Great place with a perfect location

Swanky seahorse was a great rental. Lots of space and close location to the beach. We loved having the elevator for convenience for hauling things upstairs. The pool and spa were great and a perfect retreat at the end of the day. Brian was very attentive and responded quickly to messages. Would definitely stay here again!

Family

This house was great for our family. We were able to have our children and grandchildren all in one place. Lots of room for the whole family to enjoy each others company. The pool was very nice and well kept. The walk to the beach access was convenient even with littles. If your walker it was great to be able to walk to the broad walk.

We had an amazing weekend at this property, it was so close to the beach and Brian was great at answering all questions we had. Our only complaint was that it should be known the pool is shared with the neighbor and that you could only swim from 10am -10pm. Other than that the rooms were spacious and the house came with all the amenities we needed.

Beautiful Large House

The house was beautiful and spacious! Comfortably accommodated 12 adults! It is equipped with modern technology/appliances and has an overall new and clean feel to it. We loved the kitchen space and hanging out on the porch. Only minor complaint is the beach was crowded where the house is at. It also would have been nice if the house was more stocked with basic things such as soaps, more dishes, etc. Overall, I would absolutely recommend the stay!

Swanky, alright, but not accommodating

Six friends over 65 looked forward to this weeklong beach holiday. However, we found a number of accommodations lacking: no chairs, tables, chest of drawers or even luggage racks in the bedrooms; insufficient bedside tables, no bedside lamps and not even hangers in the closets. So we lived out of our suitcases on the floor. Very poor, and frankly at this price, insulting. The elevator was fussy and occasionally required that we climb the long, steep stairs. We knew the pool was unheated, but we were very disappointed to find the hot tub was rarely hot. Kitchen items were inadequate.The house was attractive and very clean with totally automated systems which allowed the host to be remote. But had the host been attentive or on hand, these issues might have been rectified.
