Had a great time. Location is hard to beat. Lots of space. The only negative is the stove didn’t work very well and was hard to cook for a large group on. There were also some items that had to be addressed or repaired when we arrived. Ashley was prompt to respond and always had a great attitude.We loved this spot and would love to return

Great place to stay!

We had a great time at Shangri-La! The location near the beach was nice as it only took about 3 minutes to get there. The private beach was a plus as the beach areas to either side were quite packed! We also were grateful for close proximity to Walmart as well as walking distance to nice family-friendly restaurants. Ashley was a fantastic host and always quick to reply to my many questions.

Nice place. Lots of space, bedrooms, beds, bathrooms, etc. our upstairs air conditioner went out but Ashley, the property manager, was on it. She arranged to get it fixed immediately and followed up until it was complete. Lovely beach. Do bring your own chairs and umbrellas for the beach because you can go but must provide those items.

We really enjoyed the Shangrila

We all loved this place!!!!! We had 11 adults in our party. We travelled there for a wedding. The kitchen and top floor living area was perfect as we like to eat our meals at home. The private beach access was exactly what we hoped for - especially after seeing the overly crowded beaches not too far away. We took advantage of the outdoor shower and other outdoor spaces. The beds in the smaller rooms on the lower level could have been better/bigger but other than that - the place was a complete diamond in the rough. We would definitely return to this property if the opportunity presented.

Fun Week

Location great, House very spacious, Plenty of beds and parking. We had a few issues, which Ashley quickly took care of! It should be noted that the trundle bed room size only allows for one of the trundle beds to be pulled out, so if you need all 4 sleeping areas in this room you will be out of luck. Thankfully, we didn't need the 2nd trundle bed to be pulled out. And the beds/baths could use a linen/towels update.

Shangri-La 07/22

The location is excellent, with easy access to a lovely beach. The home is very spacious and has all the appliances and kitchen ware that a large group could want. The exterior could use some maintenance, in particular the outside shower should be cleaned up and upgraded, and the paving stones should be stabilized
