The house accommodated our entire family and the pool was great. We did have an issue with the A/C on the second floor. The maintenance person responded quickly. This is a great house for a family with children. ##### Diane A.

Christina was amazing. Some nice to haves would be an outdoor shower (or maybe we didn’t see it) and an out door hose to set up my sprinkler for the kids. Not a big deal. Wonderful property! ##### claudia g. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalie M. 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My family enjoyed our vacation and our stay at this beautiful beach home. Our property manager was amazing, from day 1 to end of our stay, even allowing a later check out time due to travel plans. The house was warm and welcoming and beautifully decorated. We had plenty of family dinners and appreciated more than enough kitchen wares to make that happen for our group of 13\. The pool was great especially for our younger guests. We appreciated having beach chairs and plenty of sand toys for our kids, that came with staying at the home. We left behind some pool toys too for others to enjoy. Access to the water taxi was an awesome experience! My family truly had an amazing time, highly recommend this home for rental! We had the most amazing stay! ##### Natalie M.

This house is absolutely perfect for a trip with friends. Between the multiple floors, it’s perfect for multi-family as well. The house is about a .2 walk to the beach entrance but includes 1 cart and a few beach chairs - no tent which is understandable. Overall, we loved our stay and will be back. ##### Ryan C.

It was clean. It is in a convenient, but more private location. It is not directly on a busy street, yet it is close to everything. The beach is a short walk away. The downstairs area was great for the children. It was like their own little retreat. We did not really utilize the area under the deck but I should note that when we stayed, there were beach chairs, pool toys and a wagon. Overall, the place was perfect for us. The driveway was really nice but the photos make it look wider and longer. It was fine for our group. ##### Mary C.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to make it an annual trip and stay in the same house. It was perfect for our three families (including 7 children). ##### Melany S.

A wonderful experience renting through VRBO ! The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, clean, and well stocked with towels and basic supplies. All by all , I would rent that property again !

We all enjoyed the accommodations very much. We especially enjoyed the many decks, reading nooks and decor! It was perfect for everyone to be able to maintain their own privacy but also have a large enough space for us all to come together. The host was very accommodating with all requests. ##### Miranda H.
