Sandfest getaway

The property and amenities at the house were amazing and just as depicted in the listing. We loved the oceanfront property and close proximity to beach access. The only tiny improvement we would request is improved wifi in the house, as evening tv streaming was difficult at best. We understand the location constraints, but the surrounding RV resort seemed to not have this issue.Overall the house was a spectacular place to retreat with friends and family for a beach and poolside vacation!

Best Beach House Ever!

My husband, myself and our friends had an awesome time staying here for our annual friend vacation. The property was beautiful, the house is decorate so cute, the pool was a great place to hang out after a days at the beach and the view was stunning. We had the best time and are hoping to be able to come back next year. The property management company was also very easy to get a hold of if needed. Will definitely be back!

Family Vaca

This house was amazing. It was beautifully decorated. The upper floor was spacious for entire family to spread out. The beds were very comfortable. The view was breathtaking. Being able to walk out to beach anytime was so nice. Pool was perfect for grandkids. Had a couple minor issues, one I couldn't figure out how to lock front door. Called the portaescape number and they sent someone right away and showed me how to lock hurricaine door. Everyone was very nice and helpful at gulfshore. We are already trying to figure out next year stay here. This place is as close to perfect as you will find anywhere.

Great house, great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with the location, cleanliness and comfort of this house. Location right on the beach - we had a golf cart but it’s not needed - just extra fun! Quick drive to many restaurants but we also cooked most of our meals. The kitchen was well appointed, even had a double oven! Very clean house. Property management was very friendly and responsive, we had them out to reset the router (the RV park has wifi but the house wifi was way better!). We also had them out to change batteries in a smoke alarm that started chirping midway through our stay (they replaced batteries in all detectors). The house is located in an RV park but not managed by the same staff, I didn’t know that until we left. The staff at the park are also really great, very friendly.

Amazing Views!

We were looking for a place to watch the waves roll in and this property did not disappoint. It’s a lovely home that was very well stocked. Plenty of space for our large group to relax and visit. The elevator and second fridge were appreciated amenities. Unfortunately, the windows with the amazing views had quite a bit of sea salt build up. We found that a few bottles of Windex Outdoor and a squeegee remedied the problem. Also, upon arrival we found the private pool was green and not very inviting. The management company was quick to respond, but it wasn’t until the fourth day of our stay that the pool was ready for swimmers. A definite disappointment, but we were satisfied with the management company’s handling of the situation. We also had a problem with the AC, but this was addressed and resolved in a timely manner. No batteries in the tv remote when we arrived, but again, an easy fix. Overall, we couldn’t have been happier with this property.

Most beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had our family of 13 there and enjoyed it very much. We were impressed with how well was equipped! They even had pool and sand toys and sunglasses to use! Would love a cookie sheet, though. The pool was so enjoyable, because of the sitting areas and how big it was (though not deep) in comparison to others we have rented. An outside shower and the huge gathering porch with tables was a plus. We are so happy with our visit in this home with the beautiful view. Thank you for sharing it with us. Only drawback was there were no stairs from the first floor to the second!!

Beautiful home and wonderful outdoor space

We took our 5 adult kids for 6 wonderful nights. The private pool and patio were amazing. It was too windy to enjoy the beach so we used the pool everyday. Because it was windy, the pool had a lot of sand blow in but it didn’t affect us. The kitchen was well stocked but the pots and pans need an upgrade. They were warped and non stick was peeling. Access to the pool area was inconvenient due to no stairs from 2nd to 1st floor (except for front). Kitchen needs better potholders and a church key opener. Linens, blankets and pillows are first rate. Lots of games and movies but we didn’t use. Tons of pool and sand toys to enjoy. Also boogie boards that we did not use.

Beautiful house in a great location

Our family had a great time and really enjoyed staying here. It was very spacious, clean, and the kitchen was fully stocked. We picked up sand toys on our way to the house not realizing they had some there already! There were also some pool toys/floaties. The beach bags came in handy, too, when we needed something to haul some snacks on a day trip.Our only wish would’ve been to have enough bath towels for everyone in our group and it would’ve been convenient to have beach/pool towels available, too. Thank you for a wonderful “home away from home”.

Gorgeous property but construction on site

This house is gorgeous and very clean but you won’t get much relaxing in due to the everyday, very loud construction at the house next door. We actually left a day early. If you don’t mind sawing, banging, drilling and heavy construction equipment then you’ll love this property. Construction hours are 6am -7pm
