Top Notch!

I could write a dissertation about this property and the correct way to run a vacation rental but I’ll try to limit my praise. Absolutely everything from communication to checking in, accommodation and checking out was flawless. Every conceivable necessity was thought of. I vacationed with my teen godchildren and the pool was a hit! Immaculate, well maintained pool and property. I couldn’t figure out the grill and Mike was very responsive and saved the day. I travel worldwide and I never leave reviews but I had to take the time to commend and recommend this place. Thanks for an excellent stay! I will positively return

Upscale beach living

Overall the house was clean, nicely furnished, and well-maintained. The neighborhood was pretty quiet at night. The king size mattress in the huge master BR was firm and very comfortable. The kitchen was large, modern, and well-equipped. The number of stairs to the 3rd floor master BR was a bit daunting, and there are also stairs from the main living area to the pool. The pool was a decent size and reasonably warm, not entirely private; there really should be handrails to help get in and out. The motorized awning over the patio outside the living area wasn't working, which was disappointing. The seemingly short distance to the beach is complicated by the need to cross a very busy multi-lane road. Mike was a great communicator and always ready to fix issues (broken hairdryer, light bulb, etc.).

Excellent stay

My grands were in from California and we found this perfect property to all be together. We spent hours enjoying the pool and the provided wagon made our beach outings easy. The kitchen was roomy enough for creating our meals without being on top of each other. We enjoyed grilling, having a low country boil and other great meals. Thanks!!

Nice House for a weekend "Stay-cation"

The house is very clean and well maintained. The staff was very easily accessible and pleasant to work with. The pool is heated and the grandchildren spent a lot of time swimming, despite the cooler and raining weather. The kitchen is large and stocked with just about everything needed to prepare nice family meals (this is coming from my wife and I -- both professional chefs and owners of a Catering Business in Jacksonville). I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking for a nice getaway "Staycation" or to an out of towner looking for a nice family vacation house.

JAX beach vacation house

Overall the property and amenities were very good. The house was well equipped for beach activities and basic household supplies. The open concept of the living space was ideal for a group of our size (8). The pool wasn't heated when we arrived but that issue was corrected quickly when we reported it. The pool was a feature enjoyed by all. Kitchen with spacious counter was appreciated. Gas stovetop needs checking for problem with knob control of flame. We suggest that the ring toss game in the garage be replaced due to sensitivity of the image.
