Family Tides was beautiful! It reminded us of the times we stay at 30A! It was very well maintained, clean, and nicely decorated. We will be back for sure! Even though it was not on the beach, it was very close/walking distance with small kids! We enjoyed all of the porches along with the water feature/pond and large green space in the back. We also loved the beach club! Ate there every night because any grocery store is 30 min away! Great food though! One small hiccup: we experienced some stormy weather and the “hurricane doors” would literally fly open from the wind. A little scary. We put chairs in front of them so they wouldn’t randomly take out one of the babies

Property is in excellent condition and just as advertised. The management company is very responsive and did a great job explaining the process. Kitchen is well setup for visitors and the bathrooms were in great working order. Outdoor spaces are amazing and relaxing. Took advantage of the beach club, was a great addition to the beach. Would definitely rent this house again!

This house is well appointed for hosting families. There is a large dining table that seats 12. The kitchen is well stocked with all you need to cook and serve a family meal. There are multiple porches with adequate seating, so you never have to sit in direct sun. Beach access is two houses away.

The house was nice. Kitchen was large and ample room for many cooks in the kitchen. Noticed ants in kitchen and 2nd floor bedroom and contacted property manager. Was told maintenance would come but never did. Inquired twice about this. Bought Raid and sprayed the areas but ants still a nuisance. Laundry pods placed in kitchen with dishwasher pods. Ran the dishwasher since no label and water/suds throughout part of kitchen. Both situations were not ideal, but we still had a nice vacation. Kinda peeved that the ants were never addressed.
