My family has been vacationing at Wild Dunes for nearly 30 years, and during that time we have stayed in numerous properties. This home was, without question, the best one we have experienced.From the time we booked the property until our departure, communication from Michael and his team was outstanding. The home has been recently updated and provided a warm, inviting space for our family. We especially enjoyed spending time on both the front and back porches, as well as the comfortable indoor living areas.Having two beach chairs and an umbrella included with our stay was a thoughtful and much-appreciated amenity. The location simply cannot be beat. Situated in the heart of Wild Dunes, the property is just a short walk to the beach, tennis center, golf course, and hotels.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Wild Dunes.
