Perfect location

We love staying in Maravilla, it is the perfect location to walk to our favorite restaurants and the beach service and pools are so convenient! This house was perfect for our family with 3 teenagers. We had our own space and spent time together but also were able to get independent times as well. I would stay here again!

Perfect beach getaway

This was our 3rd time staying here, and I’m sure we will be back for a fourth time next year! We love how with this beach house you get the whole house to yourself and are a quick walk to the beach and pool! It’s in the absolute perfect location, well equipped, and you can bring your pets too!!! The beach service (2 chairs and an umbrella already set up) is such a great perk that’s included with this property!

Surprise trip

This was a surprise trip for my husband who was recently diagnosed with colon cancer. My daughter rented a nearby property and she was married in a private ceremony. The surprise and joy on my husband’s face was everything to us! The property was well maintained and clean. We enjoyed the amenities of the complex but also the privacy of being in a house. The check in and check out process was easy, and communication with Stephanie was always timely. We hope to return in the fall and would definitely stay again!!

Great family vacation !

This was our 4th time coming back to this beach house and just like the last 3 times we had a wonderful time! We love how close of a walk it is to the beach, and that our pets can tag along with us! Can’t wait to come back next summer!

Beach fix!

This property grew on us wonderfully over our week... so easy to make it our own as we enjoyed both outdoor spaces front and back, as well as cozying up around the living room and dining areas! So convenient to the pool and with a short walk to beach... shortest available from our area of SFH's! The communication with Stephanie was swift and always encouraging! We did buy or brought extra needed supplies for cleaning, upkeep but so easy to maintain. Thankful for our restorative beach week fix!

On Spring Break from Kentucky

We really like this property. We had some very minor issues with linens and the communication with the property manager was great. She was so responsive. I think the house was a good value in a gated area with plenty of amenities.

Family getaway

My daughter had 1 week off from med school this summer and wanted to go to the beach and relax. Sea Joy was the perfect spot. Just steps from the pool and beach. We enjoyed our stay and Stephanie was a wonderful VRBO host. She was always quick to respond to questions. The cottage is clean and inviting. Would highly recommend!

Great location, excellent setup for kids. Extremely easy checkout instructions. Property was pretty clean. Only real gripe is lack of essentials (only 2 dishwasher soap pods, only one spare roll of toilet paper, etc.)

We had a wonderful time! My daughter and I were beyond impressed with the clean floors, bed linens and bath towels. It smelled and felt very clean and comfortable.
