We had an excellent stay. The host was easy to make contact with and responded promptly. The house was adorable and very pet friendly and the walk to the beach was short. We would definitely stay there again.

Nice vacation spot

The apartment was not as nicely furnished as we expected based on the cost, but the location, the pet friendly feature, and the enclosed garden more than compensated. We will definitely stay there on our next visit to this area.

Adorable bungalow, short walk to beach!

This place was perfect for my partner and I to get away from home for the weekend. Short walk to the beach, close to everything, peaceful neighborhood. Will totally return!

Perfect spot

My daughter and I spent a week together here. It was perfect for us. The place is clean and everything you should need was provided (household items.) The space is bigger than I expected, and we really enjoyed the color and quirkiness. My favorite spot was the yard…the beach is nice too of course, but the yard was fun. Parking was no problem at all. It was perfect for us.

Comfortable Bungalow like stay

The bungalow is in a great location-close to Publix, Cap's Restaurant, and the beach. It's decorated with a cozy simple style. We appreciated the peaceful setting and convenient access to local spots. A few things to note for future guests: the gas stove and oven do not ignite and most likely require manual ignition, which I did not attempt, so we were unable to cook as planned. The tap water has a strong sulfur odor, so I'd recommend purchasing bottled water to drink. The shower water also had a noticeable odor and laundry also leaves a lingering smell. Guests are expected to regularly empty the bedroom dehumidifier. That said, we enjoyed the area and overall charm of the space.

Don’t do it.

The place looked really cute online and it was great being walking distance from the beach. But there was ants everywhere inside. Don’t you dare leave a crum in the sink or anywhere for that matter because the house will be swarmed with ants. I have a dog and I put food in his bowl. By the time we were back that afternoon I had to pull my dog back from eating it because I realized he was eating a bowl of ants. I felt so bad for my doggie.the house was also not the cleanest and the shower soaks the whole bathroom everytime you use it. There was just so many things that we put up with that you should not have to! Getting into the gate every single day was a mess. It’s easy one second then complete hard to open the next. Absolutely terrible gate lock and annoying to try to get into. Lastly the washer and dryer are from the 1800s and can fit maybe one two towels which I’m not even sure it even washes. But highly would not recommend this place especially is you are looking for relaxing and comfortable. There is also an upstairs unit that you can hear stomping around every second they are there regardless of the time of day and their patio is right above yours so when they are moving around the dirt just falls straight over your head.

Complete dump

First off they don’t tell you you have to park in a Publix parking lot and carry your luggage across a major street then once you’re in its 2 rooms one with a bed other with stove in middle of room all cabinets look like they were picked up from dumpster and reinstalled and the bathroom well a porta John with a garden hose would be nicer and cleaner the outside was the nicest part so if you do stay take a tent !!!
