The property was great for our group. Everyone had enough space, the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. It was a short walk to the beach and had the perfect back yard and pool. Will be coming back to this same house next year!

Stayed here with a large group and the house was fantastic. It’s a great location either to walk or use the golf cart to get to the beach. We had a blast and would stay here again. The property manager was also great to communicate with.

We had 17 family members stay at this house. Multiple couples and 7 teens. It was very nice for all the couples to have a private bathroom and bedroom. The bunk rooms for the kids were perfect too! The only thing that would have made the rooms better is some kind of dresser especially for the bunk rooms. Each room has a small closet but just not much space for their belongings so everything had to be on the floor. The location from the beach was great. A very short walk with direct access from the street the house is located on. When the teens were tired of beach time, we felt safe to let them walk back alone. The public access was really small as the surrounding condos would not allow anyone else on their beach. It was so hot though we really didn’t sit much. We just parked our wagon and headed to the water. The pool was nice and the backyard set up was great for good family times! The door alarm for the back door was kind of annoying but totally understand it’s purpose if a family is there with small children. We loved having the golf cart and used it so much! Many Bad Ass Coffee, Sonic Milkshake runs and Alvin Islands runs were made! Really the only true issue we had was the ice maker didn’t work. A maintenance person was sent and said a part needed to be ordered. We were never able to use it and the refrigerator doesn’t really make enough ice to keep up with that many people so we did have to buy ice and freeze water bottles to keep coolers cold.

They need to put a railing for getting into the pool for safety reasons. They need a new stove and range. Stove top cooks only hot. Pool table needs repaired. It would be nice to have beach chairs or an umbrella included. Other than those 3 items, we loved our stay. The teens loved having their own floor. Well equipped kitchen. Beds are comfortable. Close to beach. We never used the golf cart.
