Everything was great but we had 2 complaints. Not all the exterior light worked and the bedroom upstairs was uncomfortable at night when trying to keep cool. The closet door wouldn't close all the way and there were 2 attic doors in the closet. One of the doors, you could feel the heat coming from which made the closet really hot. Other than that we would most definitely stay again and recommend. You are literally steps from the beach with a grass yard. Appreciated the outdoor shower to rinse off after beach time. They provided more than enough so we didn't have to travel with a lot of accessories which included the grill, all the water and sand toys, a baby pool for our toddlers, corn hole, picnic table outside and folding chairs. Then for inside the they provided a lot of cooking utensils, pots and pans. Loved that they had board games and cards for our teens and the numerous extra pillows and blankets.

We're thrilled your family enjoyed being just steps from the sand for your 4th Celebration and made good use of the grassy yard, outdoor shower, and all the amenities around the home. Packing for a beach vacation can sometimes feel like preparing for a small expedition, so we're always happy when guests appreciate the extras. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the exterior lighting. We aren't aware of any exterior lights not functioning, and since we didn't hear from you during your stay, we unfortunately didn't have the opportunity to troubleshoot or send someone out to address them while you were here. Our Crew is always happy to help with items like this during a stay. We want our guests to enjoy the home to its fullest. As for the upstairs closet, Gulf Coast summers certainly know how to make an entrance, especially during the Fourth of July holiday when temperatures and humidity are often at their annual peak. Attic access areas can sometimes create a warmer pocket of air in closet spaces during those extra-toasty beach weeks, but we'll certainly take another look at the doors and insulation in that area. Most of all, we're delighted to hear you would stay with us again and recommend the home to others!
