BIG HOUSE PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS!

Great place to stay, convenient to the beach Ang nice pools.

The place was great! Only issue was the parking but we really enjoyed our stay!

We have stayed in the Emerald Shores neighborhood for many years, and this was the first time in this home. Tucked away in the corner, the house was perfect for our needs. One issue with the HVAC on a Sunday night, and the Management Team was all over it within minutes. Great communication and superb location make this a great house for a vacation.

Great location & accommodations! Had a fantastic visit & plan to return next year!

The cottage is breathtaking! From the arrival through the checkin/checkout processes, all were above average. The only detractors from what otherwise would have been a 5-Star rating are the carpet and the grill gas tank was completely empty. I would be willing to pay a slightly more for gas for the grill. Everything else was very enjoyable. The short walk to the beach and the surrounding area was phenomenal!

Beautiful location, super clean property. It was very comfortable for 8 adults (including 4 senior citizens) and 2 children (3, 5). Easy to walk to the beach with the kids; the beach was fantastic. The kids appreciated the sand toys that were available at the house to take along, too. Well-equipped kitchen that made Thanksgiving food preparation much easier. There was plenty of parking available, and it was quiet and peaceful in the neighborhood during our stay. Very timely communication from property management when we had questions. It would have been helpful to have somewhat clearer directions for arriving at the back gate to the community instead of the front gate which was not accessible with code. We would stay here again without a doubt, really great!

The house was nice and large. It could have been cleaned a bit better prior to our arrival, but overall it was a great rental for our vacation. The company was very easy to work with and communicated easily!

We really liked this property. It has 5 bedrooms with sleeping arrangements that accommodated all 12 of us with age ranges from 13-74 boys and girls. The beds were comfortable. There is only one bedroom on the first floor which we gave to the older couple in our group. However, the bed was very high. They had to get a stool to get in especially with their age and physical issues. We would suggest putting a patio set in the back. We had to move the front chairs to sit in the shady back area while grilling. No furniture at all in the back. The AC worked awesome in this extreme heat. Surprisingly, the 2nd floor stayed very cool. We were not too pleased with the “private” beach. You are almost forced to book rentals to sit close to the water. You can’t set up to the left or right as that is also “private.” We like to use our own chairs and umbrellas. I just wish there weren’t so many rentals set up. We took advantage of the beach gear credit through VayK Gear. We rented two bikes and corn hole. We didn’t use all of our available credit and still had to pay the delivery fee. It was only $16 out of pocket for the delivery and taxes and the teens enjoyed it so it was worth it. All in all, the place is great and we have rented houses in Emerald Shores for over 30 years and plan to continue. We would rent this property again if needed.

We enjoyed our stay and liked the beach equipment deal. The worse part was the private beach where we couldn't even see the water. There were so many expensive beach rentals set up in front that we were stuck at the back. We only went once, then started driving to better beach areas. I also had an issue with reaching the number listed to report issues. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there.

This place was great for a crowd! Upstairs bathrooms designed for efficiency ! Showers are separate from toilets and sinks. Easy walk to beach. Quiet neighborhood, heated pool. Would definitely rent this place again. Management co was polite and helpful.
