The kitchen was very well stocked. There were many board and card games for a rainy day. The house was extremely clean. The neighborhood was great and the beach access easy. Just some minor suggestions: the downstairs shower is very slick. A handrail would be great in the shower. The handrail outside needs to be sanded due to splinters. There was no handsoap downstairs. Otherwise, it was a great stay!

Fantastic Trip
We really enjoyed our stay at Southwind! It was plenty of room for the 4 of us in our family and we loved the ability to walk out the front door with easy access to the beach. It was so easy to communicate with the host and they were very quick to respond.We’d love to be back and would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone looking for a location to stay.

Great Property
Everything about this place was great and exactly like pics with easy beach access. Great location. Only issue we had was with the HVAC. Wasn’t working properly but luckily the weather was really nice and we didn’t need it. Other than that this place is perfect for a family of 4 to 6! Would stay again.
