We found the house to be clean and what we needed for a great stay. We rented the golf cart for ease of travel to the beach and restaurants close by. No issues with the property and plenty of space for six of us. The bikes were not really functional as all but one of the bikes had flat tires and would not hold air. Wifi was good and everything was as advertised.
Great location and down from all of the crowds. Easy beach access. House is beautiful and plenty big enough. Only issue was sand in the sheets in one of the beds upon arrival. Large fee for housecleaning so sheets should undoubtedly be clean otherwise I would have given it five stars all around. Manager quickly responded and rectified that issue. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will be back!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The house’s aesthetic is modern and clean but also cozy and comfortable. The house was impeccably clean, and very well decorated. We felt so comfortable staying at this house. Our kiddos loved having a tv in their rooms. The back deck was perfect for hanging out and reading or lounging around and visiting. The kitchen is HUGE with ample counter space. While we only stayed here with our immediate family of 4 we plan to stay here again with extended family.
The staff was prompt and very helpful when we encountered a problem with the front door lock. They immediately sent out someone (on a holiday) to attend to the problem and even called the next day to confirm the problem had been solved. The only thing I would say needs improvement or maybe attention would be the wireless internet. We encountered a few periods of the internet being down or sluggish. However I believe this is noted in the contract and didn’t detract from our wonderful stay. We can’t wait to come back!!

Too expensive for what you get
Overall we had an okay stay. The house was very nice and roomy but I feel like they oversell the location/proximity to the beach. It might be a 15 minute walk to the beach if you are solo but when you add all the beach gear definitely takes more like 30 minutes walking. Thank goodness we rented a separate golf cart! The house is NOT well stocked at all. Be prepared to have to buy everything for your stay here- trash bags, dish soap, paper towels, and even TP. The stuff they provide is cheap and thin- didn’t want to use theirs anyway. They don’t tell you in the description about all of this until AFTER you pay! There were very limited spices for cooking and we even ended up having to use our own salt and pepper. There was also no table to eat at. Just have to eat at the counter - guess that’s my fault since there was no table in the pictures- just something I missed. Beds were pretty soft and lumpy; at least the beach wore us out so we still slept okay. The upstairs guest bed felt like a futon mattress though. The upstairs deck was very nice but it was difficult to get any kind of air flow from the fan. Seemed to have one setting which was low and couldn’t even tell it was on so we ended up not using the outdoor area as much as we would have liked. We did talk to management and they did provide us with several things the house was missing but we actually burned our hands using the cheap pot holders they bought us, so again, may want to even bring your own dish towels and pot holders! The house looked pretty clean but the main air filter on the first floor was disgusting and there was all sorts of dirt and dust under the beds. A maintenance guy did end up coming to clean it out but then just left all the dirt on the floor for us to clean up. I would say for the price you pay for this place, you should be well taken care of and we did not feel that way. Your money is better spent elsewhere. Honestly would not recommend and will not be staying here again.
This house was a great stay for our girls trip. Would definitely recommend paying for the golf cart usage as the 0.7 mile walk to beach can be a lot with carrying chairs & coolers. Quiet street, close by to Blue Mountain Ice Cream & lots of space within the house to stretch out. Would definitely book here again!
