⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail. For this reason, we recommend that guests do not book using Klarna, Affirm, or similar services. If a reservation is attempted using one of these payment methods and the payment declines, the guest will be required to provide an alternative form of payment or cancel the reservation.

This is a very nice, freshly redone house. We liked the hot tub out by the back porch and the close proximity of the swimming pool and community hot tub.
Thanks!
The large like new home was spectacular for 4 couples. Each bedroom has a spacious walk in bath, nice TVs, and a couple have sitting areas as well. The ktchen is great and we enjoyed the private hot tub and sharing
meals at the fenced in patio. Also enjoyed the community swimming pool and tennis courts HIghly recommended and would definately book again. .

Great Property!
Great property. Wonderful location. We rent in this location every year. The property management team at SPI Rentals were very responsive to the only two minor issues we encountered. (Slow flushing toilet and WiFi connection). Both were resolved immediately. We will definitely be back.
This is a great property and better than pictured. Walking distance to beach. Very comfortable and cool when hot outside. Sheets were soft on sunburned skin. Gated community and security guards made it feel very safe. Pool was great and well maintained. The only complaint is that it was hardly stocked. I’ve never stayed at a place where I had to bring my own salt and coffee filters. There was no sponge to wash the dishes and we cook a lot. So if you stay here, take everything!
