Enjoyable time and stay.

A very solid property. Great communication. Easy access to the beach. House could use a little love for minor repairs but otherwise very comfortable. Great layout for a family of four we loved it. I tend to judge a stay on if I’d come back again and I totally would here. Cheers!

Heavenly Beach Vacation

We had a beautiful week at the beach. Everything was clean, the house had everything we needed. Especially liked the spigot on the deck for cleaning sand off feet and legs. Prompt attention to maintenance issues. Great decks, ample deck furnishings.

My husband, son and truly enjoyed our time at A Little Bit Of Heaven! Perfect size and location for us. There weather was great which made our stay even better. The only "complaint " would be cleanliness. The are rugs are very dirty as well as the covers on the couch, chair and dining chairs. We spent most of our time outdoors anyway.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We and our furbaby loved our time at A Little Bit of Heaven. The only thing was the construction going on next door, but that was beyond the control of the owner. The house is wonderful and one of the cleanest pet friendly places we have seen. Great view of the gulf and loved listening to the waves from the decks. Communication was great. You definitely won't regret staying here. Beach access is only a short walk away. Bed and furniture were all comfortable. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful time at your house.
