We had a great stay at Lost Colony. The location was perfect — just a short walk to a beautiful, quiet stretch of beach. The house was clean and comfortable, and the deck was a nice place to relax after a day by the water.
Have stayed at several VRBO homes in Port A over the years, and this has become our favorite. Great location with direct gulf view. Clean, comfortable with all the basic necessities.
The property was clean and had everything we needed for a week's trip. The location of the beach access was perfect. Gulf view with easy in and out access.Far enough away from local stores and businesses to feel isolated but still close for eateries and grocery supplies.
We had an amazing time! The house is perfectly located to the beach and pool. The master bedroom view is amazing as well as the view from the balcony. We couldn't ask for a better view and location!
Had a great time with my wife and kids (9 and 6). Great house and proximity to the beach. Will go back!

We absolutely loved the view of the beach from this house! And the house itself was very nice and quite comfortable.
I’m torn on this review, the place itself was just as listed, great location right in the beach, the house itself was great but there small things throughout the trip that added up to me deciding I won’t book this place/management company again.
We were looking for a nice place with ocean views and direct beach accces. Lost Colony delivered everything we were looking for with comfort and ease. Property was clean and comfortable . We will be coming back again! Highly recommend Lost Colony ! relaxing beach experience

My girlfriends and I have been going to Port A for many years and this is by far our favorite place that we have stayed. It is right on the beach and next to the pool. It was clean and spacious, decorated nicely with comfortable furniture. Also a large balcony to enjoy seeing and hearing the ocean. A nice touch was that the host left a thank you gift! We can’t wait to go again! Needless to say this was the perfect place for our girls getaway!

Great view of the beach! Felt like we were right on the water. The house was great, clean and perfect for our group. The community pool was right next to the house. You could lay in bed and look at moon light on the water, storms roll in and sunrises in the morning. We really enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

We had a great time. Fantastic location. Easy access to beach with great views from the house. There is a lot of stairs with turns if you're traveling with an older group. Master and master bathroom were very very nice. No issues with other areas of the house, just not quite as fancy as we thought it would be from the pictures. Parking is tight if you're in pick ups but the over flow parking is close and convenient.
The house was in the perfect location. Direct access to the beach and pool you couldn't pick a better spot. It was well maintained, clean and provided everything you need to accommodate a large family. It is three levels so be prepared for stairs, it was well worth the beach view and privacy. We did have an issue with the bed count but when we notified the management they resolved quickly. Thank you for a beautiful home away from home! This property is well worth it!
it and provided an amazing vir
Overall, it was good. The view was great. The house is right by the boardwalk entrance to the beach, which was super convenient. The house was clean and well represented in the pictures. I wish there were a way to get from the patio to the ground level, but you have to go through the house. The view from the master bedroom was great, but I was disappointed with how dirty the windows were. When there was direct light, the view was obscured by the hazy, windows. There are no restrooms on the ground floor. People coming from the beach who need to use the restroom have to go upstairs through the house. If more than one person needs to use the restroom, you have to go all the way to the top floor, where the other two bathrooms are located.The beach was nice, and our kids had fun in the ocean.We were caught off guard by people driving on the beach, and unfortunately, with it being Spring Break, there were tons of college-age young adults partying there. Periodically, there would be a caravan of police that would come break up their parties, and so they would all get in their cars, crank up their music, and drive down the beach in long, very disruptive caravans. They would rev their engines, fishtail, and sometimes treat the beach like a drag racing strip. My understanding is that this was only normal over spring break, so for those coming at a different time, it might be a better experience.The pool seemed nice, but it was too cold for us to use while we were there.
Its a little beach house located right on the shore within a gated community of similar homes. The location is good, with the ocean visible from the terrace. However, the view is partially obstructed by lush green bushes, which also attract quite a few mosquitoes.
The boardwalk is surrounded by greenery, and while I was initially concerned about snakes in the area, thankfully, I didn’t see any. One downside is that there’s no shower on the ground floor, but there is one on the boardwalk, though it’s also surrounded by the same greenery and mosquitoes. Additionally, the entrance had quite a few ant hills.
The house itself was clean, and the furniture was comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped with almost all the necessary utensils, though it would have been nice to have some basic items like salt and pepper on hand. I also noticed there were no extra throws or blankets; each bed only had a thin sheet-like blanket.
Overall, our stay was enjoyable thanks to the beachside location and reasonable price, but I don’t think I would choose to stay in this house again.
Very refreshing to come to this review on the coast with just leaving a different property not on the coast but was not welcoming at all. Love this place and would recommend it to anyone. Felt like we were wanted there. Good job and keep up the good work.
