Charming & Cute

This pet-friendly home offers a nice blend of indoor and outdoor living. The house is a comfortable respite from long days spent at the nearby beach. The backyard is inviting, with a nicely landscaped little pool area that's perfect for relaxation and unwinding after the day’s activities. The only drawback during our stay was that upon arrival the provided beach chairs were a sandy mess behind the tiki bar—merely a cleaning issue, but still disappointing that we needed to tidy the area to fully enjoy our stay.

The property was nice. I left a note when we left. The one blind needs replaced and the blue plastic glasses were not in the best shape. The bed was very comfortable. The outside was great for the dogs. I wish we could have stayed longer. Thanks so much Jan

Great Location Small Pool

House was exactly as I expected a n older beach bungalow! Property was very clean upon arrival and communication from the renting company was on point! The only issue for me was the pool area! I believe the outdoor area could be better maintained and the pool a bit bigger other than that the stay was as expected!

Perfect single family get-away

My husband and our 4 children stayed here for vacation. The beach was a convenient short walk away, as well as being close to shopping and restaurants. The private pool at the home got used by our four children every day, as well as the outdoor tv and grill. We will be back!

Family vacation

The landscaping was in poor condition. The tiki bar area was very dirty. The inside was pretty clean. Little hand prints and some dried food on walls around dining table. Bathrooms were neat and clean. The pictures of the pool were much better than the actual look of the pool. It was listed as a 3 bedroom but it didn't tell you that you had to go through the master bedroom or through a backdoor to get to the bunk room. The location was the best part. Only 2 blocks to the gorgeous beach!

Loved our time near the beach!

We booked our stay after reading all of the reviews, looking at other properties and knowing we wanted somewhere that would be dog friendly. Check in process was easy! We arrived and it was clean and just as the photos and listing described. It was less than 3 blocks from the beach, we could easily get around and be close to everything. Only things I wish we would have done- asked about the automatic lock to ensure we were working it properly or asked for more information on the pool heater! We came at a time where the weather took a deep dive and the heater may have made it a little better! Other than that- we loved our stay and would stay again!

Cute little house

We enjoyed our stay & I would recommend for small families. I read the info given in property details & reviews before I booked so I knew the layout of the house was odd& I knew the pool was small- but it was perfect for us. For the price we paid in cleaning fees, I expected the property to be immaculate & it was not. It was very tidy, but there was sand all over the floors throughout the house & some dark liquid under the entrance dining table & in bathroom. I don't mind cleaning but not when I arrive somewhere that was supposed to be cleaned for me. I traveled with my husband, my 2 year old & our dogs. The layout is odd, but I've lived in old houses my entire life & am used to it. This house has 5 entry/exit doors. The living room area is small, it worked for us but if you had more adults it would not be the most comfortable watching tv. The bedroom with the king bed is attached to the bunk room. So whoever is sleeping in the bunk room either needs to go through the king room to get to the rest of the house, including a bathroom or they need to exit one of 2 entry doors in that room to go outside & around to one of the other entrances. Bunk room has window unit that needs cleaning. There are no tubs. The kitchen was great & had everything you would need, but you need salt, pepper, etc. For dog owners, the backyard is fenced but has a few holes they could possibly get out if not watching & they had sago palms. But it is lovely & perfect location. Short walk to beach!
