We had a family beach week with 9 adults and 1 toddler. The house was amazing! It comfortably fit all 10 of us. Along with being dog friendly, which made it even more fun for us to include our furry one.Amy is a great host by providing all of the beach gear you need between shibumis, beach chairs, beach wagons, and tents as well. Typically I bring my own shibumi beach cart, but it wasn't event needed, which was great.The house is located close to the park & pickleball courts. Along with being super close to Publix & coffee shops. It made it very easy to get around. While the house is just a view steps from the beach. My family and I already want to stay here again next summer. Highly recommend this house

Our vacation was awesome! The host has everything you can think of or possibly need. You can tell that they think of this as an experience for families not just a rental property. The kitchen has everything you need, there are toys for the kids, everything you could need for the Beach or pool. The beds are super comfortable. The views from the deck are amazing and there is a park right across the street for kids to play or Ride Scooters or bikes. There are four refrigerators so you never run out of space even with a large family. Any questions I had were addressed immediately. The only downside, if you want to call it that, is the access between levels is outside unless you're using the elevator.

Great house and owners

What a great house and location! The owners were helpful and provided everything you could want. It has a beautiful beach view in front and a park with ball field, playground, and splash pad for the kids. Although there are two kitchens, our group of thirteen only used the one on the top floor. Would highly recommended this property.

Perfect house and location for 16 family members

We are three generations ranging in age from 5 to 77. We especially enjoyed the beach house decks and the proximity to the beach. There was more than enough room to spread out yet be together for fun times and conversation. Also, the grandchildren loved the elevator.

Perfect home for making memories!

This property was PERFECTLY equipped for making memories; it had everything that we needed to accommodate our children and grandchildren. The location was perfect (across the street from a beach access and a lovely public park directly behind with a mini water park for the little kids). The amenities on the property were great (fully equipped kitchen, grill, games, beach equipment, bicycles, etc.). And the host was easily accessible and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this property.
