Great location and house

Took my daughter and 3 friends and their moms to celebrate her 16 b day. The house was clean and had everything that was listed. Location was perfect. Shopping in walking distance. I rented a golf cart for beach drop off but it was a short ride. When they were overheating and done with the beach we could go back and be poolside. . The night lighting on the pool is an added bonus. They loved it. The host was very responsive and welcoming. Check in was easy. Would go back for sure! Had an amazing time. Thank you!

Beautiful Home with just a couple shortcomings

the house was ideal for our family - the kids stayed safely in the poolhouse. Plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Great kitchen, sitting areas, bathrooms were updated and clean. Our only compliant was some of the accessories described were not accurate - the bikes for the kids were not working, only two beachchairs with the others rusted shut, etc. We also had a pool cleaning issue but that can happen. Just can't give it a 5 star with a couple of the "misses" - we would for sure rent again and would definitely recommend

The Best Family Getaway!

My family and I all had an amazing stay at Tide-ings of Joy. We especially loved the tranquil outdoor oasis and salt water pool! We felt so comfortable and relaxed in our home away from home. The kitchen was well-stocked and fun to cook in. The amenities were endless; the hosts truly thought of everything. They were so accommodating and a joy to work with. The home’s decor was beautiful and the overall vibe immediately put us in relaxation mode. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept so well! The house is fully stocked with towels, beach towels, bikes, pool toys, toiletries and nearly everything you need for your stay. This home is truly a special place to relax, unwind and enjoy a restful vacation! We can’t wait to return!!
