The house was really nice and clean. It's a great location near the beach – not too bad of a walk, but perfect if you rent a golf cart. We loved the pool. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We loved that it was pet-friendly. All the beds were comfy. Excellent master suite upstairs. I would have given this property five stars, but there were a few issues. There is no way to bring an ice chest or items to the back yard pool area without walking up the tall stairs into the house and back down the stairs to the back yard. There is a gate to the back yard, but it was locked. This was very inconvenient. In addition, the TV in the back yard did not work. Nor did the dishwasher in the kitchen. I informed the property manager about these issues. They generously offered to send over a tech to fix the dishwasher, but we declined and managed to wash our dishes by hand. If the TV and dishwasher worked, and if there was a way to get into the back yard without going through the house, I would have rated it 5/5. Although we had a few issues, the property manager – New Wave Vacation Rentals – was great to work with. The responded immediately to our concerns. I would not hesitate renting from them again.

Lay out of the house was very nice every family member was comfortable including myself

The home itself was thoughtfully decorated and put together, clean, and freshly painted inside and out. You can tell that the owners have put a lot of care into the home. A/C unit worked perfectly and the kitchen/living area made for a great gathering place. Proximity to the boardwalk and beach was a huge plus. Outside seating had a ton of great options and the poolside fridge and bar area was a nice touch. Only real knock was the trash and recycling was completely full when we arrived, the pool was supposed to be heated but when we arrived were told it was broken and in need of a part, and lastly all of the different grills were in desperate need of being replaced. Thankfully the oven inside was high quality and we were able to cook everything we planned to grill, inside.

Upon arrival the house was very clean. Everything described is as is. Really appreciated the great TVs, books, toys, pool toys, and beach. The pool was definitely the highlight. It was bigger than expected and everyone enjoyed all the time spent. Area outside was outstanding with TV, bar and fridge. All pits were clean and available for use. The firepit area is a little small but cozy. The only down we experienced is that we were not aware we could not access the backyard/pool from the ground level outside of fence so we had to carry all heavy ice chest and other items up stairs through front door and then through the house and down the stairs to pool area. We enjoyed every day at this house and would love to rent again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House location is great! Golf cart delivery and pick up from house was so convenient. I do feel like for the price charged, the house could have been cleaned better prior to arrival. The house is in need of some repairs but to be expected from a popular rental. Overall my family had a great time and the staff at New Wave Vacation is great!! We will be back!

Two thumbs up! Fantastic place to stay with family and pets. Only cleanliness issues where from the previous persons stay. I.e. the trash wasn't removed from the property and some dog poop remained in the yard.

The house was located perfect and it was very nice, clean and had everything we needed. The fenced in back yard and pool area was perfect. We plan to book this place again as it was very enjoyable.

Cute place with plenty of extras for our stay. The pool area had games and toys for everyone. Outside area was really nice with plenty of BBQ options and a fire pit. The lights on the outdoor area was a nice addition for late night shenanigans. The house was nicely decorated, with plenty of standard amenities. Kitchen was decent for cooking and serving. We did have some issues throughout the stay and messaging through VRBO never got us any answers. The insinkerator didnt work which left us with a nasty kitchen sink. We worked it out. The house was not clean...dog hair on the comforters, terribly dusty fans throughout and the house was smelly. When we first came in there was a big gob of hair on the kitchen counter and jelly all over the toaster. The outdoor shower was broken and the stovetop was cracked so we were nervous to use it. There was broken glass in the bar area. The 1st full day, lawn care team came in the fence and mowed while we were relaxing at the pool. Spraying poison/weed killer while kids were playing in the yard area...that was really aggravating. I tried reaching out several times but never got an answer. Really wanted to love this place...

We had a 4 day staycation at SS Minnow and the property was great! We really enjoyed the outdoor spaces and the location! Just far enough from the crowds in Port A, but close enough to get to the restaurants in just a few minutes. My family from out of town rented the property right next to us and it couldn’t have worked out more better. We all enjoyed our stay and had the best time !

This house has everything! Swimming pool, games, grills, bar, tv’s. My new home away from home! We walked our dogs to the beach which was amazing! I couldn’t have asked for anything more than I got out of this rental from New Wave!
