This beach house was a blast! The heated pool was a daily must (and nightly too), and the golf cart made getting to the beach and around town easy and fun. The house was comfy, clean, and had everything we needed. Zero stress, maximum vacation vibes. We’d book it again in a heartbeat!

We had an amazing stay at this beach house! The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. The heated pool and spacious outdoor area were highlights—perfect for lounging, meals, and evenings together. Having a golf cart included was a huge bonus and made getting around so easy. The location is absolutely perfect, with convenient beach access and everything close by. The hosts were responsive and thoughtful, making the entire experience seamless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Beach Bliss

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Pura Playa! The house and property were very clean and it was the perfect setup for our family of six. We loved the pool with the privacy fence and appreciated the extra perks such as a ping pong table, corn hole, beach toys and the golf cart. We were minutes away from the beach which made the experience even better. We would definitely stay here again!

ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!

Before booking the house we had a few questions and the owners wrote back right away. Great location, close to town and to the beach! When we arrived the house and pool were clean and ready for us to enjoy our vacation. Having the golf cart included made our trip a lot more simple! The pingpong table was super fun to have for the evenings. Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. We will for sure be back!

Family mini vacation

This is our second time renting from this property manager. The house was perfect for our family mini vacation this past weekend. This house is super close to the beach. You can walk or take the golf cart. The golf cart is the perfect addition! Our kids loved riding around in it almost as much as going to the beach :) No issues and will def stay again.

This stay was so much fun! The golf cart on hand was great to have, the heated pool was perfect, and the house itself was cozy and had lots of room. They provided beach chairs and those came in handy! We left our cooler and some pool floats for the next guests to use as a thank u to the owners! Owners were also super nice when we ran into a problem they called us back super quick and got it handled. Would stay again!

The property was clean and had everything we needed. The outside area was well maintained as described. The only problem was the heater on the pool was not working for us. The manager was great about communication though. We would stay here again!
