8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2026
This home was perfect for our family. The beach access is only two houses down, so the walk wasn’t too strenuous for our aging parents or our 2 daughters (8 and 10). The home had everything we needed for meals at home and was very comfortable and clean. Everyone enjoyed the outdoor shower too! There is a bit of road noise for the bedrooms on the beach side because this is a pretty busy stretch of the island. Unfortunately they were building a house next door during our stay (we didn’t know at the time of booking- but were told the week before our stay) so there was a lot of beating and banging, however once the home is complete, there is nothing to worry about! Overall, it was a great visit!

We LOVED our stay at Little Sunshine! It was very cozy for our family and we would definitely stay here again in the future. The property was clean and not cluttered with all of the extra kitchen stuff that some rental properties can have. The kitchen was well appointed with the decent knives, pots & pans, and small kitchen appliances. The beds were also decent. Not all of the rooms have dressers, so you may not be able to totally unpack but that isn't a huge problem because there are closets in the rooms without dressers.You can see the ocean from the covered deck and the public beach access is about a block away from the house. There are enough beach chairs and some other beach toys to use so you don't have to pack your own. We used the two beach cruiser bikes a few times as well. There are some other beach equipment/toys that are not in working condition and could be removed, like broken boogie boards or umbrellas. We didn't want to dispose of them since they didn't belong to us. We also tried to play Scrabble but neither game boxes had any letter tiles in them which we thought was weird. One more thing to consider...There is a new property being built on the lot next door. When we arrived, the pile-driver was still on-site and we were woken up on Monday morning at 7a.m. to them placing more stilts for the new house. That was the only day that we were disturbed but we just spent a lot of time on the beach to avoid the noise and shaking of the house.

Great location close to beach access, grocery stores and The Point. Home is as described on VRBO and had everything we needed for our stay except for a beach wagon which we easily rented from local company.
First time working with iTrip through VRBO and they were very good with their communications for property access.
Be prepared for construction on lot adjacent to property which started second to last day of our stay. Kids enjoyed watching the pounding of the support pillars.

Nice property but cleaning crew not up to par. Some steps need some tending to. Bad tv in the bedroom, needs replaced. Terribly uncomfortable beds in king rooms!
Basically nice place with a few little things to tweak as mentioned. Fabulous location
