5/5 Everything that was advertise was accurate. Loved the location as it was close to a drive up beach. The pool was great.

5/5 The house and pool were exactly as pictured! Very clean and lovely. We loved the location as it was near the strand but in a quiet neighborhood. We’d definitely come back!

5/5 The house and pool were just as pictured and clean! We loved the location of the house as it was near the strip but in a quiet neighborhood. It was exactly what we were looking for and we would definitely consider staying again!
Quick weekend get away
4/5 Overall nice property, spacious enough for us, comfortable. Good location for what we were looking for. I understand this( prob only have weekly pick up ) but outside trash was overflowing and smelled so, so bad. Made being outside unpleasant. I would have someone get it more than once a week. The pool was nice to have but was full of sand( I get that too, even though there is an outdoor shower) and kind of dirty. Looked like at some point there had been an auto pool cleaner but it was out of the pool and didn’t look like it had worked in awhile. My husband netted the best he could. Also grill was super filthy and brush to clean was awful. We never figured out the lift either ( although I saw the email we were supposed to print, sign and send back a waiver…too late once we got there) Overall it was a nice place, very quiet area and not a far drive to beach. Would stay here again.

From the Owner: "Cindy, thank you for your comments. I wish you had contacted Crystal about the trash at the very beginning so we could have taken care of it right away. And yes, we had a Polaris pool sweep that was broken by the guest before you. I’m so sorry you didn’t get to use the lift—it’s a must! The insurance company does require the waiver. There’s no excuse for the grill; it should have been cleaned before you arrived. We invite you back with the promise to make your experience 100% positive. Again, thank you for your comments."
