Sweet Sping Break getaway!

The property was phenomenal. You cannot beat the beach access straight from the house. Plenty of room for the kids to play and run around. The crib was a nice bonus so we didn’t have to get out our pack and play. Kitchen was large and well stocked. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating for the whole group. We had the best time!

Perfect Beach Home

Our stay was at the house was wonderful and beach front access was amazing! The house was clean, beds were soo comfortable and the house was so cozy. We loved sitting on the deck at night and walking to the beach or to restaurants during the day. We will be back next year!

Everything was perfect until we found bedbugs in one of the beds. Essentially, we lost the use of that bedroom and some guests had to double up. Communication with the property manager ended with an agreement of a 15% refund for the loss of the bedroom. A month after our stay, the refund was still not given. Except for that issue, i would have given the property 5 stars all around.
