    Great place to stay! Plenty of room. I would suggest bringing your own pillows and extra blankets. However, everything else was great. The new pool was perfect!!

    Everything about the house was great! Loved the pool table!! The only problem was a lot of trash, broken glass, rusty metal pieces along the Sound beach. One teenager cut his foot first thing, and we had to wear our shoes into the water from then on...

    We stayed at the “Salty Seahorse” from Thursday-Monday and the only thing we regret is not staying longer!! The house was absolutely perfect, the views were unbelievable, every room has a balcony which was amazing, it was very clean and accommodating for all age ranges, and we loved that it had a pool table for the days we experienced rain! We had a total of 11 people (7 adults & 4 kids) and even with all of us the house felt so spacious! We created so many lifelong memories we can’t wait to be back!! The only recommendation we have is for the tall grass out front/back to be maintained, super minor and doesn’t effect the experience. Thank you again for letting us have such a wonderful stay!

    Came down for our nieces wedding. This place was great. Plenty of room. Kids liked the upstairs with the pool table (could use some new pool sticks and chalk). Nice and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again.

    Our extended family spent a week over the Christmas holiday. The house is spacious and everything is fresh and new with great views of the gulf and the bay. Two issues for larger groups: 1) Noise: you could hear every step up the stairs and on the second floor downstairs plus the upstairs is open to the main living room and then noise made it impossible to enjoy two spaces at the same time for our 10 and 2) Not well stocked. There was not a pot or pan that was not scratched or wonky so we had to buy some and a lack of what we expected given many other rental experiences. For example a roll of toilet paper per room and no cleaning supplies. The house is a solid 40 minutes from a grocery store though there is a small store about 10 minutes away.

    This was a beautiful house. Having the bunkroom upstairs with it's own living space with a pool table and bathroom was really nice. The gulf side porch is really nice to sit on in the morning. We spent the evening on the bay side porch. Spent time on both beaches but preferred the convenience of the bay side since there was nobody around. There are beach chairs available. Beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms are beautiful. They had lots of books, games, and puzzles. Need to replace the coffee maker - turns off/on mulitple times during a brew. Also had some issues with the water temp in all showers. Was either too cold or too hot. Looks like they fixed a similar issue last year. I emailed the management company but no one came during our stay to fix it. On the other hand, the first day we got there, we reported no internet and they were very quick to resolve this the next morning. We had three couples and two dogs stay in this house and it was very enjoyable for us. Would definitely stay here again if the water issue is fixed. One minor issue - the cleaning people showed up about 10 minutes before checkout while we were still packing up. They were very nice but they came in the house with their stuff while we were still moving our stuff out. We were out on time but I would have preferred they wait in the car until we're out. Not much to do on the island compared to other beaches but the fort was great to visit and Pirates Seafood was fantastic! Would highly recommend this house.

    We had a great stay, only issues was no power in one room due to the breaker. Called the management team and they fixed it the next day. The view was awesome on both the front and back of the home. We got the back end of the hurricane. It was windy but we made the best of it. No complaints
