We had a great stay! The property manager was very easy to get ahold of and the house was wonderful. The pool seemed to be a little chilly so we called and they had maintenance there right away to check the temperature and they turned it up without hesitation. The beach was a short walk anround the corner with the most beautiful sunsets. Overall would definitely recommend!

I am extremely pleased with the accommodations, the place was perfectly suited for privacy, beach access and overall comfort. The staff went over and above to help us with access due to our less than competent internet skills. The staff handle things cheerfully and professionally. Will definitely visit again.

Superb property. Superb location. Floors were generally a bit sandy - which is to be expected, given the proximity to the beach. We weren't happy with the state the previous tenant had left the pool in, but it was quickly actioned by the hosts. All in all, a cracking option within a stone's throw of one of the world's finest beaches.

Loved the house and the heated pool. Short walk to the beach was perfect. Wonderful restaurants and shopping nearby. We loved the use of the beach chairs and starter kit of supplies since we flew in from out of state and couldn’t bring all of things with us. Beautiful place and we will definitely be back again.

Fabulous location for laid back vacation

Perfect for the vacation we had planned, laid back and relaxed. House close to Beane Point Beach, Rod and Reel, Sandbar restaurant and several shops can be walked to. House could use just a bit of paint and small maintenance. We loved the screened in porch, spent more time there when we were home than in the house.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 June 2021
Amy, thank you for letting us know about your stay at Tree Top Bungalow. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay with us and agree that the screened porch is an ideal place to spend your time. Painting at many of our homes has been difficult to schedule as our usual "down time" didn't happen this year due to the large number of folks who are looking to get away to make up for missed vacations last year. Please know that this is on our "to do" list. We hope that we are able to welcome you back in the near future.
