Perfect location

This beach cabin was very clean and in a great location. It was easy access to beach and the big store and restaurants. The gate made us feel very secure and safe. It was the perfect vacation for our family of 12!

Beautiful House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful, new, clean. The beds were comfy. All normal kitchenware was there. Bring your own tp and paper towels. The house has a beautiful view of the gulf but there are 2 empty lots in front of it and a large sand dune so you cannot see your family actually on the beach or communicate with them. There is an ordinance that you cannot walk on those sand dunes or you will be fined, so to get to the beach you walk about a block down the road and then just 100 feet or so. It isn't all that far unless you are dragging a lot of kids and stuff, haha. The good thing is that you can drive on the beach so we took 2 cars down there every day loaded with our canopies and ice chests etc, and drove back and forth to the house for the stuff we forgot or bathroom trips. Next trip I would rent a golf cart or two instead just because they would be easier to navigate on the sand. Me, myself and I were the only people in our group who kept getting our vehicle stuck in the sand, haha. Anyway that is the only thing I would want a renter to know and it in no way would keep us from renting this beautiful house again.

Fun Family Stay!

Blissful by the Sea was perfect for a family getaway with our teenagers, their friends and our dogs. The layout was comfortable with a large living space and deck as well as a gameroom for the teenage boys to escape to their video games when they’d had enough of the beach. Proximity to the beach was perfect and an easy walk. The beach can get busy during the day, so the dunes setting us back a little from the beach provided a buffer which was nice. Sitting on the deck was very peaceful and enjoyable. We also really appreciated a dog friendly rental, as did our dogs! The kitchen was well appointed and we wanted for nothing when preparing and serving meals to our crowd. We have to give kudos to the property management team who brought us a grill when the one at the house was locked up in the garage area. The only thing we would recommend changing is that when the linen service is added that the beds are also made for the house guests arrival. Once we arrived, we were ready to relax and start our vacation, not have to make beds. All things considered, we would definitely rent this home again!

A plus location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful, peaceful home instills bliss upon entry. Tastefully decorated, comfortable with extra amenities such as cozy blankets and plentiful games for the family and kids. The owner is generous. Nice deck, great views, a short walk to the beach. Secluded in a gated cul de sac adding an extra measure of security. This is a beautiful home and you will be rested when you leave.
