⚠️ Important Payment Notice – Klarna / Affirm
Please note that reservations paid using Klarna, Affirm, or similar “buy now, pay later” virtual cards may decline during processing. There are two separate transactions for each reservation (one for VRBO service fees and one for the rental payment through SPI Rentals). Many virtual one-time card providers only authorize a single transaction, which causes the payment to fail.

Great houses for reunions
We rented 113A and 113B for a family reunion. Both houses are great! Having the gate open between the two houses was wonderful. The amount of bedrooms and bathrooms was great for 8 families. The beach is a close walk and when not there the pools kept all ages entertained! We will be back!

Great house close to the beach
The house was great, the layout is good, it could use a few more cooking things such as cookie sheets and pizza pan, the pots and pans are really well used. I think the swimming pool could use a little more maintenance, when you have a large group using a small pool like this one the water gets pretty yucky looking real fast! Overall we had a good stay and lots of memories made at SPI
We were very impressed with this property. The layout is superb with two bedrooms with bunkbeds on the first floors and four bedrooms with king sized beds and individual restrooms. The heated pool and jacuzzi were a treat as the weather was a little chilly during our stay. The kitchen area, dining room, and living room are very open and conducive for family games, dining and fellowship. Each tv is setup with Netflix, AppleTV, YouTube, etc. The location is ideal and very close to the beach. We will definitely stay be staying here again!

We can't wait to see you back at the beach again next time! Best regards, Ashleigh T., General Manger - SPI Rentals
The property is great but the pool was a little dirty and it got taken care of the same day which was great.
The jacuzzi did not work which was a little disappointing. My family and I will definitely return to this place

Response from VrboOwner on 7 Aug 2023
Hi Antonio, thank you for taking time to leave us a review. We apologize again for the maintenance issue that you encountered with the jacuzzi during your stay. Unfortunately, a part on the pool/jacuzzi heater went out and one needed to be ordered to make the repairs. We regret that the part did not get to us prior to your departure, but we hope you understand that this was out of our control. Since then, the part was replaced and the jacuzzi was fully restored to its working order. Thank you for being so understanding and working with us so that we could get this issue addressed. We hope that you will come back and stay with us again next time. Best regards, Ashleigh T., General Manager - SPI Rentals

Great house! Great customer service!
I had reserved a house and based on recent reviews the house needed some TLC/upgrades/repairs
I mentioned if the issues could get resolved before my trip and SPI called me and said they couldn't guarantee they would be done as they don't own the house so they offered a better/newer/nicer home!! And this house everything we wanted/needed!!
Thank you SPI Rentals.

Hi Bryce, It is always amazing to hear that we’ve been successful in our goal of providing guests with the best possible experience. Thank you for giving us the chance to serve you. Regards, Marina L., Sales Manager- SPI Rentals team
The house is gorgeous and held 10 adults, 3 1 year olds and 1 4 yewr old w ease. The pool and hot tub were so nice and it was an easy walk to the beach. We cooked dinner and breakfast everyday and the kitchen had all the utensils. The only thing that would of been nice would of been to have some simple spices and coffee. Also know there are limited trash bags and laundry soap provided if you have a big crowd, which is expected. We will absolutely rent again!!! Thanks for letting us enjoy the house.

We appreciate your suggestions about spices and coffee, as its helped us improve for future stays. We're so happy you had a great time and look forward to welcoming you back!
Best regards,

This property was absolutely beautiful. We traveled with our entire family…3 couples, 2 toddlers, auntie, uncle and great grandpa…to spend Easter at the beach. There was more than enough comfortable space for everyone. The pool was wonderful for family fun and everybody had their own space to retreat to for a little personal time. The beach is close by and easily accessed. The only disappointment was the renters in the other two units had loud parties starting in the late afternoon and going late into the morning hours. We loved the property but this wasn’t the quite get away we had hoped for.

Love SPI
Half bath needs toilet paper roll or table for toilet paper.
Smelled a sewer smell throughout upstairs one day, but NW room always had a sewer smell in shower. Spi maintenance left Clorox to use but didn't help.
Fitted sheets won't stay on beds.
Driveway is the narrowest of the 3 units but “sleeps the most - it needs more parking space.
A Mirror in walk in the bedrooms or closet would be nice.
Front hose leaks badly sprays from faucet, needs a different hose and a repair.
Wobbly and near breaking dinner table chair
Pool filter never filtered bugs on top. One jet broken. Sand on the bottom never vacuumed. It didn't seem to work like the other units. It didn't stay as clean.

Loved everything about this place. The rooms as well as the dinning and living room is very spacious. you can view the whole pool area from the dinning table and the living room sofa. It is very much clean I especially loved the balconies sitting areas and how it connects to the room next door in the back end and front. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a place to stay. The walk to the beach is very close we were able to crab hunt twice in a row and walked to the beach all days we were there. It is also super easy to stay and extra day if you decide to. The people at SpI rentals are very helpful. Thank you once again and Thank you To Marina for helping me retrieve my belonging once we had departed 30 mims later with out any problems.
