Beachfront Retreat with Stunning Views & Natural Dune Path to the Beach!

We’ve stayed at a lot of rental houses and this was by far the worst. The house had a strange odor to start with. The showers had used soap in them. Paint chipping off walls & ceilings. The walls were warped from moisture. Broken blinds and internal doors in every room. The bed spreads & furniture was very outdated. Towels had stains on them. Moist carpets. The main door had a decent size gap under it which let in bugs. We killed a few roaches actually. No screens on any doors or windows so we weren’t able to enjoy the lovely ocean breeze. The owners keep the thermostat locked at 72 which we found to be very warm to sleep in. The decks had large nails sticking out from many boards and I cut my foot pretty badly on one. No lounge chairs to sit on. The corn hole game board was broken. The pathway to the beach was under knee deep water with slippery pallets underneath which a member of our group slipped and fell on. We awoke our last morning to rain splattering all over the dining room floor from the roof leaking. There is a large list of rules to follow posted throughout the house, none of which were communicated beforehand. We kept our comments to ourselves for the most part as we wanted to try and make the best of our trip. The two times we did communicate with the owner, she was unfriendly and had zero interest in how our stay was going. The pictures of the house are taken in a way as to not show damage. This house should not be rented until many repairs are made.

Great beach views right on the ocean. Nice and secluded little spot. Perfect for what we needed for a quick getaway as a family. Extra bonus that we could take our two small dogs who loved the beach experience. Communication with the host was stellar. We would for sure stay again.

We had a great stay at this beach house! The host was wonderful to work with and made the entire process easy and enjoyable. The beach was absolutely beautiful, relaxing, and not overcrowded, which made for a perfect getaway. We would definitely stay here again!

A new cleaning crew is needed! We walked in the house and I immediately found a large dead roach, a dead wasp and a live wasp! Thanks for the can of Raid bug killer left on the book case. The ceramic tiles in the first floor bathroom were pulling away from the walls, mildew was on the grout and wicking air freshener was no longer fragrant and the wicks were mildewed. Someone please wash the bathroom floor mat. Towels looked well worn, too, so maybe new towels would help. The red couch in the first floor living area had seat cushions that are so flat they offer no support. It made it difficult to get up because I sunk so far down and back. I learned to sit only in the newer red floral chairs. A coffee table would have been helpful to provide a place to put down a drink. The clock on the mantle didn’t work. The wall panels were separating making the room look like it was cheaply put up. Kind of depressing overall. The bed in the bedroom next to the bathroom wasn’t very comfortable and the door bumped into the bed. The whole house looked uncared for and the head clearance on entering the house was way too low for anyone over 5’10”. Even with the write up’s warning one had to be vigilant not to hit the head. On the PLUS side were the beautiful views from the balconies. In fact it’s the only reason we didn’t leave after the first night. Overall this house might be a good fit for a group of fishermen who only need a place to drink beers on the balcony sleep.

Hosts were great, house in great shape, loved dune walk to beach had been mowed cleaned.

My wife was really doubtfull of recent trip here. Will never go back to port a. We had so much fun going out at 6, sip on our coffee, watch the sunrise a little after 7, take a short stroll thru the dunes and walk the beach. It was suprising to see more than 1 or 2 folks on the beach, yes its early, but no one all day, Fantastic and special place, tks for all. Mnl

We had a really good time.. great house

We have stayed at this property 4x over the last 10 years and have found it clean, comfortable and with great views of and easy access to the beach. The futon floor has a somewhat musty smell, and there were a couple of items missing we needed on this visit (trash bags and soap). Other than that, another great year and we plan to be back again next year.

Nice property. Very clean and well maintained. We particularly enjoyed the Great Horned Owl mother and owlets nesting in the trunk of a palm tree just a few yards from the deck.

Overall our stay was great. House was very clean and organized, there were toys and movies to play for our 2 grandkids. Only thing I would say that I wasn’t 100% with was the actual walking distance from the beach.It seemed allot shorter wall in the pics and the actual path about halfway down it had a makeshift bridge made with pallets thru the soggy ground. It was a bit slippery and we weren’t a be to our beach wagon over it, so we have to load everything up in our vehicle and drive around to the beach. But other than that it was a great place to stay with very reasonable price compared to the surrounding rentals and pet friendly.

It was a chill place nearby nothing but a gorgeous beach. Warning: you have to have a four wheel drive vehicle or garden galoshes to get the beach. The house was in good shape for being older. It sleeps a lot of people.
