A little more about our beach house:

While this is listed as 8 beds (10 people), Room #2 (with the two bunk beds) has a bunk bed with a single on the top and a FULL on the bottom which our two young daughters love to share, so if you really need the space, you can sleep 11. The 3rd room is a casita which is perfect for older kids who wants time away from the adults.

Food:
We frequently visit the local fish market, where you can buy shrimps and fresh fish for a great price. There is a nice BBQ grill outside, along with a sitting area. For groceries, you can visit Sam's Club or Walmart just 15min away, that is where we do most of our shopping (I will send you Google map links to everything)

Later in the day as the sun starts to set, light up the fire pit and enjoy the amazing sunset on the beach. When night falls, turn off all the lights in the house and go stargazing; The visibility at night is beyond this world.

The property is in desperate need of repair. We were messaged regarding the upstairs patio stairs being " missing " shortly before we checked in. The obvious hole in the patio roof and exposed concrete/ rebar was quite interesting.The individual ac units ( 1 per bedroom and 1 in main living room) all leaked and/ or made atrocious sounds. The ceiling has obvious water damage throughout the entire home. The beachfront patio ceiling is rotted away completely and has missing light/ fans with exposed wires exposed. The patio chair was broken, blender broken, and shower heads so corroded that only a trickle of water escaped. The price point for a 3 bedroom beachfront home was only 145 so our expectations were low however this home needs to be taken off of rental listing and repaired.

My family and I enjoyed our stay very much, since we did not expected the beach so close to the house.We had plenty of room for everyone.The property had everything we needed to have a good time.We stayed during weekdays so the beach was only for us.Traveled with teenagers and they did not complained, so that means is a great place to stay with a large family or friends.

Right on the beach, with a clear view whether inside the house or on the patio. Perfect for a family vacation. Great sand, no rocks, and no trash. Plenty of space in the house and everything you need is included, from towels to kitchen utensils, all at a fair price. The host is friendly and communicative, always one step ahead anticipating your questions and needs. We can’t wait to come back!

The Playa Encanto location cannot be beat. It is far away from the resort development at Sandy Beach so we had a big beautiful beach almost all to ourselves. The house itself was charming and quite comfortable. A couple of notes that might help future guests plan... I would not have been comfortable sleeping in the casita because it is separate from the house. That's personal preference. I probably would have let my adult children sleep out there together. The kitchen is not particularly well stocked. A big group would be doing dishes frequently. BYO condiments and spices. BYO beach towels, sand toys and beach chairs.We didn't have the chance to use the kayak but were happy it was there. Next time! It's a good 20 minute drive to the nearest grocery store. About 30-35 minutes to Wrecked on the Reef. We didn't mind, it was so worth it to have such a peaceful location. The restaurant Santo Coyote at the neighboring highrise resort (1.5 miles east on the beach, easily walkable) was AMAZING. Well worth the resort price point!!

We got there and everything was unlocked. The house was clean. There are only two bedrooms in the house. One separate bedroom in the garage. That was a bummer as I didn’t want my kids outside. Having a house on the beach was absolutely incredible. Would have loved to be up on the roof. (Stairs are broken). We were the only ones on the beach most the time, with only 3 solicitors the whole day. Also best price out of any listing.

Fabulous and quiet beach! Stunning sunsets and warm water, perfect for long walks and shell hunting. It’s great to have access to the sea kayak and boogie boards. I would stay again because we had a lovely time and the price was good. The house was good and needs some maintenance and some more kitchen items like glasses. The bed frame in the main bedroom was broken resulting in the box springs partially resting on the ground. We were able to rig it, but it needs to be fixed. Someone recently had fish in the freezer and the smell was very strong. We bought baking soda in town and that tamed it. The AC in the main bedroom is not working well and the toilet paper holder in the second bathroom falls off when you go to change the paper. Tea kettle does not work. The place just needs some TLC, but it is wonderful to sit on the patio or walk down to the ocean.
