Clean and cozy!

We LOVED Beach Joy! It was the perfect little house for our 20th Anniversary. Unfortunately, the a/c died while we were there. BUT, the rental company moved us to a beachside property for the remainder of our stay at no additional cost! If and when we come back to the Island, we would love to stay at Beach Joy again :)

Comfy & Cozy

This is a great place for a couple or a family with 1-2 children. A golf cart is provided which made it really convenient to access the beach although the beach is within walking distance. Very pristine and very comfortable beds....we took advantage of the laundry room facilities. Beach accessories are provided which is another convenience...

Great little quiet nest to stay in.

This place is small, but very comfortable. It is well stocked with good quality items. We were very comfortable here. The place is quiet and very close to the beach.The golfcart was a plus. There is a wagon for transporting to the beach. Lots of towels, chairs umbrellas and other essentials. A great place to rent for sure.

House was exactly as described. Clean and cozy with good a/c. Outside deck was a little hazardous with age and exposed screws but otherwise very nice property.

Lovely place

Stayed a week with my wife and children ages 11,12,16. Great location near the beach and the bay. The outdoor deck was great. For 5 it was maybe a bit tight with one bathroom but we really enjoyed our stay on the island and the location of the house. Two chickens even visited every day we were there. I would recommend bringing bug spray.

Perfect!

This was the perfect little beach house. It’s laid out so well. It was VERY clean. We had absolutely everything we needed. Check in/out was SO simple. No hassle of having to stop by a rental office on the way in or out. I absolutely loved it and would definitely rent this house again.
