10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2026
We truly enjoyed our stay and made some amazing family memories at this property! The home was spacious, comfortable, and very well designed for a larger family. One of my absolute favorite features was having a kitchen and additional kitchenettes on the other floors. That was incredibly convenient and made it easy for everyone to enjoy the home without constantly going up and down for drinks or snacks.The location and beach access were amazing. Being able to look out and see the water from the kitchen was one of those small details that made the entire experience feel like a true beach vacation. The included golf cart was an immense bonus, and the elevator was another fantastic feature especially in a multi-level home with luggage and supplies.The pool was a major hit with our family. The only challenge was the amount of bugs that collected in the pool, which made it a little difficult to enjoy at times. We also noticed quite a bit of bird droppings on the balconies. I would have loved a screened-in porch or balcony area, although I completely understand that the coastal weather and environment may be a factor in the design.Overall, we loved the property. The space, beach access, ocean view, multiple kitchen areas, elevator, golf cart, and private pool really elevated our vacation experience. This home gave our family room to relax, spend time together, and create memories. We would definitely consider staying again!

Very clean, beautiful home!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
This was a great property with a beautiful, unobstructed view of the beach as the boardwalk to the beach is directly across the street. It was perfect for our group of ten(5 couples). We each had a bedroom/bath to ourselves. The elevator was a great asset for us 60 to 80 year olds. The pool was a nice feature that allowed us to cool off after a hot day on the beach. The cabin was clean, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. Looking to book again for next summer for our group of friends and family.
