What an incredible find this place is! The property was easy to find, ample parking, check in was a breeze. Its family friendly and has a very communal feel in that all the things you would need to make your day at the beach are provided! For example, we were able to use beach chairs, umbrellas and shark tooth sifting equipment whenever we wanted, just with the stipulation that you return it when done. Everyone was incredibly friendly and the place is spotless. We will be back for sure and can't wait!

The place was clean and was a perfect beach weekend place. My friend and I stayed in a smaller unit. It worked great for what we needed. The beach and pool are amazing. They even have some shark tooth stuff to use. Very quiet.

This is a perfect place for beach lovers. I found sharks teeth and shells. They supplied everything from beach towels, chairs, sifters, and pool floaties. The host answered any questions I had and was quick with their response. All that had to be done at checkout was to leave the keys in the room. I will definitely come back here on my next trip to Florida.

Quaint oasis on the beach

We stayed for a long weekend at the end of May and it was everything we were looking for! We enjoyed the quiet atmosphere, access to pool with pool toys and being so close to the beach! Added bonus was the shark tooth sifters, and yes - we found some right on Golden beach. The other beach’s were a very short drive with was great for us too. Highly recommend this rental and will definitely be back!

Great location! Beautiful view, very nice pool. This efficency was very small but works. If i was them i would remove the corner shelves and put a dresser there. No place to put clothes except a small closet for hanging a few things! Description was not the most accurate. No bikes or kyaks to rent and no ice maker! The furniture they show is in the common room. Happy with vacation next time would get a bigger unit!
