Winter Get Away

Enjoyed our stay. The house is very comfortable and spacious! Was able to cook many dinners with ample supplies in the kitchen. Loved hanging outside in the evening on the 3rd floor balcony and watching the sunset.

Very nice, but....

The house was as advertised and the development is nice. The house was clean and roomy, but some paint finishes and appliances are getting long-in-the-tooth (the 4-star cleanliness rating). The private beach is Gulf lovely but very small and crowded. The nearby public beach is better but you must drive to it. The landlord's communication and process was first-rate. Overall, a very nice trip.

Overall Very Disappointing

It’s a very worn house. We were greeted with a cockroach in the kitchen, no sheets on one bed, the kitchen was infested with ants and the blinds on the door came crashing down in the family room when we tried to open it. We had to buy ant spray and ant traps because ants were crawling all over the food on counter and floor. Placemats were dirty and had dried food all over them…..and a large mixing bowl and fry pan were covered in black char. Overall….kitchen was disgusting. Fridge did not keep things cold at all and motor struggled the whole time. Everything in freezer was soft. Worst house we’ve rented in 25 years.

Great Vacation Home

The house was exactly as advertised. Very spacious, clean, and incredibly comfortable. We enjoyed the many porches to relax after long days in the sun. Access to the trams and pool made getting to and from the beach and the pool easy.

Perfect Place

The house was exactly as presented, no surprises... which is what great vacations (and vacation homes) should provide. The space was furnished to accommodate families, the kids loved the bunk room. The kitchen was well stocked with the small wares and items you needed. The Beds were comfortable. Having 4 bikes available was a fantastic convenience as was the gas grill with plenty of propane. We would definitely rent this property again.

PERFECT STAY on 30a

We had 10 people in the house, 2 kids, 2 older teens, and 6 adults. Everyone talked about how comfortable and high quality the house was, beds, furniture, sheets, dishes, not one complaint! Each room having its own bathroom made it so convenient on our group. We never ran out of hot water and we had a lot of showers!!!!!!! We LOVED the community and how friendly everyone was. We loved that we had options of pool, private beach, and that the less crowded public beach was less than 10 minutes away! Great places to eat within walking/biking distance! We enjoyed the bikes and beach toys provided with the house. Highly recommend staying here!!!!

College Graduate Family Celebration Vacation

My family and I wanted to have a chance to celebrate our son's graduation and this was a perfect home for it. We were also able to bring our "grand dog" with us too. It was her first time to visit the beach. The house was very clean and had everything we needed from kitchen ware to beach items to help make our stay relaxing. The amount of beds and space was perfect for our family too. The tram service they offer for the community was great and easy to access. The only thing I would say about the beach is to go early to claim your spot because there are "private property" beaches on both sides of the Seacrest beach.
