Great house with a great view

We snagged this property last minute as our previous rental through another company was cancelled. So happy we did! It’s a great place to stay with family- the separate apartments helped everyone have their own space and downtime. Everything was great with no complaints. We would definitely stay here again.

Treasured memories!

Beautiful home on idyllic peaceful beach - in great shape while other homes around are still recovering from Ian. Also generously furnished. Nicely laid out for multiple couples for privacy - works with kids well - we brought monitor to be able to hear from separate room and gate for high porch for safety.
