We had a great stay! The house was very clean, well-maintained, and stocked with everything we could possibly need. It was clear the owners put a lot of thought into making guests feel comfortable. The golf cart was a huge bonus and made getting around so easy and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a relaxing, hassle-free stay at the beach.

Perfect place to stay if you have a dog. House has a privacy fenced back yard. My dog is older so it was nice not to have to climb stairs in or out of the house. We enjoyed using the golf cart. The golf cart has a resident ID so you can park for free. Would stay here again.

Quiet cozy home on a peaceful street. It was beautifully decorated, every room was perfect. The furnishings were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We appreciated the clear check-in instructions and a guide to where to find the beach towels, chairs, and toys. All very helpful. The golf cart was an added plus! We enjoyed every minute of our stay. And the host was very responsive and quick when we had questions.

The house felt open and airy the minute you walked in. The layout of the bedrooms is fantastic for families. The house is very clean and has all the necessities you could need and more. It’s amazing for pets with a fenced in yard and clean up bags provided. The hot tub is great. The use of the golf cart is the icing on the cake. The Host is a great communicator and I appreciate her quick response time!
