Better than advertised...

This was one of the few rentals I stayed at that appeared larger than the photos. My mother is extremely picky, and we stayed at many rentals/hotels, however, she said this was the first time in a long time that she felt comfortable and on vacation. This rental gets my highest recommendation. I'll definitely book again if I'm in the area.

Great Everything!

Our family had a wonderful stay at the Seahorse Cottage Bungalow. The location and neighborhood was perfect for our visit. Walking distance to restaurants, beach and shopping. The home was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. Especially all the beach gear! The backyard was very large and perfect for hanging out and relaxing. Enjoyed the outdoor shower especially after our beach day. We will definitely reserve the cottage in the future.

Great stay, convenient location, easy walk to beach, nice patio and back yard, safe neighborhood, well stocked kitchen, bath and bedrooms, good cooling and lighting, for reading. My only recommendation is to replace floral armchair with something sturdier. Highly recommended.

Great Jax Beach place

Everything was as the description outlined in this property. We even brought our small dog and the fenced-in backyard was a big hit for her! We found this home to be spacious and very accommodating with everything we needed from kitchen items to laundry amenities. I would highly recommend that anybody staying in the Jax Beach area for an extended period of time utilize this property. It's very centrally located and easy to get anywhere from Jax Beach to Neptune Beach to Atlantic Beach, etc. The owners were very easy to work with and very responsive.
