Quaint and Cozy Beach Cottage

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our second time staying at Two, if By Sea. It is the perfect getaway for our family of three. The two bedrooms (each with their own bathroom) are perfect for us. Even though there is also a pull-out couch, it might feel a little cramped with more than 4 people. We love the location and the amenities. We were only a little disappointed because the last time we stayed here, the property also came with beach chair service included; however, we were told that was no longer part of the rental. (Not a huge deal, but disappointing to say the least.) The main bathroom shower could use a deep cleaning as there was mold starting to grow on the grout of the tile. We might be outgrowing the cute cottage - but love the memories we made here.
Response from VrboOwner on 7 October 2026
Hi there, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback and for returning to Two, if By Sea! We are so glad to hear that this cute cottage has provided your family of three with so many wonderful memories, comfortable layout setups, and a great location over the years. We also really appreciate your constructive notes regarding beach chair service and housekeeping. While amenity inclusions can occasionally shift year-over-year, we understand how that change was a disappointment, and we will review our listing descriptions to ensure amenity details remain crystal clear for returning guests. Additionally, we have dispatched our housekeeping supervisor to address the bathroom tile grout with a targeted deep cleaning immediately. Thank you again for being a loyal guest. If your family ever expands into a larger home in our collection, we’d love to help you find the perfect fit for your next beach getaway! Warmly, The Blue Swell Team

Ideal respite from the crowds of 30A

Pleasant accommodation in a gated community with great pools and a fine beach. Dedicated beach chairs and umbrella were a nice bonus.

4/10 Poor

Friendly Management Company

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Admittedly, we were a little disappointed with the property. One of the ceiling fans upstairs did not work properly which led to really hot temperatures in that bedroom even at night. The A/C could only be dropped so low without freezing up the unit. There was a very foul odor that was coming from underneath the kitchen sink. Maintenance came to fix it, but the odor remained during our entire stay. It became almost unbearable during the heat of the day because the odor would start to spread throughout downstairs. The property management company was very responsive to our concerns and kept us informed as they tried to find a solution to the issue. Unfortunately, it was something that could not be fixed during our stay which ultimately led to us going home early because we couldn't deal with the smell. The property could use some updating and more regular pest control because we also encountered some water bugs and roaches in the downstairs area. The property is a short walk to the beach access, but it would have been helpful to know that the beach access has stairs only and that made it difficult to get our beach wagon up and down when we went to the beach. The property no longer provides beach chairs and umbrella which is why we had to carry our own stuff. Even though the home is surrounded by much larger homes, we found it to be very quiet which is helpful when trying to put a little one to sleep at night.
Response from VrboOwner on 29 August 2026
HIDE RESPONSE: Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed and thoughtful feedback. We’re very sorry that the issues with the property ultimately affected your vacation to the point that you needed to leave early. We understand how disruptive and unpleasant a persistent odor can be, especially when it becomes worse throughout the day. We appreciate you recognizing that our management team was responsive and kept you informed while maintenance worked to identify and address the odor. We sincerely regret that the issue could not be resolved during your stay. We’ll continue to follow up on this matter to determine the underlying cause and ensure it is properly addressed. We also appreciate you bringing the ceiling fan, AC, pest activity, and general condition of the property to our attention. These are all areas that warrant further inspection and attention from our maintenance and management teams. Thank you as well for the feedback regarding the beach access and the availability of beach chairs and umbrellas. We understand how helpful it would be for guests to know ahead of time that the access involves stairs, particularly when traveling with beach equipment or young children. We’ll review how these details are communicated in the listing. We’re glad to hear that you found the home quiet and appreciated its proximity to the beach. We’re sorry that the property did not provide the comfortable experience you expected, and we truly appreciate your constructive feedback as we work to improve it for future guests.
