Family Memories

The house and location were wonderful. The listing was accurate. Decorations were upscale and not the usual over the top beach theme.

Great stay

House was great and close to the beach, maybe 2 block walk to private beach which was nice with less people. House was clean, cozy, and comfortable. Beds slept great. Would stay again. Only minor complaints would be no access to 3rd story patio, alot of mosquitoes with the nice shaded trees, and bathrooms had pocket doors that didnt really lock and no privacy to master bathroom which all is ok if you just have one person or a couple to a room but if you have other people it might bother you. Again, those are minor, house was great overall, makes you want to retire and live the beach life.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the home and especially loved the easy walk to the quieter private beach — definitely one of our favorite perks too! 🏖️ Glad to know the house felt cozy, clean, and comfy, and that those beds helped you catch some serious vacation Zzzs. 😴🌙 We appreciate the feedback on the patio access and pocket doors — definitely noted! While the home was designed with relaxed beach vibes in mind, we totally get how extra privacy can be helpful with a group. And ugh, mosquitoes — they do love that shade! We’re always looking for ways to improve, so this kind of insight really helps us. We’d love to host you again anytime you're ready to chase that beach-life dream! 🌊☀️ — The Gulf Tide Vacations Team

Great House and Beach Access

My family and I really enjoyed the house and especially the private beach access. Walk to the beach was super close and we saved money on cancelling our La Dove Vida reservation for our chairs and umbrellas and just used the local provider. If you have your own beach chairs and umbrellas, the private beach access is the way to go. The beach house was meticulous and such a cozy beach house that was extremely relaxing, the only issue that hindered our experience was the top balcony access was locked per the beach house owners instructions. Our intent was to use that top balcony to view the 4th of July fireworks, so that was a letdown, but the overall experience was great!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you and your family enjoyed the home and especially made the most of that convenient private beach access—it really does make a difference! Great tip about bringing your own chairs and umbrellas too. 🌴 We totally understand your disappointment about the top balcony. It is currently locked for safety reasons, as the third-floor area is often used by guests with children under 15. While we know it would’ve been a great spot to catch fireworks, we appreciate your understanding. We’ll be sure to share your feedback with the homeowner. We're so glad the rest of your stay was relaxing and that the home gave you a cozy, beachy escape. We’d love to have you back again soon! ☀️🏖️ —Gulf Tide Vacations Team

Great house and location - management team is poor

We have stayed on this street for over a decade and have stayed in this house 3 times. This past summer was the first year with this property management team. The house is perfect and the location and beach are great. The property management communicated well about the check in/out process. When we checked in on Saturday, we noticed that the bed in the loft was broken. We filled out the “fix form” and we never heard from them in regards to our concerns. I filled out a review and sent it to the management team and I still have not heard from them. Very disappointing. Will be very hesitant to rent from the management team again.

Hi Michael, Thanks for your review and for sharing your experience. We are glad to hear the home was perfect and location was great. We are sad to hear we fell short on communication on an issue with the sofa bed not functioning. On Monday July 24th we sent a text with regards to the sofa bed which stated we had ordered a part to repair it and were waiting for it to arrive. We sent this around 11:15am. We do follow up with post stay surveys completed as well, usually within a week from check out. We try to communicate as much as possible without being overbearing and intrusive on your stay. We do hope that you will stay with us again. All the best, Gulf Tide Vacations
