Stunning property with private pool and exclusive entrance onto semi private beach. Very responsive management team that sends you a link to everything you need to know about the home and your stay. It is expensive but worth every penny. Highly recommend. You will not be disappointed.

This home was the perfect fit for our family of 18. I was a little stressed out with all the reviews about the pool alarm and the codes for all the doors and gates but it was a breeze. Also, thank goodness for the elevator! Everyone had it figured out in no time without issue. We didn’t get to use the bikes much (tires were flat). Great house though!

My family had a fabulous time! The access to the beach was wonderful. The beds, linens and accommodations were 5 star. Our only complaint was the ice machine was located on the bottom floor, not in the kitchen.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. The property management team communicated well throughout our stay to ensure that everything was going well. Anytime there was an issue, they were very responsive in addressing them. The home itself was just as the pictures described and the home was well equipped with our vacation needs. The elevator was a bit tricky, but we were able to use it throughout the duration of our stay. Depending on the type of vehicles that you are traveling in, parking can be a bit tricky because the driveway is in an angle, but we were able to fit two 15 passenger vans in the driveway. Overall, we had a great stay and are looking forward to returning as soon as possible.

Beautiful home with easy beach access. Perfect for a corporate retreat. The number of Access codes were a bit challenging to navigate at first but then fine. Garage too small to fit 2 minivans. Elevator helpful yet reliability is concerning. Huge kitchen and eating space. Bedroom suites were above expectations!

Really nice place. Elevator is untrustworthy. Finishing touches were weak. No towel bars or hooks. Curtain rods fell on the floor, stairwell spindles fell to the first floor creating a safety concern, gas smell in the basement. It just seems like the all the finish work was incomplete.

Very Nice Remodeled Beach House
Very Nice Remodeled Beach House
We stayed here for 4 days. It was plenty big enough. There were only a few complaints. When we arrived we were unloading our van and got a call within 5 min that it was parked in the wrong spot. We hadn't even gotten all our luggage out yet. There are a lot of codes. One to get into neighborhood, one into house, one for garage. They aren't all in an easy place to refer to. The elevator in the house is confusing if/when it works. The alarm downstairs is annoying. I can see why it's important for little kids but we didn't have any little kids. The fridge squeaks like the door is too heavy. Aside from that- the location is amazing, the pool/hot tub were great, the house was clean. Everyone had a great time and we would definitely come back. I would still give this a 5 star rating!
