Easy beach access, dog-friendly island home with private hot tub & shared pool

Stay was great from check I, response of property management, availability of beach items, linens, towels and kitchen items. Having a hot tub available was great but had a lot of sand in there before our usage and ended up buying a hot tub vacuum to clean. Overall, best and quiet neighborhood and close to beach access. A team even came by to roll out the trash can before we had the opportunity to do it ourselves. Fantastic stay, definitely would love to use the same home again for a vacation. Boys had a great time crabbing for dinner and got to go on nice Long Beach walks myself with the hubby.

Great home with tons of beach toys, chairs, etc. Make sure to bring all essentials for cooking if you plan on eating in. There are no supplies for cooking, but the best options for pots, pans, utensils, coffee makers, etc. I have seen in a vacation rental. Great spot to relax on the upstairs screened porch or the bottom outdoor sitting area with a hammock and hot tub! Close to the pool and boardwalk to the beach. Great places to eat and just unwind!

We LOVED easy proximity to private neighborhood beach and pool! Plus we spent a TON of time on the comfy screened porch.

We had a wonderful week at Bella by the Sea....a MUCH needed vacation! The house was absolutely gorgeous!! We enjoyed it all...the hot tub, the beach chairs, the bikes. Bella had so many things that you don't know you need. Thank you for a GREAT week!!! The Collins Family

Great place to stay for a quite and peaceful time.

The house was perfect. It was clean, had everything we needed, and then some. walk to the beach, great location. We had a great time. It was like being at home but also like a resort. Very peaceful and relaxing. Loved the private hot tub at night.

Quiet, clean with plenty of amenities. A great place for a family and the the hot tub was awesome.

Our evaluation of the property is good but what is important to us may not be to you. The house is in good shape, was clean and well stocked with amenities. Everything from a good washer and dryer to plenty of useful items in the kitchen. The internet was not working when we got there which didn't let us watch TV either. They were responsive and fixed it within 24 hours.. The TV in the master bedroom had not been set up and did not have a proper remote to control it (not a battery issue). The TV in the bedroom is nothing to complain about, just an FYI. The house had bikes, beach chairs, hot tub, etc and everything was in good condition. Pretty much as advertised. The house is in a gated neighborhood which is nice so even is all the houses are full, the population density of the area is still low. This was very nice. Our issue is that the beach is about 1/4 of a mile away. This was made tougher by the fact that the ramp path to the beach was under repair and we had to drag our stuff through the grass. The beach was great and not commercialized. It was the to and from the beach that was our only complaint. If you have small children, the furniture in the place like the couch and indoor dining chairs have light colored cloth coverings so keep control of the snacks and drinks. We would like to come back sometime when our kids are older and are able to help take things to the beach. The big issue for us was having distant access to the beach with small kids.
