We loved our stay at the Sassy Crab.  We arrived to a super clean house and everything was as shown in the pictures and description.  The beds were comfy and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed.  The location was perfect and close to several restaurants, bar and shops.  It was a short 5-10 min drive to the fishing pier and beach by car or golf cart. The pool and outdoor BBQ grills were located right outside the unit. We would definitely stay here again!

Off season week - Our favorite time

The accommodations were fantastic. Very clean and the location is perfect and quiet. Not sure how quiet it is during peak season since we don’t visit Port A during that time. We would recommend this rental and will consider for ourselves on future dates.

Fantastic property that is close to everything

Another wonderful stay here! The property was as described, with tons of extra details (dog dishes, games for kids, outdoor shower for after the beach)! This home is located in the golf cart district and is close to restaurants, shopping and the beach. The check in and out process was easy and convenient. Thank you again and highly recommend!
