We had a fantastic stay. The location was perfect, the house was spotless, very comfortable, and had everything we needed. The host was incredibly responsive and there are great local restaurant options near by. We would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a relaxing beach getaway!
Nice place..I’ve stayed at the property before when a friend used to own the Cabin. Would love to stay again in the future. The only thing would to fix the lock on the front door. We enjoyed our stay.
Host very responsive. Lovely home from home. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so glad you felt at home and had a great experience. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I truly appreciate the recommendation. You're welcome back anytime!
This property was super clean! All the amenities were present that we needed. I made dinner every night as it was just my husband and I. They had everything I needed. Also a crockpot and air fryer. Right down the road from the big store. We were able to drive the golf cart on the beach to the next neighborhood and avoid getting out on the main highway to go to the grocery store! The house is very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay again.

Hi Nancy, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We strive to make sure how guest have a relaxing and comfortable stay in our beautiful home. Looking forward to hosting you again.
This house was wonderful for two friends and our four kids. The interior and exterior spaces are all fresh and nicely furnished. The kitchen was fully stocked with the basics plus a crockpot, air fryer, blender, and a kitchen aid mixer! The big island was great for meal prep and meals. We enjoyed every square inch of space and would absolutely return. The wagon, beach chairs, boogie boards, and sand toys were all put to good use. The walk to the beach is easy, about 7 minutes for our crew. The hose in the driveway and outdoor shower were both useful for cleaning off salt and sand before going back upstairs. We give this place 5 stars!!!
This was the perfect little start of summer getaway for the my girl and a few friends! The house is SUPER cute and perfect for friends that want to stay in a room together because of the bunk beds! I LOVE the kitchen area! The huge center island was perfect and they had everything you need in there to cook whatever you want. They had some games that were available to play, flashlights for the beach at night and even had the option to use some of their chairs and beach toys from the garage. The house was SUPER clean and could tell it is kept up nicely! We will for sure stay here again when we have all the kids!

I chose Beach Holiday because it offers the perfect blend of convenience and coastal charm. With its private beach access, guests can enjoy the sand and surf just steps away. Plus, it’s less than a mile from The Big Store, where you’ll find all your beach essentials and more. The neighborhood is also centrally located near some of the best restaurants in the area, making it easy to enjoy great dining and a relaxing getaway all in one perfect spot!

Families will love the two sets of bunk beds for the kids and the baby essentials provided, including a high chair, walker, baby tub, and pack ‘n play. Outside, the large deck with plenty of seating and a grill creates the perfect spot for relaxing and making memories by the beach!
