Absolutely amazing in every way. Beautiful house, in perfect condition, with everything that you could possibly need already there. The location is great, right on a quiet part of the beach. It's honestly hard to think of anything to change to improve it, it's just a perfect vacation setup. We already miss it!

Fantastic get away house

We’ve been looking forward to this trip for months. The kids were super excited, and the house did not disappoint in the slightest. They had everything we needed, it was well stocked and the extra garage with items was the best! You can see the owners pride in this house and it’s not just another “rental home”. Fantastic location, right where we needed to be.

Amazing stay!

This was the most well equipped beach house I’ve stayed in! The kitchen appliances, towels, toiletries and baby supplies (high chair and crib) were all provided and high quality. They also provided a TON of beach accessories. We didn’t need to bring any big bulky items with us. We will rent again!

We have been coming here for years. The home is beautiful and well maintained. It’s right in the beach so the kids can run back and forth to the house if needed. They have everything you could need inside the home and in the toy garage. We will always return to this property as long as it is available!!! The owner is incredibly nice and helpful!

Relaxation to the Maximum

The property was exactly and precisely as advertised. Extremely clean, beautifully decorated, well stocked, very quiet and peaceful with a very efficient floor plan that made the house seem much larger than the square footage would indicate. When the home is described as Ocean Front, that means OCEAN FRONT. The only way you could be closer to the ocean would be sitting in the water. Our host, Tammy, responded quickly to each and every text we sent. The property definitely deserves five stars and a 10 rating. My wife and I liked it so much that we are rebooking some more time in October.

Great Location and Top Notch Digs

Great place - not too big not too small - cozy - very well done and taken care of . Everything is just in the right place for comfort and ease of stay Steps from a non crowded Bermuda Beach. The Hosts are top notch and attended to our minor problem very quickly and happily. Location is just out of town but close enough to enjoy the restaurants and sights without driving miles . And super quiet - we were there on a relatively crowded summer weekend and felt like we were in our own bubble of peace and quiet . Oh and great air conditioning - frosty ! Good beds and comfortable furniture - Sonos for the tunes indoor and out was a nice touch . Covered patio Keeps you cool while you watch the waves and moon / sunset Plenty of beach toys so you don’t have to drag it all down there - Rest - a - Shore is an apt name for this place . We did some resting . We would stay again. Thanks Tammy
