Great Ladies Getaway

We were pleasantly delighted when we opened the door and walked through our little home away from home. It was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. All bedrooms were clean and classy. The soft colors throughout the home made for a peaceful retreat from our fast paced lives. We enjoyed using the heated pool (but would have loved if it could have warmed above the 85 degree cap)

Great Experience

The property was exactly as listed. We had no issues with check in or communication. Kids loved the pool. The vast selection of pool toys and beach toys was a big hit. Kitchen had everything we were looking for. Location was great - we did drive to the beach, but it was less than 5 min away.

Very nice!

Loved our stay, the pool was just the right size for the littles so if you have littles this is a great pick! The house itself was very clean and everything looked pretty new on the inside. The home was also located very close to the seawall. It is walkable if you like to walk, otherwise it’s just a really short drive to everything. There is a garage for parking which is a plus but if you have big cars like an SUV or truck it will not fit 2 cars so that was the only downside. Otherwise our stay was perfect!

Beautiful home

Wonderful home in every way. Small pool for cooling off and for the kids to play. Kitchen had everything you could want. Bedrooms/bathrooms very nice. Just a couple blocks to the beach. Only issue we had was the garage door remote didn’t work but the cleaning people were still there and called their boss and he had them give us the backup one from the owners closet. Also, the code to garage door needs to be given along with the front door code. Other than those issues it was perfect. I would stay there again and definitely recommend it to anyone.

Where do I even begin… My family & I were in complete Awe with this house. The whole experience was prefect! Even the experience with the property manager was pleasant. What you see… is exactly what you get… & then some! I kept repeating to myself… the P.M thought about every little detail of this rental. & now has set the bar high for future rentals. Definitely looking forward to future rentals & sending my friends & loved ones their way!! Thanks so much for making my trip so memorable!

AMAZING!

This was the best rental I've stayed in. So clean, bed was comfortable, master bathroom was great. Love a nice rainfall showerhead. We stayed to visit the beach and this home was so close to the beach that we walked there multiple times a day. Will return again!
