Our family had a wonderful weekend stay at “Sunshine by the Sea”. The location was great with easy beach access. We also enjoyed the pool. The rooming worked out great for our family, with beds and baths for all! We could have used some beach chairs, but we managed just fine. A little painting needs to be done along with some updates, but we would definitely stay here again.

Our first time at this home...many wonderful attributes...i would say disappointed that "master" bedroom had double bed...and, a queen would have been wonderful in a couple bedrooms....also. the outdoor grill has rusted out so badly, that the wheel fell off.....the cleaning crew is not doing the job you would expect.....

Location is great….tends to end there

While the property location is great and the views and location can’t be beat, it kind of ends there. Access to the property is easy. However, once we got in there the couches are covered in stains, even the slipcovers were dirty, there is mold in every shower, the patio furniture that should be white looks like it’s never been cleaned and the daybed swing is covered in mold and mildew. For the price tag you’re paying, yes you’re getting location but it being clean and full of mold should also be expected. In addition we found it weird that multiple times we were outside the owner of whoever was watching us on the ring cameras. We heard them through the camera multiple times while we were outside. Also when we were leaving after our stay there was a truck out front watching us leave. All just very weird and not expected especially for the price tag you pay.

Awesome vacation

We had a wonderful time at Tranquilisea. The inside is spacious and the floor plan was well organized. We absolutely loved the porch and the large swing. It’s where we spent most of the time when not on the beach. A shout out to Dunes Property also. They were quite helpful on our day of arrival. We couldn’t have asked for a better week or property rental. Thank you

Wonderful Spot

Beach and location were perfect. Pool was a great size and we enjoyed the basketball hoop. House had a few minor things that could use a little fix up but we overall had a wonderful trip and the house was more than big enough for our large family!

Fantastic Place

We loved our stay! Very spacious and literally steps to the ocean. Only complaint is that the living room seating needs updated. Couches were very soiled, and there were no extra sheets to cover them with. Other than that it was wonderful. Would stay here again

Great Location!!!

Our family had a wonderful time! The reason I gave 4 starts instead of 5 is because to bring kitchen linen, TP, PTowels, etc was a hassle when we flew in right before we could get into the property. My feeling was that we were paying lots of money that the basic necessities would be there. They did have a roll of TP in each bathroom at the start, but to purchase everything was a disappointment.

Amazing family reunion week!

Our family of 10, 6 adults and 4 children, had an amazing week. Plenty of room to spread ourselves, games galore, wonderfully equipped kitchen and the pool was great! The back porch was the perfect place to watch the beach and take a little snooze in the ginormous swing! We will definitely book this house again in the future!

Charming house with lots of room.

House was clean and as described. Views were great. Very comfortable setting. Highly recommended place with multiple families or large families. The grill was in rough shape. Could have been cleaned or serviced. We opted not to use it because of its condition. Everything else was great.

Perfect Getaway for a Large Group Golf Getaway

Couldn't recommend this place enough. The rental service was very easy to work with and the house had plenty of amenities to keep you entertained. We found it hard to leave! Screened in porch with Ocean View couldnt have been more perfect and relaxing.
