The place was great. The only issues we had were with the AC. But to be honest we had alot of kids in and out all day, so that probably contributed to that issue. But overall our stay was great and we would do it again.

Great house for family gathering

We had family members of all ages (incl a few infants) and we had a great time here. Just minutes driving from the beach and a great backyard for the kids to run around in the sun. Really nice covered balcony where we spent most of our time enjoying each other's company and having meals together. Inside was clean and well air conditioned. Had a great time!

Location and Property Management was Great!

Parking was perfect! Mosquitoes were viscous so spray before getting out of car! The space was perfect for our group of 20 and we'd definitely stay again. Cleaning company didn't do a good job with floors restrooms and lift wasn't accessible to guest but the property itself was everything we needed!

Huge House!

This house is HUGE! So much space for all of us to spread out and each have our own area to settle into after our day at the beach. Of course we also enjoyed the living areas like the living room and kitchen to gather and spend some quality time together. The house was super clean upon arrival and we just immediately felt at home here.

Beds, Beds, Beds!!!

We had a group of 14 girls and 12 adults and this house was PERFECT for us! The fact that all girls could be in one room together and sleep in bed was amazing AND all adults had their own bed to sleep in!! I loved the layout of the house where girls could gather in their quarters upstairs but still had a spare sleeping area for a supervising adult. Penny off room for them to play inside and out and just a quick drive to the beach. Loved it!

Beware! Dirty house with broken appliances!

We rented the house for a family reunion and upon arrival it was clear the house had not been properly cleaned. Everything was filthy, grimy and dirty. Sheets were sandy, hair all over the floors, grime on the walls, dirty drawers, dust covered everything. We saw several roaches alive and dead. The dryer has no heat so we couldn’t dry anything. The AC leaked right on the stairs where you walk through so it drips on you. The pool was completely unusable. The space has potential but it needs some serious TLC.

Dirty, appliances barely work, only 4 full bathrooms and one half bath

This place has potential but why are we paying a cleaning fee if the place is going to be dirty, grimy, beds with sand in them and dead bugs everywhere. They need to do better and get a different cleaning service and actually walk the house before guests stay. The fridges barely kept food cold, one of the shower knobs were broken. The single king bedrooms had its own bathroom but the toilet seat was too small. There is a pool that looks new but when asked about it, we were told house didn’t have pool but then they clarified and said yes it does and we could use it. There were also roaches. One of the upstairs rooms was literally a closet and didn’t have an outlet for a fan or chargers. Only 1 bathroom upstairs when we were told there were 2. The dryer barely got clothes dry even after running the cycle multiple times. It was disappointing.

The house is very large and has plenty of space for a family to spread out and relax. The pool was great and we used it everyday. We made a Cajun boil and ate it on the huge table on the deck. We will stay here again.

Overall, this was a good stay! The kitchen was extremely well stocked and tons of beds. It was a fun space. However, there were a couple of things that were frustrating: the online descriptions need to be updated to reflect what is current about the house. We were disappointed to learn that there was one less fridge than pictured, one less bathroom than listed, and that it was not a double oven. It also further from the beach than the listing implies. On the other hand, there were tons of linens and beds and the living room from nice. I think this would be a great place for a family reunion with little kids, but it’s not the best for a group of adults

AC at night was too hot and a lot of cockroaches

The place was spacious for us since there were 26 of us and the place is good for 40pax, the beds were comfortable and amenities are available. The kids who stayed at the 2nd floor complained that AC wasn’t cooling, they didn’t have good sleep. And on our 2nd night, our last night, cockroaches were everywhere, little kids were like screaming and doesn’t want to go down anymore. Weve killed around 10 cockroaches.

Extremely Disappointing Stay – Filthy Conditions at Treaty Beach House

I recently stayed at the beach house at Treaty, and unfortunately, our experience was nothing short of a nightmare. Upon arrival, we found the living environment in a disturbingly filthy state. One of the beds had visible blood stains, and several others were covered in sand with dirty sheets. To make matters worse, there were roaches present, boogers on the walls, and the dishes and dish rags were filthy. Infested pool that didn't even work. Bathroom smells like sewage. Water taste like sewage. We even encountered a broken refrigerator and a damaged dryer. We are extremely disappointed with the state of the property, and this experience has left us with a very negative impression. I sincerely hope the management takes immediate action to rectify these issues for future guests. I reached out to the owner and they never spoke to me again. Stay away from this place. The high reviews are fake.
