Second time staying at Judy’s and we loved it. LBTS is a great town and we will stay at no other place than at Judy’s. Super clean, great warm pool, quiet neighborhood and the Circuit saves you the short walk to the restaurants and bars. Thanks again Judy for a great vacation and we will be back!!Adam & Stacy R

Awesome stay!
This place was exactly as described -- clean, great location, adorable details, has what you need, cozy and comfy, awesome outdoor area. The host was great! Very responsive to messages and our request to check in early. She makes it very explicit on the page that she lives in the other unit; we expected to see her a couple times, and we did have quite a few interactions daily and there were a couple maintenance people cutting in and out through the pool for a couple hours while we were out there. It would have been helpful just to have had a heads up before they were suddenly letting themselves in through the gate. Overall, an awesome trip and would still recommend people staying here! We walked literally everywhere, except to/from the airport.

Everything we had hoped for!
The property was exactly as advertised and pictured, one of the most well maintained and charming places we've stayed. It was just the right size for my husband and it. Beach and shops were a 5-10 minute walk. Publix was a 5 minute drive (walkable if you wanted). Kitchen, laundry, and bath were well stocked and maintained. It was too cold while we were there to enjoy the pool, but it looked fantastic! Judy was prompt and great to talk to.

Just Beautiful
This cottage and outdoor space was worth every penny! It was spotless, gorgeous inside and out and there were numerous extras in place. From the bath robes to beach and pool towels to beach chairs, umbrella, rolling cooler! There is NOTHING you need after you arrive except food and drinks! There is even a community golf cart transport system that took us to the beach! We did walk after that because it is so close. Judy responded to all messages and took time out to chat with us and give suggestions. Truly one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed! FYI.. if you want to splurge on dinner one night.. go to Blue Moon.. also walking distance.. memorable meal and drinks! Seriously.. just book this gem!

Perfect vacation rental
My spouse and I were looking for an extended weekend getaway without the kids, and we found a gem in Judy’s place. It was the BEST private rental I have ever stayed in. First, the home - outstanding. The pool area was relaxing, inviting, and beautifully landscaped. Make sure you use it at night because the atmosphere is amazing. We ate by the pool, napped by the pool, read by the pool, and cooled off in the pool. It was a great asset to the property. Second, the community- safe, walkable, and quaint. We walked everywhere, no car needed. The walk to the beach was easy. Publix is right around the corner. Shops and restaurants were a block over. Try the gelato place, it’s delicious. Last, Judy- what an amazing host. By far the best I have ever experienced. She was accommodating, welcoming, and informative. I feel like we have gained a lifelong connection and a place we will return to again and again. Thank you for a great couple weekend!
