Beautiful, comfortable, clean, and conveniently located home, we would definitely stay here again. There was a big party with loud music on the beach Saturday night that lasted until midnight, and while the community may have "quiet hours", the beach does not. I don't know how common that is, but something to be aware of for anyone who likes a quiet night.

We loved this house! It was very comfortable and clean. The layout worked well too. The golf cart is totally worth it! Would love to rent again in the future. A couple of things to note would be bring your own food storage items (Tupperware, foil, parchment etc) and the cookie sheets are in poor condition. Overall it was great! Also Alison the owner is wonderful to work with!

Perfect Beach House
This property was meticulously clean and beautiful. It was an easy stroll to the beach, but I think we would definitely rent a golf cart next time. It was perfect for our family with three kids under 7.

Fantastic Weekend
We rented this beautiful house for a short weekend stay with family and friends. Everything from the booking to the check-in process to the check-out process was easy and extremely detailed! There is a golf cart for an additional rental fee. We loved having this to not only cruise around in, but to also assist in getting everything and everyone to the beach as well. Worth every penny! The house was very clean and even more beautiful in person. Great views of the beach and lots to do when just hanging out at the house too! Would highly recommend to others and definitely will be booking again!!

Gorgeous beach house
We had such a great time at the Whale House! It’s an absolutely gorgeous home with so much to offer. The basketball net, outdoor games & huge swing were a hit with my crew. Loved the proximity to the beach - just a short walk around the corner.
The property owner was super responsive & so helpful to send someone out to help quickly when we had a couple issues.
Definitely a fun place to stay & we would love to return!

Amazing Property but more amazing Owners
We had a great time at this beautiful property everything was just as the photos showed. The owners were even more amazing as the internet went down on our very first day due to no fault of the owners. They drove 4 hours with a hot spot to ensure my wife could work from the home. They also made sure that we had everything needed to make out trip enjoyable. First class property and owners for sure. We will be back!!!
