The house was just perfect for us. Check in instructions given by the host were spot on and easy to understand and follow. The house was clean, well stocked and with one of the most comfortable beds in the primary bedroom that I have ever slept on. The kitchen had everything I needed even though we did not cook a lot, to put a nice meal together. Elizabeth Bell is a gracious host and would love to rent from her again sometime.
Super cute place and very clean. Check-in/out was very easy. We loved the views of the beach and ocean. The big patios provided a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the ocean views. It was so nice! Kitchen was fully stocked with cooking equipment and utensils. Anything else we needed was just a short walk or drive down the road. Loved that we could even drive on to the beach nearby. The only thing I wish I had done, was take my own bed pillows. They have pillows but they are very thin and flimsy. No support and not comfortable. Would definitely like to stay here again!
Everything was decorated and stocked. Bed had some sand in it but we refreshed it in the laundry. And it was very comfy after long days prepping for a wedding. Our only regret is not being able to enjoy the amenities and beach. We were there for a wedding and would love to come back and be able to cook, relax and to enjoy the views and beach
Overall the apartment (up on 12 foot beams, like every place on the island) fully met our needs. It was a fun beach place to stay on the Bolivar Peninsula, close to High Island and other great birding spots. Only issue was the shaking of the structure caused by the 25 knot winds that blew for our entire 3 night stay. Probably would be fixable by cross-bracing.
We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and tidy with a great view. Will definitely stay again next time we're in the area.

Check in was easy after we asked several times to get the information a little earlier since we arrived from germany and didn't have internet till we got in the house.The internet conection was really slow 30Mbits was the highest. The TV wasn't working right. We had 8 channels no internet connection till almost the end of our 3 weeks stay.As we arrived after a 23 hours trip there was nothing cleaned, not even the beds were made. The owner organized the cleaning crew at 10pm. They never came back with washed sheets. Glad I started to take it off and washed it on ny own, so I could use at least the sheets and pillow cases for the Queen bed again.I organized the closet to find bed spread for the Queen bed.The view was amazing and it is only a short walk to the beach. The lack of information of things to do, restaurants to visit, plus local shopping was disapointing. A faster response, sometimes would have been nice.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay for Mardi Gras weekend! The house is adorable and fit was the perfect size for us and our two kids. The master bed is very comfortable and the ocean views from the house can’t be beat!! Lots of memories made!
Home was lovely. Had AC issues first night but owner addressed quickly. Short walk to the beach. Beautiful view of the ocean from the deck. Would definitely stay again!
