Perfect property for a family of five for Fall Break! Property was as described and very clean! Two minute walk to the beach! I also loved that we didn’t have to strip the beds before check out!

The place was clean and cozy with cute decor. Adequate kitchen supplies to cook each night for our large family. Close to the beach and seafood market to enjoy fresh seafood to cook on our own. The beds however were less than desirable. Kids bunk beds were hard as a rock and the other beds were old and need to be replaced. We all struggled to sleep comfortably. Overall the rest of the house was great.

Great Experience
Great experience staying here. Overall we really enjoyed the layout of the house and the surrounding areas. Having the A/C go out for one whole day was annoying, as was the community pool area feel uncared for (debris, hot pool water, trash not emptied) but the three families we were there with enjoyed the proximity to the beach and safety felt in the area.

Great location!
Overall, great property! I am an experienced Vrbo renter- this house was very clean, location was amazing, very open and light, nicely decorated. A few things- literally no extras- no salt, pepper, you name it. I know not to expect supplies when renting, but I mean , nothing ! Only one roll of TP per bath- had to make emergency run almost immediately! Bring ANYTHING you might need! One more thing , No smart TV- unless you have a fire stick, no way to watch except for cable. This isn’t a problem for some, but I have teenagers, and it’s nice to watch a movie after the beach all day.

Cockroaches galore
If you enjoy proximity to beach with access to multiple cockroaches throughout the house and subpar cleanliness, then this is the perfect beach house for you. When notifying rental company of the cockroaches, they were dismissive. Do not book this property!
