The home is beautiful and great for families!

We've stayed with seabreeze for the last 2 years and they have been great! The home is beautiful and great for families. Everything was very clean. The golf cart was great to have as well! Seabreeze was very responsive throughout our stay and we will continue booking through them!
Response from VrboOwner on 14 May 2026
Mary, SeaBreeze Vacation is pleased that you had a great stay and enjoyed the free golf cart we offer at some of our properties. That makes zipping around the island more fun and a memorable experience. We can't wait to host you again - be sure to contact us when planning your next stay!

Amazing Service!

What a beautiful vacation once again! This is our 5th year at Portside Paradise. The owner and SeaBreeze have kept this property in amazing condition over the years, even just having a deep cleaning of their floors pre this visit. The layout fits our family perfectly. We love the pool with the mixture of shade and sun, the artificial turf and mini golf course, etc. We love everything SeaBreeze does to ensure our stay is the best it could be, addressing any issues immediately, and with every employee showing extreme consideration and kindness. We switched rental companies in the area 5 years ago to SeaBreeze and don't plan on ever changing again! We have loved our experiences with them and our 2026 vacation was remarkably memorable! Lord willing, we will visit again next year! Thank you, SeaBreeze Team!

Perfect vacation rental!

This was the perfect house for our family. We loved that each bedroom had the king size bed and our bathroom. The kids loved the “kids room”. The house had the perfect layout. Kitchen was well stocked with amenities. Great location, close walking distance to the beach!

Overall a great property that I recommend.

Spent a week here with my extended family, including two older kids and an infant. SeaBreeze was very accommodating, coordinating baby items and groceries waiting for us when we arrived. Just a short walk to the beach for many mornings looking for shells, building castles, or enjoying the surf. Pool was a nice escape and way to get out of the sun in the afternoon. Overall great property with space for everyone! Would highly recommend.

Spacious Home with Private Pool

This house was absolute perfection for the 6 of us and we could have comfortably had more people because there were plenty of beds and batbrooms. Pool was private and beautiful and steps away from the beach access. Plenty of pool and beach toys were available in the garage as well. The golf cart wasn't

Our Portside Paradise stay could not have been any better!

Our Portside Paradise stay could not have been any better! We have stayed there now multiple years and every time we are amazed at how the owners and/or Seabreeze keep the house looking beautiful! Over the years we've been staying there we've seen them update the sofa, turf, the golf cart, the washer and dryer, add putt putt, a new fridge this year as well as new floats, boogie boards and beach chairs! They keep things pristine and as many homes would digress over the years of renters, this home continues to impress! We love it so much and SeaBreeze is a pleasure to work with! So easy to contact, on top of things, considerate & kind! This vacation made for some priceless memories!

A Beachside Retreat

The property was in a phenomenal location -one block to the beach and easy to walk to which was the highlight.Unfortunately, the weather was not fantastic during our two week stay so we did utilize the home quite a bit more than we usually would.There were many issues that arose throughout the two weeks, but the Seabreeze management was very responsive to our needs. Kitchen could be better stocked and hot tub at a higher temp.Overall I would recommend the property due mostly to the location.

Amazing Getaway

Portside Paradise is a phenomenal home to vacation in! We love the beautiful poolside where they just added a new mini golf hole the kids loved! The trip to the beach is a short walk & 6 of our party enjoyed fun golf cart rides to & from! There were some problems while we were there. It was disappointing because not all were able to be fixed during our stay, however SeaBreeze did send out maintenance to try. The kitchen, beds, bathrooms & view all equaled an amazing getaway we won't forget! :)

Thanksgiving Family Trip

The best part of this house is the location. You are very close to everything. House looks a little nicer in pictures than what we experienced. In our opinion, house needs a complete deep clean. We read previous reviews and made sure to completely inspect house prior to our week getting started. I am glad we did - because all of the items I contacted the management about they were unaware of. Also, we had three cars and it was a little tight for us to fit. The other main problem is the parking police. If you do not have your car parked the correct way in your driveway - you will be ticketed $75. It's really ridiculous as they drive by everyday to try and make money. The house is nice and we enjoyed our stay. Looking forward to next year.

We hope to book again soon!

We've been vacationing on AMI for 10 years & this was our first time booking through SeaBreeze. We were very pleased & Portside Paradise was beautiful! We loved the floors, layout, cleanliness, decor & amenities! Any issue we did have, SeaBreeze staff was sincere in their desire to do what they could to make sure it was addressed to ensure an excellent stay! The maintenance men were considerate too! We also greatly appreciated the paper products & soap provided! We hope to book again soon!! :-)

Nice stay

Our group stayed here for two weeks and enjoyed our time. Short walk to beach access and we really enjoyed the pool. The hot tub never got warm so that was a bit of a disappointment. The house could use a good cleaning (fans, light fixtures, mold in washing machine, etc) and the kitchen was not well equipped (we had to go to the store to buy a can opener and oven mits). Having the kids loft area was great! All adults enjoyed their bedrooms with connected bathrooms. We were happy the house had some beach chairs, pool floats, etc.

Poorly Maintained

Although this is a lovely property, it is poorly maintained. The location, pool, and house (particularly the individual bathrooms) were beautiful. However, the dirt, wear and tear, and lack of upkeep were disappointing. I will try to attach photos of the dilapidated beach chairs, dirty fixtures, broken television, a giant crack in the sliding glass door, an extremely moldy washing machine, and the missing bedroom door handle. We were a group of adults celebrating my mother's 80th birthday. This was not the luxurious vacation we had planned. Note: The workers from Seabreeze were friendly and did their best to "fix" things, but these issues should have been taken care of before our stay. Who wants to spend their vacation with almost daily calls and meetings with maintenance?

A relaxing and enjoyable vacation

Perfect layout for 4 couples/3families. Feels larger than most 4bedrms w/extra baths & 4 twin beds are really helpful. House was spotless. Plenty of bath towels & beach towels. Beach chairs, 2 umbrellas, 6 bikes and beach cart were super useful. Rent a golf cart!

Great Pool

The pool and hot tub were wonderful. However, the kitchen was not well-equipped given the cost of the house and the furniture throughout was not adequate. You could not watch television comfortably in the Great Room and the bedrooms did not contain any dressers. One 'bedroom' did not even contain a closet to store luggage and clothes.
