Summer

My entire family had a great time! The house was great and the swim spa was wonderful Some suggestions- blinds in living room- it got hot by noon and no privacy at night. Ceiling fans on the deck. A broom or dustbuster- too cumbersome to get the vacuum out each time.

Beautiful spacious home right on the beach. Loved that there was a bathroom in each bedroom. Great having a refrigerator up stairs and down stairs. Nice quiet location on the west end of the island. Hot tub was nice and spacious. Would definitely stay again!

The location of the house was great and the setup with multiple beds and baths had our group so excited. Unfortunately the hot tub was broken the entire time- which was known by local team & not communicated to us until after several messages with Vacasa. The fridge was small, the ice maker didn’t work, the oven was spotty, and there were SO MANY roaches!!

Perfect location

Truly this was the most amazing location; every morning you walk down the stairs onto the beach. There’s dolphins in the water and crabs scurrying around the sand. Really really spectacular. Only negative was we fixed the broken door knob (glad my husband had tools to fix it) and the pool was sandy. Granted being on the beach, it’s very hard to keep the water spotless. Would come here again in a heart beat!

Very Nice and Welcoming

This was a very nice house. Room for the entire family. Only complaint was the swarming termites we found on the first night. We didn’t know about the swarming season. Management Co swiftly sent termite co out and rectified the situation. LOVED that the beach was steps from the house. Deck with swim spa was great.

Family Vacation 2023

We had a party of 13 and there was plenty of space for sleeping, cooking, eating, lounging. The beach and hot tub were the highlights of the house, obviously! The only downside to this property were the deck grill did not work, no dressers in the bedrooms and there was minimal space for bathroom toiletries. We did report the grill to property management, and they were responsive. Although we were unable to use the grill, they were working to get it fixed. I would definitely recommend this property if you're looking for a quiet beach get away!

We won't stay here again.

So I'll be kind but direct. I've already sent a message to the owner of this home in reference to the issues we had with this home, but to help anyone who comes here in the future, these are our suggestions. The fridge/freezer has limited space, so be selective on how much frozen product you bring. We would recommend bringing a cooler with ice for overflow. There is also no open cabinet space, except for small shelves at the end of the kitchen island. I recommend bringing your own Roku. Some of the remotes were either missing or had no batteries. If this doesn't appeal to you, I recommend bringing a DVD player. Cell service at the west end is poor, so we recommend a Hotspot for this trip. Wi-Fi was also spotty & we lost connection completely during our trip. A DVD player would've been wonderful to enjoy after a long day in the sun, during rainy days, & when the wifi went out. Bring spices, pans & cooking utensils. If you have a large party, the pans aren't big enough to cook a large meal or multiple meals without washing dishes during and after every meal. Bring pillows and blankets. There are only 2 twin pillows per king-size bed. There are extra pillows in the closets, but there are no extra pillow cases or linens provided if you want to use them. Bring Tupperware, ziplocks, aluminum foil, cleaning supplies, dish rags, Radio/blue tooth speaker, cards and board games. The coffee pot is both a normal pot and the option for Keurig cups.
