About this house rental
JP’S TURTLE NEST – Come “out of your shell” and stay awhile at one of the few true beach cottages remaining! This so-cute beach cottage is only 55 steps to the beach with View of Gulf from living room! This cottage, among the many made famous by the “Plein Aire Cottage Artists,” is completely remodeled. This 1 Q bed/1 bath/1 Q sleeper unit has everything you’ll need to enjoy your optimum stay: 2 smart TVs, cent. HVAC, completely stocked kitchen, including a great blender, charcoal grill, and more (no dishwasher). Come frolic with the dolphins and watch the turtles hatch. This house is pet friendly so if you are highly allergic to dogs this home may not be a good fit for you. Our cleaning service is very good but you may notice an occasional dog hair here and there. One (1) small dog under 20lbs allowed with non-refundable pet fee. This property does not have a washer/dryer, but there is a very nearby laundromat if you need.

This home is the perfect location. We were steps from the beach and within walking distance to great places to eat. There were no beach chairs or towels so I would strongly suggest renting them when you check in. The only drawback, if I were to be hyper-critical would be that the area rug could use an upgrade and my husband and I are use to a king size bed, so we had a difficult time getting a good night sleep, this is no fault of the property management, we were aware of it being only a full size bed, but because of that, we would likely stay at one of Plumlee's other vacation homes with a king bed.

This small cottage was such a beautiful place to stay. Very quiet and safe. Close to everything you need for a family gateway. We will definitely will be back! Thank you Ms Deb!

The property is about 50 steps to the beach and close to shops and restaurants. It was also very clean, but that’s pretty much where the positives stop.
The night we arrived, the light in the bedroom wouldn’t turn off because the remote wasn’t working. While we were pressing buttons on the remote, one of the fan blades broke and flew off. We called the emergency line for property management because we were afraid the fan would fall on us. They told us to sleep with the light on and that they’d be out the next day. They did replace the fan the next day, but we had to sleep on the very uncomfortable sleeper sofa bed. Everything in this house is too small. The bed is maybe a double. The shower was so small I couldn’t even bend forward to wash my legs. There were only 5 bath towels provided for two to use the entire week, with no washer and dryer accessible. There was no bath mat, and the shower curtain wasn’t wide enough to catch all the water, which often flooded around the toilet area. The hot and cold water faucets in the shower were difficult to turn, which left us either scalding hot or freezing cold for showers. There was no dishwasher and very limited kitchen supplies. The stove was so cheap and made noises for about an hour after turning off, and we were concerned about it being a fire hazard. The oven mitts were so cheap I got burned. The Internet went out a few times, causing the AC and tv to shut off, & we had to wait for everything to reset once it came back on.
