Such a beautiful location! The beach was covered in shells—I’ve never seen so many in my life! Everyone we met, from the taxi driver to the ferry crew, was kind and helpful. Our house hosts, Bob and Wendy, were especially helpful and made us feel welcome. A wonderful place to relax and make memories!

Amazing stay with family and friends. The home has unbelievable views and beach access right on the ocean with sunsets every night right off the deck. Our hosts were gracious with their time when we had questions and kept in contact to make sure everything was going smoothly. We are planning on returning next year with a bigger crew! Kudos to Stephanie, Bob and Wendy for helping us have a great vacation!

This house was absolutely perfect for our family vacation. The oceanfront setting offered the most fabulous view — truly breathtaking and something we never got tired of. The home itself was thoughtfully set up, comfortable, and ideal for spending quality time together. The location made it easy to enjoy island activities, and everything we wanted to do was close by. It was the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would absolutely return.

We had a terrific time - both the house and the host exceeded expectations. This house is right on the beach -looking out the many windows you might think you’re on a boat as all you see is water. Beautiful spot for sunsets. Wendy and Bob were accommodating and helpful both before and during our stay. Hope to go back one day!

Best Island Getaway

We had a very big group for a week and this home was perfect. Location couldn’t have been any better and everyone was extremely helpful. Not only was the house/owner great everyone on the island were great too. It was windy while we stayed so we spent a lot of time at the pool. The pool area was just as beautiful. We loved it so much and hope to go back.

Thank you for your 10 out of 10 review! We agree, this location couldn't get any better. The views of the ocean are outstanding! We took your suggestion for a 2nd vacuum on the upper floor for any sand that gets tracked in and also your other recommendation of an updated shower head in the upper level bathroom. Thank you! We always appreciate our guest's suggestions and use them to improve! We are so happy that you will be returning to stay with us again!

Best location on the island.

Perfect beachfront spot, twenty-five feet from the water. We saw dolphins and tarpon right in front of the house. Each night we watched the most beautiful sunsets and fell asleep to the waves. Absolutely incredible.

Great week at Big!

A true beach house… Nothing fancy but all the essentials and then some. A great 6 bdr layout for large families. Best location on the island! The only downside is their 8 AM check out, but we requested a later time and they happily accommodated us. Fantastic week!

Big on the Beach = Big Family Fun

Our family of 16 had fun from sunrise to sunset. From playing in the ocean to fun in the pool to hiking and collecting seashells to seeing manatees and watching the dolphins swim by. It was everything we hoped for and more . A little bit of paradise!

Literally on the beach

Great family vacation suitable for all ages. The house is a few steps to the beach which is very convenient to comeback whenever you need it (with kids and babies that’s a big plus). It is big enough with many rooms and bathrooms that people can do different activities without bothering each other ( work, play , breastfeeding, etc.) and also have communal areas on the top floor to share time cooking or eating all together. Great family vacation!

This house and location are absolutely amazing! The home was recently remodeled over the past year and it showed! We were 2 families totaling 12. We were able to spend time together and enjoy island life! We loved that the beach was just steps in front of the house and we also enjoyed the pools at the island club that was just a short golf cart ride away. The house was very clean and we loved the caretakers of this home, they were very helpful and attentive and made getting to the house and the island very easy. We highly recommend and plan to return next year!

Amazing Location!

We had an amazing week at Big on the Beach! The location is spectacular with panoramic ocean views. The sunsets were incredible. The house was very clean, and the caretakers were incredibly helpful leading up to our arrival. We were a group of 13, with adults and seven children under10. We all fit comfortably in the house. We would definitely stay at Big on the Beach again!
