Great place! We had an amazing time! The check in/checkout instructions were simple to follow. It was very nice having a washer/dryer & all the kitchen amenities. Only recommendation there would be to add a Keurig. Super convenient to the beach access & pier, delicious food across the street at Island Way & Seahorse, and the view from the porch was unbeatable. Loved that it was so pet friendly with the gates & fenced in area. Comfy beds. And the hosts were very easy to work with when we needed to extend our stay an extra day. It made the perfect place for our fifth anniversary trip. Thanks for having us & we'll be back!The Richardsons

We enjoyed our stay at Reel Nice! You can see the ocean from the balcony which we really enjoyed. The beach access is a quick walk which is very convenient. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need for your stay! We would recommend anyone stay here! The check in process was really easy and we had no issues at all during our stay.
