Amazing stay!

We had an amazing stay at this beachfront home! Being just a few steps from the beach was amazing for morning coffee, days on the beach, and beautiful sunsets from the front deck and windows. We would certainly stay here again! A couple things that could be improved would be to upgrade the Hughes Net internet to Starlink for visitors who need more reliable internet, however, cell phone service and hotspots seemed to work fine when the sattelite was not working great. Also, it would have been helpful to have some guides for the high end appliances that took us a few minutes to figure out. Overall, a pretty perfect stay!

Great island getaway

Great size for our family and you can't get any closer to the beach. Everyday was great even if the weather wasn't.

Leaves a lot to be desired

While the location is lovely, the home needs some attention. What makes me sad is that it appears some of these concerns have been raised by other guests in the past and still haven't been addressed, which means the owner is only interested in a quick buck and not customer satisfaction or retention. The owner was very responsive until I shared my concerns, now he has gone radio silent after two attempts to discuss with him. I shared about the mold in the ice maker, the broken amenities (coffee pot, master shower was unusable, the fridge leaked water on the floor, the garbage disposer didn't work until my husband got under the sink and fixed, the tv in the guest room and the microwave) and then shared about the missing items (kitchen towels, dishwashing detergent, instructions on how to use the convection stovetop and connect to Wifi, beach chairs and kayak). For the price, this home is just not up to par and hopefully this review keeps someone from renting so the owner will be forced to fix some of these issues.

Not fit to rent

Had to call the owner to get instructions to work the German made stove and oven. Found the dish TV connection broken. Internet very intermittent (difficult to stream any shows). Coffee maker broken. Shower flooded bedroom floor which we had to clean up. Thank goodness for the folks on the island who helped us. DON'T RENT THIS PROPERTY!!

Very LITTLE of what was expected was true

From the process of renting a golf cart (as recommended by the listing), to the cleanliness, to the amenities - so much was different than the listing. First of all you can't rent a cart since the sand is too deep within 50 yards of the house - and the cart provider admitted his carts were not usable. Essentially we ended up walking everywhere (including taking our week of groceries/supplies/bags from the boat to the house - needless to say 700 yards is a long way carrying that much). Basic items like a K-cup coffee maker or fridge/icemaker were not provided. Also to only provide 4 coffee cups, 4 plates - meant we were forced to use paper products. A mini fridge (for a weeks worth of food since there are no restaurants on the island) without ice maker was provided, but the area for the actual full sized fridge was empty - like someone made the decision to downgrade the fridge to the mini-variety. The beach chairs and kayak were missing from a storm that had come weeks before - would have been good to know that ahead of time. the shelves and pantry were not clean, and only one TV was barely in service due to the intermittent wifi. If even 20% of these problems were disclosed properly we would NOT have selected this place - when you consider paying $3K+, you expect basics like beach chairs and wifi/TV service let alone a normal sized fridge that has an icemaker built in. Oh yeah a repairman showed up unannounced! Very bad, very bad - $200 credit was offered - really?
