We really enjoyed this house! The kitchen appliances were wonderful and it was awesome being directly on the beach. The bed was so comfortable in the master suite upstairs but the only thing we might suggest is some type of window covering on the big window because it is very bright. Also wondering if the bed in the other room upstairs could be tightened. My son and his wife said it was really squeaky. We would definitely want to rent this house again!

The location-right on the beach was great. Beds were comfortable. Pool was heated as requested. But we rented from VRBO and then dealt with Fun Vacay from that point on. Our family loved the house. The 2nd kitchen was a big plus!!

House was directly on the beach. Had a great view with two ocean front balconies. House was very spacious and was well stocked with kitchen items and toiletries. There were a few things that needed to be repaired like the lower stove had an error code and the pool gate didn’t latch properly but overall a great place to stay.

Girls Birthday Get-Away
This rental is very spacious for our group of 16 women, coming from 3 states, to celebrate 3 birthdays. Beds were very comfortable and the 2nd floor main kitchen was pretty well stocked. It was nice having the extra kitchen and refrigerator on the first floor. It was also nice having 3 decks, we used them all, especially enjoyable for coffee in the morning or at night with a breeze and just listening to the water on the coastline. We had a few issues arise while there but the management company got right on it. There were 4 beach chairs for our use but we brought 10 ourselves in our 3 minivans. The beach is narrow so we didn't have to carry chairs far. You could rent 2 chairs w 1 umbrella from the company on the beach. Highly recommend renting a pontoon boat w Capt. to take your group (no more than 10) to Crab Island - we needed two boats.

We had a fantastic stay with our whole family. The easy access to the beach just down the walkway and the views of the ocean from the mail balcony were huge pluses for our group.

Great week
The house is right on the beach, very convenient.The house was nice and clean. The kitchen was very good with sufficient amount of cooking utensils and plates/glasses. All rooms were well kept with fans in every room. The AC was good. The master bedroom and bath were great. Everything was perfect for our family needs. A few items needed attention from maintenance and they were taken care of quickly.
The outdoor furniture padding were dirty and the outdoor grill was functional but ugly.
Everything else was great and I would stay here again.
