Ocean views

Do you like having coffee and watching the ocean from the porch? Do you like being so close to the beach you can watch your family play from the balcony and wave to them? Maybe you like lots of sleeping options at a super reasonable rate per night. Yes to all of it. We always stay right on beach front properties and this one was really quaint, clean and had plenty of room for everyone.

Family vacation

House was perfect for our family vacation! We had our 8 kids ages 7 to 18 and everyone had fun! The house was big enough for everyone, very clean, beach access was easy, parking was good, house was stocked with the essentials. Check in was easy, host messaged prior to check in, was quick to reply and we had no issues the whole week!! I would definitely recommend!!

Wonderful Spring Break

This house was perfect for our family of 5, although there are plenty of beds for bigger families! The kitchen was fully stocked and the bathrooms had extra TP. The views are lovely, we had lots of wind and rain but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the balconies and the beach. We even spent some time on the porch swing. Thank you for the lovely stay.

Fantastic location and set up

This house has it all in terms of fully stocked kitchen and excellent location just steps from the beach. There were a couple of issues related to cleanliness when we arrived, but management made it right. I would stay here again - being able to take a walk on the beach any time day or night is a huge plus. One suggestion is to put a curtain or shade on the window in the trundle room (looks like something has been there in the past but has fallen down?) because the sun comes up and shines directly in there in the morning. The master bedroom door is warped and does not remain closed, but i think that can be easily adjusted. Just a few tweaks and this is easily a 5 star stay. We look forward to coming back to see how it's improved upon.

Relaxing Family Vacation

Thank you Bernadette for being a wonderful host. We enjoyed our stay. This was truly a home away from home. It was spacious, clean, and the location was perfect, making it convenient for us to walk to the beach. My family and I had the best time! Thank you for helping us create lifelong family memories with our children, son-in-laws, and grandchildren.

Ideal location

All the adults rate it the best property we have stayed at on the beach. Clean, spacious and comfortable. Short walk to the beach and a good view of the gulf water from the decks and front windows. Very well equipped. Only needed to bring our food and clothes. Great people to deal with. Bernadette responded quickly to any questions I had. The five kids ( ages 5 to 10) had a great time.

too many guests

The first day we arrived, Bernadette was nice enough to let us check in an hour early. We tried to go to the beach, but the mosquitoes wouldn't let us out of the door. We looked around for bug spray, but didn't find any. We put that on the list of things to get at the store. That night we were getting ready for bed. My son asked me why there were ants all over the bed. Sure enough, ants! They were crawling on the ceiling and dropping onto the bed. They swarmed the master bedroom, the stairwell and the other upstairs room. We moved all of our stuff back downstairs and sent a text to Bernadette. She was very apologetic. She said that her brother had experienced the same thing at his house in Houston the week before. I took a picture of 2 of the ants to show her what kind they were. My kids were freaked out! This was not how we wanted to spend a relaxing vacation! Next day, we couldn't wait to get out of the house! We went to the water park to get away. No beach towels, so we added that to the list. When we got home, I was going to do a load of laundry. No detergent. Add it to the list. That evening, we waited for the ants to return. Every couple of minutes, my kids would run up the stairs to look. We were on pins and needles. No ants that night. I requested a refund of one night from the management company. I sent the pictures that I took of the ants. After about 2 weeks, they said they couldn't refund any money due to "Insufficient evidence".
