It was pretty quiet loved being able.ro sit on thw porch and watch the cruisers fo by. Place was veey clean aa expected. The host was quick to reapond to any queations or needs that came up. Great place!!
We were able to stay one night for a family wedding. The home is very nice. The beds were extremely comfortable with great linens. The fireplace is a nice touch. The street noise is a little loud on the balcony but we still totally enjoyed sitting outside. The views from the living area and master are amazing. Highly recommend!
Wonderful place to stay. My wife and I went down with some friends for the July 4th celebration and had a great time. We were able to sit in the pouch and enjoy the show without having to drive.We are already planning our next trip.
House was very clean, had everything we needed and then some. Great location right across the street to the beach. Close to Walmart and lots of great restaurants if you drive a short distance to Gulfport. Owners were great at communication.
This place was so accommodating and we had a wonderful time! It definitely met all of our expectations and the gift basket was so very nice! We hope to come back soon!!Connie
The location was just as advertised, and we enjoyed a laid back several days beach front. Really enjoyed the accommodations and the family was able to have a relaxing couple of days. It was great to wake up and close out the day looking out to the gulf from our porch.
House was well furnished. Elevator was a plus. Beach decor was great and location was very convenient. Host left snacks and drinks for us that was much appreciated. House was very clean. Great home away from home!
