Wonderful property! The garden out back and the screened sunroom were beautiful. We spent most of our time out by the pool when we were home. The beach was walkable from the house and usually uncrowded. Highly recommend this home and we would love to come back again!
Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We are so glad Goin' Coastal was a great fit and that you loved the walk to the beach.
Thank you again for choosing Lilmar Vacations. We would love to welcome you back.

Excellent price for this cozy home near the beach. It was well stocked with all that we needed. We rented a golf cart for beach travel which I highly recommend. We would definitely stay here again!
Perfect for multiple generation families. Beautiful neighborhood. Easy communication with property manager. Close to beach. Everything was great.

The house was wonderful and a very short walk to the public beach. We had golf carts and we used them for every trip off the property.

Exactly as stated in the information. Well stocked with supplies and several areas suitable for gathering together or for quiet time. It would be helpful to have a dorm size frig in the garage apt

This was a perfect house for a vacation with our extended family. It was easy to spend time together in the common areas, pool and nearby beach. But everyone also had their private space. A hurricane hit in the middle of our stay so we were thankful for the generator
