Great Spot

We rented the Mermaid house for a long weekend and loved the view!! Our semi private beach (shared with the other rental) was perfect. The owners dog was the star of the show! He is the cutest guy and got along with the two pups we had in our group. Great communication with Joycelyn and would recommend anyone to stay there.

By far the best place we have stayed at

Unfortunately we were only there for one night but and that is my only complaint. Hostess was amazing at communicating and super kind. House was super clean and had everything we needed and more. There are some amazing activities like boats, playing on the beach (they even had toys to play in the sand), inside games, hot tub, and so much more. 100% would suggest staying here with your family!

Stay Away

Worse experience ever - false advertising, no air conditioning and the host walks around at night taking pictures of guests through the window. First and last time using VRBO and definitely last time staying here. Do yourself a favor and stay away!
