Bedding and couch throw pillows are very old, dirty and pilled. Looks like they have never been replaced or cleaned. The comforters were badly stained. The beds(mattresses) look like ones you’d find on the curb for garbage pick up. Very gross! Lots of big spiders! I would NOT stay here again even though the location is perfect! I can’t get past sleeping in dirty old beds with dirty old bedding and throw pillows. Sad because it’s such a simple fix.

Great location…amenities needed upgrade
It was nicely decorated… but when you got right down to it, all my thought was that it was “lipstick on a pig” beds were old and thick mattress pads were put on to help but just too big for the beds and you basically sunk in or slid off… sheet did not fit. Pans very worn and missing cooking utensils. You can tell that things were slapped together just to make it look good but not useful. Master bathroom had you basically with the toilet paper invading the commode’s space… and the shower was very small (European size) with horrible water pressure. I have to say that The mgmt was very responsive and got thing replaced when brought to their attention. Probably will not choose that unit… they need to put more money in it to make it a lot better for the rent they charge.

Family vacation
The property was clean & well maintained. Our family hasn’t had a getaway in over 5 years because we opened a business & have been busy working it so we finally had a chance to slip away together & get some much needed R & R on our favorite island! It was WONDERFUL!

Great for family vacation!
This beach house was the perfect setting for our family vacation!!! It’s right on the beach and in the perfect location on the island. The home was well equipped and able to accommodate our party of 8 (including 2 kids!). The property was clean and well kept - the only imperfection found was a few boards in the screened in porch could use replacing and the baseboards indoors could use a dusting. Other than that, perfect!! Would definitely recommend this beach house!

Property was as advertised. Location is fantastic! Weather wasnt great while we were there, but the screened in porch allowed us to still enjoy the waves crashing. Would rent again.
