It was short walk to the beach. Very spacious.
Need to invest in new frying pans. They were old and chipped. Refrigerator stunk when we arrived. Smelled of either a dead mouse or rotten food. We bought 3 baking soda containers and it helped. We understand that the area had gone thru a hurricane so we didn't complain. Decks could use a little brushing off.... hanging baskets were a nice touch. Beds were comfortable.
This spot is a short 5 min walk from the gorgeous beaches. Stocked with everything you could possibly need (including a wagon, coolers, chairs, towels, and unbrellas). It was quiet and the perfect location for our girls’ getaway!
We had family coming from a few different places. The location was great. The condo had plenty of room for 6 adults. We had a great time at the beach. We want to make this a yearly event !!
We all had a great time here. The location is great, with its proximity to the beach and a short walk to restaurants. I loved the fact that the beach was not crowded. The host was very accommodating and we plan to return next year.
This place was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room for my teenagers to spread out. It was clean, updated and only 1 1/2 blocks from the beach. The owners answered our questions quickly. I would definitely stay here again.
Everything we needed for a fun filled family vacation. Property was great, Darcy was very accommodating and responded quickly with all of our questions. Beautiful Beach was a few steps away. We had a wonderful time.
Even though we booked it last minute because the other rental was not accurately described, we had an amazing time and the property was sparkling clean. Pretty awesome deal!
The house was perfect!! Clean and very spacious. Stocked kitchen w all spices and everything you need. Multiple patios. Beds were so comfortable! I would definitely stay again! Perfect distance to beach and restaurants. Tons of beach chairs, umbrella, toys, wagon to pull it in….it was absolutely perfect!
The location was wonderful. Close to restaurants, beach and pickleball. The only issue is the elevator isn't working and if you have people who can't go up two flights of stairs it might be difficult. Especially hauling groceries up those steps. House was very clean. The beach chairs, towels and wagon came in very handy.
Just a couple blocks from the beach, very spacious and clean. They had lots of beach chairs & toys plus a wagon to haul it all in so that was a huge plus with kids. Quiet neighborhood and lots of beds for a big group. There are a ton of stairs at this property so if that’s a problem for you beware that the kitchen/living area is on the third floor. Overall a nice place we’d go back to if in the area again

Owners Matt and Darcy assistance with the area and response time was excellent. House is beautiful. Should add that it's 3 levels and the elevator was out of order. We definitely got our steps in.. even the 80 year old birthday girl !!!
Place was nice with plenty of beds. Some minor issues that need to be addressed. (Broken cabinet door). Overall the place and hosts were both good. Good communication on a last minute repair that was needed
We stayed here with a group of 9 family members. Location is great, with a short walk to the beach. The house overall was in good shape and clean. There were more than enough towels and beach chairs for our entire group. Beds were fairly comfortable. The only thing that could be improved is the cookware in the kitchen. The knives were quite dull and there was a limited number of pans. We love to cook, so this was a challenge for us, but if you plan on dining out while you stay it likely won't be an issue for you. Overall a great stay.
What a stunning house! It was just me, my sister, and our tiny Yorkie twins so it was quite big for us. But if you are a family with lots of people, this home is perfect! Better than the pics. Darcy was excellent and responded right away. This was just what we needed to get away from living in our tiny FEMA trailer while our Hurricane Ian house is being rebuilt. Thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful mansion and for attending to all our needs!
Our family of six adults and two children had a wonderful vacation at this house. We appreciated the convenient location and the many amenities including the beach wagon, toys, chairs, wagon, and towels. The views were wonderful from the balconies/lanais, and we enjoyed the relaxing hot tub. The property managers responded quickly to our communication and were very professional and helpful. We were made aware a week prior to our trip that the elevator wasn't working. It would have been helpful if it was working with our little ones since the house is three levels. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and recommend this vacation house!
Great house and property. Did not like that we lost tv on Thursday evening and did not like that we could not control the ac in kitchen. There were days when it was 78 degrees in there. Ice makers did not work and the shower head in the master bathroom didn't work. Also the knob on the jet tub, washer and stove were broke. I feel with these few things being fixed it would make for an even better stay.
Would of liked the owner to have called or emailed to make sure there were no issues and that we got checked in alright
My family and I loved this beautiful home. We created wonderful summer family vacation memories in this home. We loved its space and also being able to walk up to the beach was perfect.
