  • Great Beach Getaway

    5/5

    My family and I had a great stay here and I would highly recommend it. The location was perfect, and home was spacious and cozy. Everything was available to us. We will definitely consider stay here again in the future.

    5/5

    Pool was great. Clean place. Easy to navigate around the island. Quiet. It made us feel like we had the whole neighborhood to ourselves. Having our own laundry and kitchen made for a relaxing week.

    We had a wonderful time at this property. It had plenty of room, looked just like it was pictured, and the pool was equally nice and clean as well. We will certainly stay at this property again.

  • Cozy Weekend Getaway

    5/5

    This property was just what I was looking for. Far enough away from the seawall to get away from crowds but still within reach to make the day trips in. House was the perfect size for my family (4 adults, 1 toddler) and the pool was used quite often. House was clean upon arrival, everything was easily accessible, and the property manager was very responsive for one bit of info that wasn't made available up front. Cargo lift was a nice bonus considering the heat and ages of some of the guests. Would definitely book this property again in the same situation.

  • Fell short of listing/Roach Motel

    1/5

    This place needs a complete and detail cleaning, starting with the walls and baseboards. It needs to be exterminated for roaches. I was so afraid that they would get into our luggage, and thank God they didn’t. We checked everything before we left. The microwave that is above the stove did not work. They were called and she said someone would bring one out and put it up. He brought it out and left. Each time we left we had to fool with the lock that wouldn’t work, and had to go down stairs to a lock box to get the key each time. The banister on the balcony was loss and about to fall. There was a pool that had a cleaner in the bottom, so we called to see if we needed to take it out before getting in it. They never called us back. The pool funiture pads were ripped to shreds and not able to sit in. The third bedroom was so deceiving. It was the pool room and had no bathroom, so if you needed to go to the bathroom you would have to go outside and go up the stairs, and fool with the lock to use the bathroom. I do not recommend this place.

    Hi Andrea, we strive to ensure our guests have a comfortable stay, and we apologize for any issues you experienced during your visit. We followed up with the homeowner regarding your feedback, and they would like to clarify the following:
    -We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the bugs during your stay. This issue arose following Hurricane Beryl, which led us to close the property for nearly a week to address extensive cleanup and pest treatment. Despite our thorough efforts, it appears that the treatment did not fully resolve the problem.
    -Please be assured that we are taking additional steps to ensure that such issues are thoroughly addressed moving forward. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we are committed to making improvements to enhance the experience for all our guests.
    We take pride in our many 5-star reviews and are committed to addressing and improving any concerns. We appreciate your feedback and will strive to ensure a better experience in the future.
