of my families needs. I would only suggest, bring extra blankets, pillows and towels cause the house did not provide any extras. Also, there are only two TVs in the house—living room and kids room. I kind of wish they had one in master room so my grandkids could watch tv. I love the game room in garage and extra chairs to use at the beach. By far one of the best rentals I have had at Port A. The pool was nice too so and kids enjoyed fishing in the ponds nearby.

Cute Beach Getaway

We absolutely loved our stay and the convenience of getting to and from the beach. Great price and just a couple of neighborhoods away from Cinnamon Shores. This house was very comfortable and our kids LOVED the access to the garage with foosball and Ping-Pong. The only recommendation is to bring your own beach towels, we couldn't find any on site. Otherwise this rental had absolutely everything. We are already starting to plan our next trip to this house.
