8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
In general my family really loved the beachside location of this property. The house is lovely and well-decorated. It has 4 floors with an elevator. The top level has 2 masters, next floor is living area with one master. The kitchen is updated tho a bit small for more than 2 people to get into at once. There is a small pantry-ish area next to the half bath that was helpful and had an additional refrigerator which we used. The only one icemaker can be a bit of a challenge but we made it work and assume the others will be repaired. There is also another wine fridge on the second floor that was helpful too. The only hesitation is that the AC for the 4th floor bedrooms was struggling to keep up with the 100 degree heat and was uncomfortable for the couple in the non beach side bedroom. Maintenance was very fast and efficient and did get someone out to recharge the compressors for the 4th floor that day. Service was great. The basement does have storage for beach things and some extra beach things were left there to use. We chose to use the VayKLife credit for some bicycles, chairs, umbrellas, a wagon and 2 boogie boards. That was a good choice. My son-in-law also brought a shade cover called a Shibumi that is very popular and easier to put up and I would recommend that as well. We had a great time...ate at a lovely restaurant called The Nest ( make reservations) and just generally enjoyed the island along with a kayak trip with SouthEast Adventures (great guide named jeff).

Everything was perfect! The house was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We loved the location being so close to the beach. The house was very spacious and the bedrooms were large. We definitely want to come back for a longer stay!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2022
The house needs a deep cleaning, treatment for bugs, new bed linens (hole in fitted sheet) door handles hard to lock due to age and exposure to salt air, burned out lightbulbs, AC is not adequate for the size of the house! I’ve lived in the south my entire life. In small and large houses. I have never had an issue heating or cooling any of those houses because they all had the correct size hvac. Beautiful house, great location but house has been neglected.
