This was the perfect get away for my husband and myself! Having 4 kids I was wanting the most laid back, and cozy place I could find, and this is it! Everything was perfect. I loved the attention to detail in everything and it smelled so good in there! everything was clean and it felt so cozy, it was hard to get up and moving some days I just wanted to lay and relax! The cookies were also a plus! We loved the golf cart, it made beach days/night and carrying our fishing gear so much easier! Everything we needed was so close by, which gave us more time to relax in the room. Thank you for hosting us! We’d love to visit again someday.

Thank you so much, Ashley! We’re thrilled Flip Flop Suites gave you and your husband the cozy, laid-back escape you were looking for, especially with four kids at home. You deserve every minute of that rest! Carolyn loves the little details, from the scent to the cookies, so she’ll be delighted they got noticed. We’re glad the golf cart made beach days and fishing trips easy, and that having everything close by gave you more time to relax. It’s the best compliment when it’s hard to get up and moving. You were awesome guests, and we’d love to host you both again anytime! ~Jonathan and Carolyn πŸ˜ŠπŸ’—

The Curry's have thought of everything when it comes to a nice relaxing time at the beach. We couldn't have asked for anything more for a time to reconnect Γ nd get away from everyday life for awhile. Very clean and well decorated.
