    We snagged this property last minute as our previous rental through another company was cancelled. So happy we did! It’s a great place to stay with family- the separate apartments helped everyone have their own space and downtime. Everything was great with no complaints. We would definitely stay here again.

    Beautiful home on idyllic peaceful beach - in great shape while other homes around are still recovering from Ian. Also generously furnished. Nicely laid out for multiple couples for privacy - works with kids well - we brought monitor to be able to hear from separate room and gate for high porch for safety.
