Stayed Sep 12, 2025Location was great, house clean, communication with VRBO & Real estate company was very good. Saw fish, manatees, turtles, all kinds of birds, & devil ray fly out of the water-AWESOME! Water was emerald green, clear and refreshing. However, 4 stars given due to: kitchen needs a 13 gallon garbage can & cabinets/shelving for food! No dressers in 2 of the rooms to store clothes. No throw rugs or runners provided inside at doors or beds to catch the sand on feet. Only a broom which does NOT clean up sand. May consider a light weight vacuum available to guests. May also consider yellow turtle lights for outside, we rescued a baby turtle in path going toward house lights rather than the towards moon/gulf. Upstairs in closed porch/living room needs curtains: extremely hot & glare when afternoon sun comes in.

Stayed Jul 5, 2025This was our 2nd booking for this home. Obviously we keep coming back for a reason. The location on the island and to the beach can’t be beat. However the property itself is somewhat under whelming not in function but aesthetically and with cleanliness. Inside the floors were filthy, and the table surfaces I’m positive weren’t cleaned in a while. I specifically inquired about rugs upon booking. I was told there were rugs. There are all tile floors and still no rugs at either door in which to clean the sand from one’s feet. The remnant piece at the outside back door did nothing. I’m sure I sound like I’m picking it apart, but I’m not . It is a great location and home. I just think a little updating of furniture and decor and thought put into basics would go along way. Definitely do it a third time I’m sure ..

Stayed Mar 22, 2025The house is spacious and great location. Short walk on the path behind house right onto beach. It isn’t a crowded area of beach either. This area is just houses and no resorts or hotels. Beach is beautiful white sand and very clean! The kitchen had all needed appliances and cookware and glasses and plates. No staples such as salt or spices or anything like that though. The deck on upper level has a little view of beach and table and chairs. It was great to sit outside early and look at ocean and eat breakfast! It didn’t have the comfy lounger shown in picture though. There’s a grill for cooking outside also and wagon with four beach chairs which was great! (Although my boys did complain that the wagon didn’t pull well at all on the sand :)) Beds were comfortable and great couches with large tv on both levels. We really enjoyed our stay!

Stayed Sep 8, 2024Location was amazing. Photos need to be updated for property. Outside path to beach needs to cleaned up and made more walkable, over grown bushes blocking beach view was a little disappointing.

Stayed May 9, 2024You can’t beat the location with direct views and access to a quiet peaceful and beautiful beach. The house itself is a bit older but provides the basics for a family beach trip.
