This house was perfect to celebrate my one year anniversary ! Central to where we most wanted to go. The house needed just a few more things like toilet paper, a mop, larger pans to cook and kitchen ware. If a family plans to cook just know it comes with no seasonings but overall very very comfortable and quiet!

We had a great time at Sandy Cheeks, it was the perfect place for our family to stay. We were on AMI for a family wedding but will be back again for longer vacation. The location was a 10/10, especially loved walking to Bean Point for the spectacular sunsets.

Perfect place on end of island

This property was great! Away from most of the action yet easily accessible by golf cart (a must rent on the island). Many nearby beaches to enjoy. The house is in great condition and very clean.

We had an amazing stay! The private plunge pool was a perfect way to cool off after a day at the beach, and the location can’t be beat just a short walk to beautiful, secluded Bean Point.The home was spotless on arrival and very well maintained throughout. The kitchen was impressively stocked with everything we needed for home cooking, which made meals easy and enjoyable.Overall, fantastic property that delivered on comfort, cleanliness, and location. We’d happily stay here again!

Cutest House and Perfect Vacation!

I stayed here with 3 friends, and the house was perfect! The outside area was so nice at night. The pool was very nice to have. The house was so cute and so nicely decorated. It was a quick commute to the beach and to all the little shops and the piers. I highly recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed this house....very beautiful home and fully stocked with all you need. The location was the best for us as we love Rod N Reel Pier! The only suggestions I would make are ceiling fans in the bedrooms and an outdoor shower. Other than that, pretty perfect! Thanks so much for having us!
