Nice Property

A bit older home but reasonably well kept. Had a couple of issues that were remedied quickly by management. Located on a GREAT place on the beach. Amenities were excellent and the separate living areas were well thought out and fit our family perfectly.

The beach, the beach, the beach!

Fantastic location, near shopping and great restaurants. The pool could use some maintenance (heater not great) and updating, but being able to walk right out onto the beach is so worth it. The house was clean and well furnished and easily accommodated our family of 10 adults.

Thanksgiving in FL

We really enjoyed our stay in The Mirage. Prepping food for our Thanksgiving feast was easy with the 2 kitchens. The view of the Gulf was gorgeous and made food prepping extra enjoyable. There were more supplies in the kitchen than are listed on the website, such as: a small crock pot, toaster, a chopper, full size coffee pots in both kitchens, and other things I cannot recall. It was a dream come true for me to have all my family under one roof. The Mirage accommodated all 4 families nicely!❤️💝

I loved it but if you have a sensitive nose you are not going to be happy

i loved it very much. stocked well. beautiful. functional. close to the beach. pool. but there is a leak somewhere in the upstairs that was fresh and flowing. the smell caused me to feel ill it was so strong. it was constant. it was actually kind of horrible. soooo if you are sensitive in the ENT to mold, mildew or damp smell this is not the place for you. i really wish i didn't have to type this last part.

Best vacation ever

We had plenty of room for everyone to have their own private area. The pool was great after a day at the beach and the weather was perfect. For the 1st time ever to Florida not a drop of rain! We had to call maintenance 1 time and they came right away and fixed our problem. A special thank you to Lisa who brought us a 9x13 dish from her house after hours. I would highly recommend this house to everyone who loves 30a and the beach as much as our family does.

Great Beach house

House was great. It seems mostly updated, a few things were still needing work like rusty can lights, but nothing that made a difference to our stay. House is big and accommodating for a our group of 9. Public beach access was right next to the house. Beachfront had been decreased by hurricanes. But all of that was easily remedied by walk a short distance to some nice beach front. We would stay here again the pros outway any small cons.

The Mirage

Excellent location and home. Clean and ideal for a family. The pool is so nice to come back to after a day at the beach. The home does need a few improvements- especially before another Hurricane. We had water coming in from the windows and roof. Lost one bedroom due to the leaking so that was inconvenient. The Management company was very responsive in bringing us towels to clean up

Upon entering and going upstairs it is beautifully redone. All windows looking at ocean. Furniture is very nice and comfortable. Bathrooms a plenty. Refrigerator water ice not working outside pool is very nice and it was heated for us for a small fee. Walk down to beautiful beach from stairs.

Great Location, Needs Basic Maintenance

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is in a great location but the owner should really put some basic maintenance into the house during the off season. Simple things like paint, repairable equipment and grounds maintenance and you would have a much better house. The constant issues we had with the pool heater and the entire two day electrical project were a major inconvenience during our Spring Break week. Management was responsive after I got through the answering service but the issues we were having should have been noticed and fixed during the off season.

Made for an amazing wedding getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at this location for a wedding and the location alone was worth every penny. Amazing backdrop and easy access to the beach made this trip one to remember. It was great having enough rooms and kitchen setups to handle all our family in one home. The few things I would suggest for improvements would be more ceiling fans (especially in the bedrooms) and for the rooms on the lowest level to have some kind of dressers for clothes storage. Other than that there was some wear and tear on the stairs to the beach but I imagine that's hard to upkeep in Florida weather. The house was clean and provided practically everything we needed. We would definitely stay at this property again.

Beautiful house

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at The Mirage. The pool was great and beach access was phenomenal. Our only complaints were the balconies were not fully accessible to us due to some structural concerns that we were told would be fixed. However, the lumber wasn't delivered until we were leaving on our last day. Also, the listing said there was a pullout sofa bed on the second floor (which we needed) but it had been removed prior to our stay. Overall we had a great time. Fortunately, we are an easy going group and rolled with the flow. But be sure to ask lots of questions before you get there.

Great Location

We are waiting to see how the owners respond to renting the house knowing that both washing machines are still not working. We had a 4 week old and two 14 month olds and not happy to have to take time away daily to run to a laundry mat. Also after requesting and paying for the pool to be heated they did not verify that it was in working order until Saturday afternoon on our check in day. Of course it needed repairing, which was done and we were able to swim by Wednesday.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house has been beautifully updated. We were 3 families and we fit very well without feeling cramped. It was pure joy to see our 5 grandchildren play in the surf at the beach and in the pool. This house is next to a public beach access. Not my first choice but we enjoyed everyone we met on the beach. The pots and pans in the kitchen were better than what we have experienced from other rentals. I always bring a few of my own anyway. Well stocked kitchen. Benchmark was excellent. They are a top quality company.
