Great vacation
Property is in a good location to walk to Main St or Maddox Ave. House had plenty of room for the 8 of us. Everything worked as is should. Only down fall was the garage/porch area. We couldn't enjoy it because it got so hot out there.

Great house
The house was wonderful. We had 4 adults and 6 kids and there was plenty of space for everyone to hangout. The extra space in the garage was a huge help with storage of bikes and beach stuff. The kids loved having their own large room to hangout away from the adults. The house is convenient to downtown and its easy to walk or ride your bike places. We would book again.

Great location!
We had a wonderful time at The Good Life on Ocean. With several families totaling nine guests, the space worked perfectly for us. The location is fantastic—you can walk to Main St., where there are many shops and restaurants. It's also a walkable distance to the carnival grounds (a bit longer, but manageable), and you're very close to Maddox Blvd., which offers even more shops and dining options. The air conditioning worked excellently, and the kitchen was spacious and well-equipped.
Although it is an older beach home, it was very clean and well-maintained, adding to the charm of our stay.
There are a few minor improvements that would make a significant difference for this rental:
The bunk bed is a basic Ikea model, suitable for very young children. Our 12 and 13-year-olds found it small and uncomfortable, though they made it work. The upstairs room is large, so investing in a more substantial bunk bed would be beneficial. The rest of the beds were very comfortable.
The kitchen was missing some minor essentials that would have been helpful for a week-long stay:
Only one dishcloth was provided; a few more would be very useful.
There were no basic cooking essentials like salt, pepper, or oil. Having these basics on hand is usually standard in many rental homes and would enhance the guests' experience.
Overall, we had a great stay and enjoyed the property. With these small improvements, it could be even better. Thank you for a memorable vacation!

Lovely Home Away from Home
This home welcomes you with a fresh, clean, updated feel. The first floor offers two bedrooms, a very lovely full bath, living, dining, and kitchen area, with a nice utility room for the washer, dryer, and refrigerator.
Upstairs is a very nice family suite. You first enter the large master bedroom, and through that, you enter the spacious kids' room, with two double beds and twin bunks. We easily carried the two bunk mattresses downstairs to one of the bedrooms to accommodate another family.
This house was dubbed our 'quiet house' since we chose our second rental for our main meeting place.
The garage could serve as a play area for children in the event of a rainy day. There is a nice cement area behind the house with a hose for washing off sand after a beach day.
With a little creativity, the house served us well and made us a refreshing home away from home.
