Great Stay

This was a great stay for a nice, relaxing getaway. It was exactly what we needed. The beach was quiet, and we had plenty of room to set our stuff down without being too close to other beach-goers. Easy to find and the check-in process was easy. Would for sure stay again!

Great location

Rental process was smooth, location could not be beat. Unit had a strong musty smell. I strongly suggest cleaning vents and investigating source of smell.

We had a wonderful time as other family were staying close by and we love the Gulf Coast. The townhouse could use a few updates, the floor and paint, but it was clean and comfortable. We loved it being so close to the beach.

Great proximity to beach

The best part about this property is how easy it is to get to the beach and it is not crowded. We have small children and the short walk allowed us to go to and from the beach as needed. The townhome has everything you need such as linens, pots, pans. The pool is very basic but our kids enjoyed it. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again. Reed realty was great to work with. The beach club nearby offers pizza, ice cream, and entertainment. There is a dollar store very nearby as well

Quiet and Relaxing

It was a nice, relaxing atmosphere. We just wanted to relax on the beach and listen to the waves. The wind was a little strong for a couple days but all was good. The property needed a little maintenance but we had a great time!

Overall good property. We did have an issue when we checked in with the lock code not working due to the lock having an issue, but they unlocked the door over the phone and sent a technician out within 30 minutes to reset the lock.
