Stayed at the Purple Shark for 2 weeks. Wonderful house, pictures don't do it justice. Very whimsical and creative art and light fixtures. Beds very comfortable. Rooftop cornhole at sunset was a fun time. Magnificent views with spectacular sunrises. Good communication with host. Would certainly stay here again.

This is a tremendous property that I’ll definitely rent again in the future. Spotless clean, bright open spaces, beautiful ocean view through large windows, large kitchen with very nice appliances. The bedrooms (4) are lovely and comfortable and the master suite has an ocean view, walk-in shower and a balcony outside facing the ocean. The roof top is large and open for seating in the sun with a great 360 degree view. The elevator is a wonderful feature to this property making all floors accessible. There is a lot of thought that went into decorating this property and there are “surprise and delights “ throughout. The property manager, Luann, is very friendly, helpful and responds to calls/notes quickly. The location is outstanding, putting you close to grocery shopping, numerous restaurants, and the old city. This is a 10 out of 10 property and I highly recommend it.

Place was amazing. Has a great time. Even though nice, the VRBO pictures and descriptions don’t do it justice. Place is super cool and so relaxed right on beach. Perfect getaway for our family with teens.

We absolutely loved the Purple Shark! The views are breathtaking, it was clean and well maintained. The host was very easy to communicate with and very quick to respond. There were beach chairs and umbrellas which was great. My only suggestion is supplying more than two beach towels. Great location and we will definitely rent again.

House was very clean and exceeded my expectations. The house is beautiful and well stocked with appliances and entertainment to keep the family happy. Short walk to the beach and a very laid back beach environment makes for a very relaxing stay. The host Luann was also very quick to reply to questions/concerns and made our stay stress free and enjoyable. Plan to stay here again very soon.

You can’t beat this property. The location is amazing and the accommodations are high end. We enjoyed lounging on the decks with the amazing views. You wake up to the most beautiful sunrise. It’s exactly as shown and worth every penny. We put a Yukon XL truck in the garage and it fit.
