SERENITY SIESTA/OLD FLORIDA FEEL/SANDY BEACH/GULF IN THE BACKYARD

Karen was very welcoming and responsive by messaging. The location was great and easy access to the water was so nice. Shampoo isn’t provided but this is noted in the property description. Property is very nice but on the slightly older side. We had an overall great stay!

The house itself is spacious, but needs a lot of updating. The description of “being on the water” is not accurate because there are 2 full lots between the house and the dock. Access to the dock was a two house walk away but we specifically asked if the house was directly on the water (like we were looking for) and she told us yes. When we arrived there was a random “punch hole” in the wall and there were A TON of flies (we killed at least 10 that we actually counted) We initially went to the beach to relax because we were told there would be a key left for us but she was very insistent on meeting us there to give us the key prior to her going to dinner which made us feel rushed to get there on her timeline. Trying to get to her house was very frustrating because when we called she did not know the surrounding streets to assist us when she knew google maps already struggled with pin pointing the location. Overall the rental was generic (updates needed, location Verified, fly infestation, not being on the water) but the location was close enough to where we wanted to be so that was the only plus.

Location was great. The sunsets from the deck were beautiful. We had a great weekend.

Good beach

We liked the place overall and enjoyed our stay. Karen was a prompt and accommodating host. The price is right, the access to the gulf is awesome, and its close to everything. I think the bald eagle has moved on but the wildlife is everywhere including a manatee that swam up to the sea wall! As with other comments, the house is dated inside (the master needs some help (mattress, bedding and furniture that fits), the main sliding patio door lock needs repair to work properly, and a new fridge is warranted. That said the other keys things work as expected....AC works great, toilets, water pressure, grill, bikes, beach furniture, etc. all good. Lastly the house was clean. My 4star on the cleanliness related to the patio furniture thay I spent 30min cleaning before we could enjoy it.

The property was great, despite an epic storm. The property manager quickly checked in to make sure we didn't have any flooding or damage.

The property was nice and comfortable, the view from the deck on the water was amazing! The property managers made things very easy for us! We will definitely use this property again when we come back to the area!

Nice place

We enjoyed our stay at this property. Plenty of room, and well-spaced bedrooms and bathrooms. Property is well stocked for vacation needs. If you consider renting the property, be aware that 2 houses are located directly in front of the rental property itself and the ocean. The first is several stories and is ocean front (owners) and behind it a one-story where the manager lives. Karen (manager) was helpful and responsive to our questions etc. Yes, it is 80 steps to the water and there is a nice deck to sit on by the ocean. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but were disappointed by the rental's location (backs to the street not to the ocean).

Great location. Easy access. Beautiful views from deck access on the property. While the decor is a little dated and updates would help, the layout worked great for our sons, their wives, and one infant. Suggested a few items for the kitchen. Property manager responsive.
