10/10 recommend! House was clean and comfortable. Kitchen stocked with everything we needed and beds are comfy. Laundry room downstairs was very useful. Easy access to the beach in either direction from the house. Host was always quick to respond with any questions we had. We have stayed several times and will continue to choose The Beach Bucket every chance we get.

The house was wonderful and as expected. The only thing was plan on waking up early on checkout day and washing your towels and sheets. We were up at 7 and still didn’t get them completely dry. I guess we should have paid for a service or brought our own.

Exceeded our expectations! The Beach Bucket was an ideal location to the beach access as well as shopping and restaurants.
