Four couples stayed at the townhome. The property is beautiful and is impeccably decorated. The upstairs master is wonderful and there was enough room for everyone. The kitchen has everthing you need and the golf cart was a bonus. The location is perfect, close to restauants, and we would definitely come back again.

Had the best weekend getaway. My rental was perfect & beautiful everything was well stocked. Communication was wonderful and the golf cart was a special bonus. We will be back for sure!
Great place for our family from Grandparents to young adults.
This place was soooo clean! Kitchen had everything we needed to make all our meals. the little yard was perfect for our 2 dogs. So close to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. I honestly don't have anything negative to say about this property.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the amenities at the property and we hope to have you back at Life in Paradise.
Very clean and spacious property close to the Beach with all the amenities including a cart which was such a plus!! Condo is perfectly arranged to accommodate Adults and kids, but be ready to climb some steps when arriving and departing .. The Condo was also very well stocked with everything you need to cook and entertain numerous guests as well as plenty of starter toiletries .. Would definitely recommend!!

We're so happy you enjoyed your stay at our condo! We hope to see you again any time you wish to spend some well deserved vacation time down here!
Safe travels, and remember that you always have a home with us here at Life in Paradise!
We chose this property for 3 reasons: 1: The ratings on cleaning were high, and that’s SUPER important for me. 2: It was pet friendly for our 2 Golden Retriever boys. 3: The sleeping arrangements/bed sizes were perfect for our group. We were so pleased with the aesthetics of the house, the sunrises out on the third floor drinking our morning coffee’s, the easy access to the beach, THE GOLF CART RENTAL….my list could go on. Anchors Away at Port A is a new family favorite and most definitely will return to this property upon future visits. 10/10!

Warm regards,

Everything about this property was perfect! We had three families and this three level house was perfect!
We had plenty of space and privacy but the second level was big enough for us all to enjoy family time together.
The kitchen was fully equipped and functional for all of our needs.
It was vey clean and decorated to perfection.
It was close to all restaurants, perfect location.
The golf cart was fun and convenient going to the beach, trips to the store, and to the ice cream store each night.
The only thing that I was not pleased with was the shared pool. It was small so if both units of the town house are rented there were too many people for the size of the pool.
We are planning on coming back every year now that we have found the perfect place.

Thanks so much for staying with us, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay.
We look forward to having you come again soon.
We were impressed with the quality, upscale looking feel of the home. After scouring rental sites for hours, we chose this gem, primarily because pets were allowed, had access to a hot tub, and the included golf cart was a major bonus! (Our Goldendoodle had a blast!)
The kitchen was practically stocked to the brim; I needn't have overpacked as the house had everything we could think of and more. We had Thanksgiving with our family of 11 and had all the dishes and cookware needed!
The top balcony offers a tantalizing glimpse of the ocean. The second balcony makes a great overflow dining space. The lower level yard was perfect for our pet and play. The outdoor spaces were great, especially on rainy days.
A mere 5-minute stroll from the front door lands you right on the sandy shores.
In short, our stay here was relaxing and delightful.

Ken & Sarah, it's wonderful to hear that you had both an unforgettable and relaxing stay at our Life in Paradise rental! We're so happy that we could provide a home-away-from-home experience for all 11 of you, furry friends included. Here at Life in Paradise, we strive to make sure our guests have all they need while staying with us. It's great to hear that you found the kitchen fully stocked (particularly helpful while celebrating Thanksgiving!), as well as the golf cart and hot tub adding extra activities and relaxation during your stay. Most importantly, we're glad to have been able to give pupper an amazing vacation too - I'm sure the ocean view from top balcony was definitely something special.
Thank you for being great guests and for recommending us! We hope you'll choose us again next time your travels bring you near paradise!

Very nice property and stay. House was clean, great location. Would definitely stay again. Writing comments to help explain the layout because it’s unique.
One of the bedrooms (king bed) is a separate entrance on the ground floor. It doesn’t connect to the main part of the home. To get in you either need to keep the garage door open (code wasn’t provided) or go into main entrance> exit house on the deck and then go into the extra room. It makes it a bit isolating which can be a good or bad thing.
There are 2 living rooms (one in an open layout with the kitchen and the other on the upper floor). We didn’t use the upper living room much but for large groups would probably been quite nice to have kids on one floor hanging out while adults spend time on the other floor.
Overall very pleased and would stay again. Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at our property! We are delighted to hear that you appreciated the cleanliness and prime location of the house. Your kind words motivate us to keep striving for excellence.
We appreciate your detailed comments about the layout. The unique design, including the separate entrance for the king bedroom on the ground floor, does indeed offer a blend of privacy and connectivity, which can cater to different preferences. Your observations are valuable for helping us improve the guest experience.
We are glad the multiple living rooms provided options for relaxation and could see how they might benefit larger groups. It's wonderful to know that you found your stay pleasant and would consider returning.
Thank you once again for your thoughtful feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

We went as a group of 12 women in their 40s-50s. I had a hard time finding a place that was tailored for just adults (we didn't want bunk beds.) So this was perfect! The downside is that it had the bare minimum. we wanted more in the kitchen and rooms. But I concentrated on bed arrangement over amenities when I was looking. That is when I learned the difference between a super host and a regular host. I had stayed with a super host the week before and it made a big difference. It would be perfect for a group going out to eat every night or only staying there to sleep. Golf cart and beach proximity made up for what it was lacking. The place was very clean and expertly decorated. No real complaints, I should have read the description better so we could bring the items we needed.
