beautiful home

Day Drifting Away is a beautiful home with plenty of comfortable rooms for everyone. The beach was so close, but we also enjoyed hanging out by the pool. It was nice to have bikes, chairs, and umbrellas provided. It was also convenient to be so close to St. Armonds. We had a great vacation and would like to return.

We had a wonderful stay

Our large group of travelers had the best time staying at this gorgeous house! It's so nice! And the location is right by the beach, just a few minutes to walk over there and it was super easy. We live in Michigan so to come and stay here during winter was the best decision ever. The rental company was super responsive when we accidentally locked ourselves out and had to call them. Everything was brand new and the house was really upscale and beautiful, we all thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable beds and we each had our own ensuite bathroom. The kitchen had new appliances and even the small things like a blender for smoothies and a nice coffeemaker so we didn't have to run out and pick up takeout unless we wanted to. The decor looks straight out of a magazine photo! We totally loved the pool area and spent every minute we weren't at the beach out there swimming. Extra points added for how clean the entire place was, how easy it is to book and check in, and how much we already want to come back and stay again. Thanks for having us.
