Location to the beach was great! Need a golf cart though. Pool was excellent! Kitchen had everything we needed. Had an issue with the dryer but they took care of it. The two game consoles were weak but we didn’t play them anyway. One suggestion would be to clean the return air vents. We had a great time! Thanks!

We love Tipsy Turtle!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was beautiful and we loved the layout of the house. There was plenty of space for the family to spread out and not feel overwhelmed by 14 people staying together. Only downside was there was a lot of stairs that our parents were not fans of given their age and physical abilities.
