Great Vacation!!
Our stay at "It is Swell" was fantastic!! The home was very clean and had everything that we needed and more to make our vacation perfect. The house was only about a 5-to-7-minute walk to the public beach access and never had an issue finding a spot on the beach. My only recommendation would be that a golf cart rental is a must. We rented a golf cart for our stay and it made our travel to the beach access with our chairs and other items so much easier and also made going out at night easier then dealing with a car and parking. We would definietley stay at "It is Swell" again in a heartbeat. We will be back!!!!

Nice home away from home
Two families (4 adults and 5 children) had a great week at the beach. The home was plenty big enough for all of us to eat together and ample room for sleeping. Comfortable accommodations and a short walk to the beach. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Perfect Beach Stay
This is the second time we have stayed at It Is Swell, and we loved it just as much as the first. The location is perfect for a family with littles (can easily play at the ocean, in Eastern Lake or at the pool). We rent a golf cart which makes getting to the public beach access with all of our stuff a breeze. The house is beautiful and has all of the amenities we need. The street is street lined and transports you to what you think a tiny beach village should look like. The owners are also wonderful and great communicators. Nothing but positive things to say!

Amazing home for a family vacation!
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. "It is Swell" accommodated our combined families of 4 adults and 5 children perfectly! The house is appointed with all necessities and comforts to prepare meals, rest and relax! We have rented homes in the 30A area over 8 years and this home was by far a favorite!
The hosts were very attentive and responsive! My only recommendation is for those who are pool lovers, ask the hosts what the status is on the maintenance for the community pool. During our stay there was a challenge with accessing the pool the first couple of days and it did not appear to be maintained at the level you would expect of such a nice community. Our hosts again were very responsive and this is no reflection on them or the home.
Thank you for a WONDERFUL home away from home experience!

Great house and location
The house is laid out nicely with close proximity to the beach. We had two very minor issues and the communication and resolution couldn’t have been any faster if they lived onsite. Would rent this house again in a heartbeat.

Fabulous location and great house!
The house was conveniently located to the beach. It was clean, updated and was stocked with everything you need in a kitchen! Front screened in porch was a bonus as was the Weber grill.
