    By far one of the cleanest VRBO properties we've ever stayed at. The house was spotless! We had a great stay and would definitely come back given the opportunity. The only downside was that the pool heater was not able to keep up with the cooler temperatures during our stay, so the pool was far colder than the set-point temperature. However, that is not a fault of the property owner. It was a great stay for a small family!

    Loved the pool and outside furniture! House was clean but needs updating. The hostess was very quick to rectify a couple situations- issue with front door lock and toaster. All were fixed very quickly. Parking was an issue; we had two vehicles and a golf cart that we rented extra. We could not park in garage, could not block sidewalk or park in street; therefore, we had to move a vehicle back and forth each time we wanted to use the golf cart. There were excessive “rules” that had costly penalties if violated- ex. had to move trash cans back to side of house after garbage pickup or would be fined. There were several add on costs if chosen- golf cart rental not included in price, heated pool cost extra plus tax and early checkin cost extra. Loved the neighborhood and beach access except the gate code provided did not work.

    This home is convenient to shopping, restaurants, and very important, the beach. This house has the nicest pool in the gated community that we seen. Definitely recommend renting the golf cart to drive to the beach and some local shops and restaurants on old 98! Very quiet neighborhood and would recommend for families. Loved that it was no smoking!!! Very clean and equipped with everything you’d need! Rosemary is the best at communicating, too! Very easy process for reservation and payment and even afterward follow-up. Highly recommend!

    We scheduled a very last minute getaway with the kids as soon as school ended. We scheduled Friday evening and were checked in Saturday evening. Rosemary was fantastic as a host and answered all of our questions very quickly. The location is perfect for what we wanted. A quiet gated community with a short golf cart ride to the beach and a private pool that was very big. We could not be more happy with our stay.

    The property,location and value were all excellent. FOR $2,000 PLUS DOLLARS FOR A STAY YOU CAN AFFORD TO PUT A DECENT MATTRESS IN THE MASTER BEDROOM. IT WAS LIKE SLEEPING ON CONCRETE.

    We loved walking out the back door to get in your own private pool every day. It was close to the beach. The neighborhood is very nice and clean. This place we stayed at is nice. I think it needs some upgrades. It is pet friendly. Rosemary the host was wonderful. Every time I contacted her she would respond. Thank you we had a wonderful time
