    This is the perfect house for a beach vacation. Located close to the beach (and the public access road). Spacious home with just about every possible amenity. We will be back!

    It was Amazing. Only issues were ants in the kitchen and the fan in the master bedroom did not work.

    We loved the spaciousness of the home and the proximity to the beach. The abundance of restrooms was ideal for our group of eight, four adults and four children. The jetted tub in the master was a blessing to these old bones. We greatly appreciated having access to the garage! The pond was full of beautiful fish, and the palm tree next to the balcony was home to a nesting pair of loggerhead shrikes, which especially delighted my granddaughter who is a budding photographer. If we could have stayed longer, we certainly would have. And we will consider this home for our future vacations. Thank you so much for providing a beautiful space to make wonderful memories.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay at Cute As Shell! The house was very clean and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. There's even a Murphy Bed! The kitchen was stocked with all of the essentials we needed to make a few meals with ample place settings. And the location is perfect! It's a 5 minute walk to the beach so you can enjoy the water & waves but pop back home for lunch without attracting a million seagulls.
