Host Stephanie was great. Quick to respond to a couple minor questions. The property is well situated in the Maravilla community. A short walk to the beach. Plenty of room to walk your dogs if traveling with pets. We felt very safe and streets are well lit. This house has tennis courts directly behind it but they were not a problem. You can’t hear any of the noise and the hedges provide some privacy. The deck is considerably smaller than it appears in the photos but overall everything was as advertised. The kitchen is stocked with dishes but nothing else. I’ve stayed in VRBO properties that have had some grocery staples and things like foil, plastic wrap etc. so bring your own if you want that type of stuff. The house is conveniently located to everything you can imagine. Overall we had a great stay and appreciated Stephanie’s hospitality!

Perfect location

We love staying in Maravilla, it is the perfect location to walk to our favorite restaurants and the beach service and pools are so convenient! This house was perfect for our family with 3 teenagers. We had our own space and spent time together but also were able to get independent times as well. I would stay here again!

Beach fix!

This property grew on us wonderfully over our week... so easy to make it our own as we enjoyed both outdoor spaces front and back, as well as cozying up around the living room and dining areas! So convenient to the pool and with a short walk to beach... shortest available from our area of SFH's! The communication with Stephanie was swift and always encouraging! We did buy or brought extra needed supplies for cleaning, upkeep but so easy to maintain. Thankful for our restorative beach week fix!

We really like this property. We had some very minor issues with linens and the communication with the property manager was great. She was so responsive. I think the house was a good value in a gated area with plenty of amenities.

My daughter had 1 week off from med school this summer and wanted to go to the beach and relax. Sea Joy was the perfect spot. Just steps from the pool and beach.
