Our family had a wonderful 4 night stay! Things we loved- the spacious house was well equipped with anything we could need for a beach vacation. The basement was a music lovers dream and it was so fun to hang out there at night.
Host was easy to communicate with. It was just as described, plenty of room for our family to spread out. The golf cart was a big hit and help make the stay better. We would rent here again.
Great beachwalk rental! My family and I have rented many beachwalk properties over the years and this was one of our favorites. Everything we needed was available, fun basement, comfortable beds, great open space to hang out with large family.
The property was excellent—the owners clearly take great pride in their place. Very well maintained and clean and very clear instructions for everything, including the amazing music themed basement complete with stereo, CD’s, LP’s and a Karaoke set up. It felt like an honor that the owners would share this wealth of music with us! This is a perfect property in a wonderful family resort. The only thing that would make it better would be if they would upgrade their beds. The beds (most of them) were not very comfortable. Nonetheless, my family gives this an excellent rating. Thank you Anders! -George B

Thanks for your review and I’m glad you had a great stay. Regarding the beds, nearly all mattresses were replaced two years ago with higher-end mattresses so I’m sorry to hear they didn’t work well for you. We look forward to seeing you again.
We absolutely loved your home. You thought of everything. My family an I were very comfortable and at no time did we feel no less than at home. We thank you again. Don’t be surprised if you see us booking around Thanksgiving!
This was the perfect house for our family getaway. We had an amazing time enjoying the basement amenities — both the kids and adults loved the karaoke and pool table. The kitchen was fully stocked with every appliance, dish, and utensil you could possibly need, which made cooking and gathering together easy and enjoyable. We had such a great experience that we already plan to come back next year!
We had such a wonderful time here! The house was perfect for our whole family, grandparents and young kiddos included. It had everything we needed and we could not have asked for a better host!
We recently stayed for a long weekend and had a great time! The house was perfect and the hosts were friendly and easy to work with. Will definitely book again!
Wonderful host and property. No issues with anything and the host was very responsive for quick, easy questions. The place was very nice, would definitely come back again!
Our weekend getaway was an absolute delight at this VRBO! The home was furnished with everything we could imagine from every kitchen appliance to extra blankets and toiletries one could need. The karaoke stage in the basement was amazing and it was so fun to see how the passion for music came out in the decor. We will definitely be returning!
A group of us rented this property to celebrate a co-worker’s retirement. It was the perfect gathering spot! We walked to the beach, hung out around the fire pit, played games, and did lots of karaoke. Such an amazing weekend at a beautiful place!
We booked this house for a bachelor party. It was the perfect amount of room and had great amenities! Karaoke and pool table were a huge plus and Anders was a great host! Would highly recommend
The property, location and host were all great. The host communication was excellent. The house was clean, in a great location and we had so much fun! We're already looking to come back next year.
Fantastic place to stay for kids/adults of all ages!
On sunny days you have the pool, beach, kayaking, bicycling, etc., and if it rains, there are movies, video games, books, pool table, karaoke, and more. Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy their separate activities, with a nice large kitchen and eating area to gather for family meals. I would highly recommend this property.
We had such a wonderful stay at this home! The house was spacious, comfortable, and had everything we needed for fantastic trip. The kitchen had lots of room to cook and gather, was fully equipped, and perfect for enjoying meals together.The basement was such a fun bonus space with Ms. Pac-Man, karaoke, and a pool table—it kept everyone entertained for hours! The owner was extremely responsive and made the whole process easy from start to finish.Highly recommend this home for families or groups looking for space, comfort, and plenty of fun extras. We’d definitely stay here again!
