Gorgeous and close to the beach!

We had 11 women staying here for our annual work getaway! It was spacious and we loved sitting on the upstairs balcony with coffee and gentle ocean breezes! We loved the easy access to the beach as well! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

Great Home !

The house was excellent. It had everything you could need, the kitchen was very well-equipped, and the house is very close to the beach and the pool. I recommend renting a golf cart for added convenience. We loved the resort! I would definitely stay at the house again!

Great home for multiple friends/families

Awesome location and beautiful home. We stayed comfortably with 3 families and all our kids. Bunk room connected to a playroom was a huge bonus! Keep in mind the bunk room/playroom is on the first floor with doors that lead to the outside. The second floor kitchen, living area, and outside patio was a great space for meals and games together!

Luxury at Port A!

Murica was the nicest vacation home we’ve ever stayed in! We didn’t want to leave. The beds are so plush, like sleeping on a cloud. Having coffee on the upstairs deck with views of the ocean and a gentle breeze was a dream—even when it was sizzling hot, it felt pleasant. The mundane like showering and cooking were enjoyable at Murica because the aesthetic and attention to detail made everything fun. Our family spent many nights snuggling and playing games on the huge, comfy couch. Thank you for sharing your home!

Look no further, stay here!

‘Merica was beautiful and decor was well thought out throughout the entire home, down to the very last detail. It felt like staying in a beach house straight out of a magazine. The owner clearly has invested a lot of time and energy into considering how to make someone’s stay as comfortable as possible. The beds in each bedroom and large couch in the family area were amazing, so comfortable! The quality of the sound system for the tv in the living room was incredible! There was ample space. The air conditioners kept the entire house cool to be able to enjoy after a long hot day at the beach. You won’t be disappointed!
