My family loved it there the place is beautiful.
the property was well equipped, especially the kitchen. Great location and beach access. The only downside was the number of bathrooms for the number of adults and the layout of the bathrooms vs bedrooms.
The owners of the house have given so much attention to the details. The kitchen was organized and very well supplied with all the dishes, pots and pans you will need. The sofas were large and comfortable. The basket of throw blankets made us feel at home. The bikes were so much fun. We didn’t have children with us but the gated neighborhood was very kid friendly. Easy bike ride to the General Store (very well stocked), liquor store and ice cream shop. The pool was great and heated for a fee. I will miss the outdoor shower. Easy walk to the beach. The beach was not crowded and the people around us were all very friendly. We loved being able to have the dogs with us. We had a fun bonfire on the beach. Easy, relaxing and family friendly. We will be back!
This was a wonderful home and exactly what we we were looking for! Easy access to the beach and private pool. My family are already looking forward to next year
Family vacation
Veranda Views was a great choice for our extended family vacation. There was plenty of space for privacy, but also nice big gathering spaces for dining and playing games together. Short walk to the beach and included wagon were a bonus! We loved the large covered deck spaces to retreat to the shade and enjoy the views.
Absolutely enjoyed our stay at the gorgeous Veranda Views. This home checked all the boxes for my family- 1)private pool 2)luxury accommodations 2) 500 or less steps to the beach. 3) QUIET, GATED community The owners are very responsive, and assure you have everything you need for your stay!! We can't wait to stay again. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.
This facility was the cherry on top of a delightful vacation experience. All sorts of unadvertised, thoughtful inclusions (beach wagon, pool equipment, rainy day games, books, puzzles) and practical equipment (kitchen utensils, extra linens, etc.). Everyone had a restful and rejuvenating experience at this lovely beach rental.
We greatly enjoyed our stay at veranda views.
We loved the house. It was very close to the beach and the pool was clean and refreshing. Stargazing from the upper veranda was amazing. I would definitely recommend this home. Our family of 9 had a great time.
