Perfect

This is a great place to go if you love the beach. The house is as listed. I initially thought the pool would be too small but it was perfect for 3 to 4 people to get in and cool off. This was by far the cleanest and most comfortable VRBO we have stayed in. I would definitely stay there again. The beach is a quick walk 2 to 5 min. Publix has great steaks if you want to grill.

Great place close So close to beach!

A wonderful place to get away for 2 couples. Two large king master suites…only downfall is the sliding door to the bathroom lacks a touch of privacy…but overall a wonderful place to call home at Holmes Beach!

Great property, wonderful vacation

Great property, wonderful vacation. Everything was well taken care of and clean and very comfortable. Property owners are really nice people, very responsive and helpful. Great location only 2 houses from beach, was easy short walk each day and if we needed something was easy to run back to the house. Pool was good for 2 small kids.

GREAT LOCATION AND OH SO CLEAN

We loved Castaway Cottage at Lizzie Lu’s. It was spotless, had everything you could need and was a 1 block walk to the amazing beach. Ben was amazing to work with. He was immediate in his responses and upon my request, he arranged for a bike that I loved to use to explore the area. There is a nicely stocked kitchen with blender, nice cookware, Kuerig and coffee pot and all the utensils you would need. There is even a grill, but we didn’t use that. This cottage would accommodate 4 people, however the front bedroom may have noise from the kitchen or living room. We wouldn’t hesitate a minute to book any unit at Lizzie Lu’s.

Perfect cottage

What a perfect cottage. Everything was so clean and well maintained. The location is also perfect. We rode bikes and took the golf cart everywhere. The pool is lovely and private. We only cooked once while we were there. If you plan to use the oven make sure to pack sheet pans and roasting pans. The kitchen is a little sparse for anyone serious about cooking a meal. Ben at the management company was wonderful. We would rent the place again. Our friends loved it so much they want to purchase a home on that street!

Excellent place.

Great place for 2 couples. Private and roomy. It's very nice to relax at the pool after a day at the beach. I would recommend the home to anyone seeking a quiet comfortable stay at the beach.
