Amazing getaway for romantic trip

We loved staying at the cottage for our 10th wedding anniversary! Easy access to the beach, secluded and private, screened in porch, new appliances—everything we needed for a relaxing and fun week away from the rest of the world. Highly recommend, would definitely stay again!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. We liked how private this location felt, but it was still within steps to the beach and close to a restaurant within walking distance and a grocery and gift shop no more than a 3 minute drive away. The house was clean and well equipped with kitchen supplies, towels and linens. This is a well-kept property, both inside and out. The host was professional, warm and quick to respond to our messages. We would definitely consider staying here again!

Spotless little cottage!

Loved our stay here, bed was comfy, place was super clean. Loved the short stroll to the beach. Owners were not home in the front house so it was very private. Best suited for a couple, not a place for a family.

The Hideaway

What a great little property. Very close to the beach. Super clean and quiet. The property owners were there at the front house, they're very nice and stay to themselves. The wife and I will definitely book another trip here.

Perfection

Stop thinking about it and just do it! Hands down best place we’ve ever stayed in this area. Clean, private, and a short walk to the beach. You can see the ocean from your parking spot! The backyard was wonderful. Blueberry bushes, orange trees, roses and a fire pit ta boot. It did not disappoint. I’d stay here again and again!

We had a wonderful stay at The Hideaway Cottege. It was perfect for the two of us. Like a second honeymoon. The beach is close by, left our stuff on the beach and walked back for lunch, break. We loved it.

I'm a seasoned traveler. This cottage was the best place I've stayed. The renovations were so new and modern, I had to learn how they worked. I had no idea a microwave could also be an oven! Everything was pristine, clean, and convenient. There was a lot of thought put into outfitting this cottage. The accommodations were exactly as described. The beach was just minutes away, stores were close, the cottage was private, and the neighborhood was quiet. PERFECT!Worthy of mention is the helpfulness and welcoming manner of the owners Denise and David. They actually helped us unload our car and settle in. I can understand why they are super hosts.Don't miss the opportunity to make this place your next destination vacation. We had a super time!!

I cannot say enough positive things about this cottage. It is the cleanest rental I have ever stayed in, super cute and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. The outside space is beautiful and very well kept. I enjoyed sitting on the screen porch for breakfast and hearing the birds. It is very close to 30A and right across the street from the beach. The owners are very pleasant and the rental manager responded quickly and gave detailed check in/out instructions. I hope to be back soon!

This small cottage is located in the backyard of a house near the beach. The cottage is very cute and the fixtures, appliances and decorations are higher end and classy. The structure is cinder block with painted concrete floors, but it is finished so well it has a higher end feel. The cottage had beach chairs and umbrella for our use and the linens and towels were ready for us. We never had contact with the owners but the communication was exceptional. The cottage was very clean and free of any smells or decay you may expect so near the ocean. The walk to the beach was fairly short. Many condos we have used in the past located on the beach take as long to traverse to the beach as this cottage. It’s maybe half a block off the beach. The stretch of beach it is near has no condos and only smaller homes, so it felt less congested. We booked the cottage last moment so could maybe have had a better price had we booked it further out? All in all we enjoyed our stay and would consider staying there again if it was only my wife and I. It only has sleeping accommodations for two but maybe a bassinet or small cot could fit for a child. But it is relatively small so I would not recommend for more than two adults with maybe a small child.

Great beach cottage

The cottage was perfect for 2. Cottage was clean, decorated nicely, and had everything we needed. Short and easy walk to the beach. We loved this location because it was away from the craziness/crowds. We would love to come back and stay.

50th anniversary vacation

In quiet neighborhood easy 2 minute walk to the beach. Great setting just off the street behind owners house. Enjoyed meeting and chatting with the owners Denise and David. Chelsey was easy to communicate with promptly answered all questions prior to arrival. When we arrived everything was exactly per descriptions. Looking forward to visiting again.
