Our stay was great! The pool wasn’t working the first day but they got someone out that day to fix it! And let us check out later so we could enjoy it! Super close to the beach which was great!
Fantastic property on a corner lot with an ocean view. Wonderful studio downstairs and a spacious master in the 3rd floor.

We would definitely stay here again!

Great property and quiet. Loved the proximity to the ocean but wish there was a more direct and closer route to walk to the beach. I wish we would have rented a golf cart.

House was exactly as listed, if not better and very spacious for our family of 10. Beautiful home! Super clean! Comfortable beds! Neighborhood was perfect and quiet! Right around the corner from the beach access road. Having our own private pool was so wonderful. Loved this house!

The home was beautiful but housekeeping missed a few water bugs/roaches which is understandable with the pool. But other than that we had an amazing time there.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was the perfect set up since one family member has a prosthetic leg and stairs are an issue so the downstairs suite made this house a great fit for us. We had everything we needed and ample amount of space. We would definitely rent again.

The smell was the only thing that was dissatisfying. There was or is a mold problem, especially for the first floor. The house itself was amazing and came with everything we needed. Close proximity to the beach and to in town. Great location!

My family and myself enjoyed staying at Kara Mia, we loved it so much, we want to return 2023, and make this place our family place for us to return every year.

Great location, comfortable, no problems during our stay. Only suggestion; the lighting outside is minimal, so it would be helpful if the stairs had more lighting so no accidents would occur. And motion sensor by pool did not work. Everything else was great!
We had a great time overall loved the property. The downstairs apartment had a bad smell that they tried to take care of with plug ins and scent absorbers. It made a few family members a little sick. The upstairs house was wonderful, but I would only recommend booking this if you don’t need the downstairs apartment. Communication was great and prompt with the property manager.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Communication
The house was okay-ish. It was clean and adequate seating for the upstairs portion of the house. HOWEVER, the first floor bedroom has a TERRIBLE smell. It’s mildew mixed with stale air. When we called them about it they acted like they didn’t know, but when we checked in there were air fresheners on the A/C intake and car air fresheners hanging from the cabinet hooks. If you look at the bed, you can literally see water damage stains on the box springs. It was awful!!!!! Also, every single exterior light is blue, which makes it IMPOSSIBLE to see at night. The stair lights are along the railing instead of the feet, and 80% of them were out. We did contact them about the lights too, they came out second to last day and said they would order more lights…we did not get to utilize those lights because we left the next morning…. We had an elderly man with us who had a hard time taking stairs, let alone taking them on a dimly lit staircase. He almost fell twice! As far as communication goes - it takes at least 24 hours for any response from them. Definitely not a fan of that aspect of it all either…
