We had a great time here! Great location close walk to the beach. Would love to stay again and hopefully come back. Tons of room for a big group of people like we had. Only wish the host was a bit more responsive and some better dusting. But overall amazing stay and would highly recommend

Amazing family vacation

Comfortable beach house. My family loved the amount of space inside, the location to the beach was also a major bonus. My only downside was that all the beds, except 1, had plastic mattress covers, which made sleeping difficult. But for the price, the house is perfect.

Great location. Easy nice walk to the beach but the house was not clean. There was roaches in the kitchen and bedrooms of the house. Sand still in the corners. The dishwasher also leaked and the down stairs bathroom door hinge was basically tore completely loose. Place has great potential if cleaned and roaches exterminated

Wish it was setup better for a large family. The grill was in poor condition and missing a grade on top .

The house was an easy and quick walk to the beach and the owner was easy to get a hold of. My only negative was that the house was not very clean. I had to clean the showers, kitchen counters, and vacuum the day we got there. Other than that I have zero complaints.

Great location

Nestled in trees gives a privacy to the property! The walk to the beach was approximately 2-3 minutes and the beach was not crowded at all. Neighbors were very friendly and talkative. The kids enjoyed playing basketball and table tennis while waiting on the old folks ! 2 coffee makers was a pleasant surprise for those with different tastes. We will stay again !

When we got there the trash was over flowing and the house wasnt very clean. The kitchen sink faucet was really lose, someone had popped out a screen and left a pan outside on the side of the house. The house itself had plenty of space and we had great communication with the host. I think the host just doesnt have a good cleaner. Over all we had a great stay the only inconvenience was messaging the hosts to try to tell them about all the extra stuff we kept finding so we wouldnt be charged for it.

Great Stay

Great place to stay. Plenty of amenities. Good location and not far from the beach. Only suggestion would be a better wash off area, but all in all a great place to stay.

Great house!

Had a problem getting someone to answer come my check in time to get the code to get in and the wifi password. Once that was handled had to run to store n grab cleaner to clean up (walking into cobwebs and dirty floors) after that it was great! Beautiful house and location very close to the water!

Awesome location walk to the beach! Had an amazing amount of towels. We ran into some snags which I told the owner about leaking washing machine etc but no big deals. All in all would definitely stay there again.

Birthday weekend

We had a great visit, enjoying the quick walk to the beach, shops and food right near by and the home itself was very clean, spacious and comfortable! Definitely recommend staying here! We will certainly do so as a family the next time that we travel to the coast. :)

Wonderful for a large family

My mother in law loved the kitchen. We had a great time here. I was pretty nervous around the stairs with my two young kids since you can see in between them and there’s a little gap but we were just extra careful and chose the room downstairs and had no issues!

Cute and Roomy

It was fun living in a cute beach house for a week! It really is just a short walk to the beach. There are wonderful restaurants nearby. I think everything we needed was there in the house. There were just three of us plus a dog but this would be a great place for a party/reunion — lots of comfy beds!

Perfect!!!

Had such a wonderful time staying in this home for the week, it fit all of us and it was a bit cozy but we made it work! The house seemed brand new and like we could have been the first or second group to ever stay there. Highly recommend this property, affordable and accommodating in a perfect spot on the island, and Steven was so quick to respond and so helpful whenever we needed it.

My review

This house is very cute and does have all the amenities listed.It is a short walk to beach, which was nice.This is a new listing, and my first time using VRBO so I was a little skeptical .We did have a few issues, but the property manager was very diligent working with us to clear up the problems! We had a large group and I would say overall our stay was very enjoyable!

Beach week

Well, we love the decorations and the proximity to the beach. However, there were food and ants under my kids bed and the washing machine kept leaking. We ending up leaving a day early to avoid the flooding machine. If that issue was fixed it would have been great. I also missed a lot of beach time waiting for a repair man who did not show up.

Great location- spacious for my family

The location of the house is great-it’s only a short walk to the public beach access. Plenty of room for my family of seven and they had fun using the ping pong table and Basketball game. There was consistency in other reviews, such as the warmth of the front room, though fans were available. We also left the door cracked and was comfortable. The house does have an odor when you walk in, like a musky smell or animal smell, but it is clean and it was not overwhelming. All of our questions were addressed in a timely manner. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this property for a family.
