Beautiful Oasis Beach Hideaway

The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. Martin, the property owner, was friendly, professional, and approachable, making us feel right at home. The property features a beautiful and serene tropical garden with a private pool, ideal for swimming and relaxation. The interior of the home was impeccably maintained, stylish, and spotlessly clean. The location was perfect for us, tucked away in nature and offering a peaceful retreat. It was just a short drive to restaurants and attractions, and a quick walk to the beach, allowing for easy exploration regardless of the weather. Overall, it truly felt like a home away from home. Brilliant.

Pleasant experience

The apartment and grounds are charming, private, quiet, and peaceful. We very much enjoyed meeting and talking with our excellent host, Martyn. The Wi-Fi worked well, and we were even able to host a Zoom meeting one evening. Enjoyed being just across A1A from the ocean that's accessed via a well maintained trail through the sea grapes and pepper trees leading to the beach. Look forward to staying there again!

Quiet Getaway

Very secluded. Off the beaten path. Takes a bit of driving time to get to restaurants or other activities. Ocean not visible from the main highway, which would have been nice. Would have liked to have bicycles available. A pleasant stay.

Nice vacation spot

I would likely stay here again but the information online was not accurate. The pictures are deceiving - the bar area is used to contain garden products and the area at the other end of the pool is not usable.a So the barbecue is old and rusty.The room itself was very clean and had everything we needed.Martyn was always available if we needed him.

Love this property

2024 is the 3rd year we have stayed at this property and booked for 2025 already. The apartment is perfect for 2 people. The property offers outdoor privacy in a very natural setting with trees, plants and green foliage providing a very tropical feel. I enjoy walking and find there are walking paths/trails nearby which is perfect. Our host, Martyn, is very kind and is available for assistance, if needed. Highly recommended.

Wow just wow

From being greeted by the host when we arrived, a little tour of the house, and meeting their adorable pet, it was great! Martyn told us of a quiet beach just 500 yards away, we went almost daily and almost had the beach to ourselves, when it got a little hot and uncomfortable we were able to go back to the VRBO and hang out by the beautiful pool. The hosts were fantastic and only saw them briefly! But we did text them to find a place for dinner and their recommendations were spot on! The location was fantastic, the “apartment” was a perfect size, clean, quiet and so peaceful, relaxing, lush and green! A perfect vacation destination! Thank you Martyn and Linda!!!
