Being so close to the beach is my favorite!!

We stayed here several years ago and loved it so much we booked it again. You can't beat the ease of getting to the beach. There are chairs and a wagon for use. It was a game changer. The only downside was the pools close at 9-930 every night for cleaning. My kids live in the pool so this was unfortunate. I noticed they got a new stove and it was seriously awesome! I want one just like it for my house. We look forward to staying again.

Great stay!

We absolutely loved our stay. The townhome was super clean and had the perfect amount of room for 4 adults and 4 kids. Super close walk to the beach and the community is great. It's gated and we felt good about letting the kids ride bikes and walk around. Both pools were a great addition. We can't say enough good things. We'll be back!

This was an excellent unit to rent for location to beach and pets. The community was also pet friendly and well kept. We had an issue with the internet towards the end of our stay and the problem was addressed and handled within hours. Very clean unit with all the necessities to have meals and comfortable stay.

I booked this house last minute due to my room at PCB getting canceled last minute due to damage prior to my arrival. Not knowing what I would be getting, this was the last available place to stay which was 1.5 hrs away but I took it. I was in awe once we arrived. Very spacious, beautifully decorated, very welcoming and enough room for my family of two children and me and my friend. The beach was within view and easy accessible from the house. I'll never stay in PCB again, this is family and dog friendly. No loud music, no rough crowds around, just simple fun for the entire family. The people there are so nice. It felt like home. I'm so glad I found this place it felt like a hidden gem. I highly recommend this place.

Very convenient to the beach and very clean. Ample kitchen supplies. The refrigerator and microwave that had rust on them was disappointing along with loose towel bars in bathroom. Just a few easy fixes and this would feel like a nicer place.

Loved the Cape

Enjoyed our stay at the LeGrand Dunes. Had picture perfect weather for early March. Nice complex with friendly community. The unit was clean and comfortable. There were a few things that could be updated, but not a show stopper. The heated pool was broken when we were there.

Liked: Location
Very clean! Great location! About a one minute walk from the condo until your toes are in the sand. Due to all the condo guests, the beach is busier here than I expected. The bunk beds over the stairs gave us the extra sleeping space we needed. Extra chairs and beach items in the closet were a plus. The gas grill and provided propane made our week so much easier as we like to mostly cook in! Loved the patio for cooking and eating! The kitchen had what we needed to cook all week. The dining table was plenty big enough for our family if six! Washer and dryer worked great which is important with a large family. Only cons... The refrigerator works fine but has rust and just looks unacceptable in a rental as well as the old carpet on the stairs. I like that the rest of the house is hard floor. Overall it was a very nice place to stay!

Pleasant Stay

Cape It Simple met our needs perfectly. The beach access is amazing and it's also a very short walk to the pool. We had a couple of issues (wrong username and password provided for internet and we had to wait until next day for technician and the dishwasher didn't work). But the rental agency was very responsive with resolving the issues. The icemaker was leaking and forming a huge block of ice in the container, but the technician was scheduled to fix that the day after we left. We just bought a bag of ice and we were fine. The unit is dated but was very clean and accommodating. Lots of nice towels and beach towels are provided and there was a lot of beach equipment in the closet in the carport. Unfortunately, we had rented chairs and an umbrella in advance which we never even had to use. The only suggestion that I have for the rental agency is to ask the owners to buy new pots and pans. They are in very bad condition and I didn't use any of the Teflon ones. But we didn't do much eating in anyway. We would definitely stay here again for the convenience of where other family members were staying and the proximity to the beach.
