Amazing beach house

I can’t say enough good things about this wonderful beach house. The house is much bigger than it looks in the photos. Beautifully decorated throughout with so much character. Ann certainly has taste. And it was immaculate. As another reviewer said, the photos in the listing do not do it justice. When we pulled into the very private driveway and saw the house for the first time, my family all said “wow.”Kitchen is fantastic and very well stocked. Love the whole layout of the house. Our teens loved having their own bathrooms. Great views from everywhere on the top level. Beds and furniture all quite comfortable.Location is very quiet and private. Even on the 4th of July there was plenty of space on the beach. And once you are up at the house you are in your own world. Such vast views yet so private. Appreciated that Ann has a supply of beach chairs and supplies available…so convenient. Ann is a great host. Very responsive for questions, though we had no problems at all. There is a reason every review is 10/10. The only downside was having to force my family to leave at the end of the week. Can’t wait to come back!

The whole house is HUGE and nice with fully stocked kitchen :) it does seem a bit outdated tho A long walk to the beach from what we’re used to but it was last minute booking due to hurricane Helene ruining our original plans. Make sure to bring extra paper products, only half roll of t.p. and dishwashing tablets as there were only 4. I think the cleaner had to leave in a hurry per owner response. Ann, the owner was GREAT and quickly responsive to everything!

Amazing Beach House

We were fortunate this year to stay two weeks! The house is perfect. The location is perfect. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with our boys and their significant others. My husband helped out the volunteers on turtle beach patrol this year and loved every minute! We enjoyed seeing a large box turtle up by the deck. We even saw a small stingray swim along the shore . Ann is such a great host and easy to contact when needed. Until next time!!

Breathtaking!

This is not just a rental property. This is a home. It has breathtaking views of the beach from the house. However, it’s so private you don’t know anyone else is on the beach until you go down to the beach! We had an amazing time and the beach was beautiful. I have not been to the Atlantic side before this trip. We will definitely come back and stay again. It’s very hard to leave this place. This home is beautiful and very well stocked, and we will definitely come back.

Cozy, Comfortable, and Beautiful

Loved our stay! Even better than the pictures. Wonderful week with our adult children. The layout in this house is so unique. It has great character and comfort. Spacious enough to give everyone room and cozy enough with lots of places to sit and visit. Great views of the ocean and we loved the beach accessibility. Appreciated the owner’s suggestion of Viola’s for dinner. Delicious! Short walk down the beach to Safe Harbor and really enjoyed our fresh fish meals. Kitchen was set up with everything we needed for cooking as well. Highly recommend!!

This is why the beach house gets consistent 5 star ratings

It is a beautiful home that has all of the "lived in" atmosphere with such tasteful decor of furniture, artwork and a million books. The house has a panoramic view of the ocean and a deck that provides a laid back experience of watching the surf change, with drinks in hand and wonderful conversation all in one. Our group of six were all delighted with every aspect of their experiences with this wonderful home and the great beach that it overlooks. We will be back!
