Great Location
There was construction next door when we went so the noise was pretty loud. Other than that the home was great. Beach was awesome ❤

Perfect
My family and I loved. My fiancé and I got married the second day of our stay, and the rest was amazing. It was so convenient to the beach with the patio access. It also allowed the kids to go in when they were tired, hot, hangry, etc. LOL. Rhonda was great to work with as well. We will be back and have already reserved it for next year.

Old and Rustic outside but very nice inside!
There was more than everything you need here. A closet outside with all sorts if sand toys, umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, floaties. Upon arriving the townhome looked very old, but when we opened the door- it was very nice! Very spacious, lots of towels and bedding, all pots, pans, cups etc you could need. Not to mention the beautiful view from the balcony and deck !Will stay again!

My family had an amazing time in PCB. We can't wait to do it again!
This home was perfect! It was nice and clean when we got there and the location was perfect. It was amazing to have the beach just steps away and any store we could possibly need was less than 5 miles away. My family and I can't wait to do it again next year.

Once we got in it was great. Better than expected.
We stayed three months to escape a north winter. The townhouse is right on the beach with a big deck attached. We walked on the beach and on the street. Several eating establishments are within walking distance. Signal Hills golf course was only a couple miles away. It was a very conveniently located for our needs. Spring break month was busy but not enough to keep us from doing anything. Overall this was a great place.

A wonderful place to spend your vacation
The first place we have stayed in the area that didn’t require you to clean when you arrived. The outside is old and rustic but the inside was very nice. Just feet off the beach was great and being so close to food and stores was great. Owner is there when you need them just a email away

Loved the home and location!!
My family and I just left out on Saturday and had a great vacation! We had a group of 10 and there was room for everyone (3 of these were children so we slept 5 in the Master bedroom.) The house sits right on the beach and everything was in great working order. The only problem we experienced was with the key pad on the door. When we arrived the cleaning lady was still there and let us in. We left later that evening armed with the pin we were sent. Upon returning to the house, the pin didn't work. Not sure what happened. Luckily, we were able to make it in through another door. We called and messaged the owner and ended up doing a factory reset to the code she gave us. She did message back the next afternoon with alternative numbers to try and apologized and said she had been caring for her mother. Outside of this it was an awesome trip and we loved the home.

Perfect! Absolutely the best! Perfect for the family! Easy access to the beach, clean nice~
We have already booked for next year! This is going to be our annual vacation spot. It is too perfect to pass up. We are not even going to think of the high towered condos, taking forever to catch an elevator, forever getting back and forth to your room to grab a bite, go the restroom, take a break, relax, cool off, etc. The facility is very clean, nice, up-to-date, accommodating, equipped with all essentials, perfect location, etc. We cannot say enough good things about this rental property. Perfect!

Nice and roomy, right on the beach!!
Property was well kept, everything worked properly. Loved that the water was just a few steps off of the back deck. Would definitely recommend this property and would love to return!!!
