Fantastic and beautiful house for a family of five. Plenty of room, close to beach, but still private and quiet. Super responsive host as well-had an issue with some weather damage to the house and it was repaired within an hour. Already planning our trip back!

The host was very accommodating and helped us get settled in the property. This is a great place for a family or friends to gather. It has many great amenities. However, it does need some TLC. Several fixtures and fittings require maintenance. It is missing some basic kitchen items, such as scissors, a decent-sized mixing bowl, and salad preparation tools like a sieve or colander. I know that not everyone likes to prepare their own food, but I do, and the kitchen was one of the draws for me. I also found the gas hob difficult to work with, as not all the burners were working properly.That said, I would consider going back there for the location, the house's spaciousness, and the first-floor bedroom!

Great place, great beach
The house and property were clean and in a great location. There is walking access or public driving access to the beach. Both are less than 1 mile from the property. If we visit the area again we would stay here!

Great family friendly house in a fantastic location
We had a great family vacation at Sunkissed Sands. The house was larger and seemed to have more space than the VRBO description. We enjoyed the large gathering area by the kitchen, but also the ability to retreat to separate bedroom areas for some down time.
The beach was a very short 5 minute walk away, though there are some steps involved which may be challenging for elderly folks.
Plenty of restaurants, shops, gas stations, and Publix within a short drive.
I highly recommend staying here for those wanting a peaceful beach vacation.

No clothes dryer
Property was beautiful. Pool and outside garage area nice. Cleanliness of home good but not great. Clothes dryer broken when we arrived, and we were told that the owner wanted to wait for parts to repair it - something that would occur many days after our departure. Property manager, Ricardo, was very responsive and helpful, and he was unable to do much for us as owner has final say. This is a very expensive rental, and owner more concerned about profit over guest. We booked unit with washer and dryer for purpose and we’re basically told by owner that their needs were greater than ours. Also, cookware very lacking. No blender either.
