Summary of reviewsGuests loved the spacious layout, fully stocked kitchen, heated pool, beach access, and quick responses from the owner. The house had everything they needed for a wonderful stay.

This house is amazing and doesn’t disappoint! The description underestimates the home! Take your clothes, sunscreen and food…everything else is there! Towels, beach towels, beach chairs, 2 ice makers, games and puzzles galore and more! The location is fantastic! 5 minutes to grocery store, restaurants and shopping. The home itself…wow! Every detail was thought out so your vacation is the best it can be! Including flashlights places all around - great added touch!We have a large family and this home met everyone’s needs and wants. My elderly dad is blind and has a hard time navigating new places, but the master in the main floor was perfect! He could sit on the porch and listen to the ocean, easily get in and out of the shower, get to the kitchen, and navigate to the beach by the elevator and only 6 total stairs. The ramp to the beach is what ultimately sold me on renting this home, that was a game changer!Thank you, Carol for your thoughtful and welcoming home! Dewey was also fantastic! Book this home, it will set your bar high for all your other vacations!

Our vacation was fantastic! Communication with the host has outstanding - proactive, thorough and timely. The home is beautiful; our granddaughter loved all the amenities for children. The kitchen was supremely well stocked, the pool was delightful, and access to the beach was seamless and easy.

A perfect place for family. Lots of toys, chairs and beach chairs. Impressive amount. The house was perfect. Little kids room was to die for. There are movies and books everywhere. We will return!Carol was an excellent communicator. We did not need anything. Dewey, her contractor was extremely responsive on very simple things. You will not go wrong here.Thank you Carol & Dewey - you are the best! Have a great summer.

Our extended family of 14 had a wonderful time here over the long MLK weekend in January. The consensus view was that this was the best of many houses that we’ve rented over the years. It has wonderful views, nice decor, great common spaces, a wonderful kitchen, lovely hot tub and, as we hoped, a layout that worked well for our 90-year old matriarch. The house is full of lovely and unexpectedly delightful touches from a bedroom and bathroom that are really handicapped accessible to the lovely solar powered tea lights on the deck and the wonderful outdoor couch on the top floor porch. Even the somewhat less than great weather couldn’t put a damper on a great time.
