My family and I rented this place for our yearly vacation. Everyone enjoyed it! This place is AMAZING. You don't have to leave the house and it would still be a great vacation. Watching the dolphins while drinking your morning coffee is something else. But if you do decide to venture out, the beach is wonderful, and great places to eat just down the road. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

I’ve been searching for words to describe this property. The only one I can find is Exceptional! Exceeded our expectation. Beautiful house, well stocked, something for everyone. We have stayed in many rental properties in Florida and North Carolina. This is the only one that the whole group agreed upon being the best we’ve ever been to and hopefully can come back to again. Fishing from the dock and the private beach were good, beachcombing was good, the pool was awesome and the grandchildren were wore out every night! Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. I could go on and on about the property. Can’t wait to return!

We absolutely loved everything about this house and location! The short walk to the beach, having our boats out back, fully equipped house, the pool is amazing, no need to load up on beach toys and chairs bc they have it all! The home is beautiful and easy to be comfortable and feel at home and room for everyone! All of us were sad to leave this place!

The house is beautiful, exactly as pictured. It is probably the best stocked rental we have stayed and very clean. Plenty of room for kids and teens to have their own space. The location is amazing. Our family spent days on the beach, rented a boat to keep at the dock for afternoon dolphin cruises on the bay and squeezed in some pool time as well. We definitely followed others suggestions to bring bug spray or cover up for mosquitos on the quick walk to the beach.

We booked our stay a while ago and had been looking forward to a week away from the New England winter for quite some time. There were no regrets or letdown. It's true, the pictures don't give the full experience. The grounds are immaculate - even when some of the surrounding properties are still struggling to recover from the hurricane last fall. The house and furnishings are high quality - comfortable beds, quality sheets, ample towels, well stocked kitchen, beach chairs, basic fishing poles, incredibly comfortable couches, numerous seating areas, poolside furniture, pool toys.....it felt like a home away from home that was done just right. We typically spend most of our vacation hanging at the beach, walking up and down The Key on the beach, searching for sharks teeth with little time in the house. This location was great. It's a pleasant 2 mile walk all the way up to North Beach that you can do on the beach. However, the red tide was pretty rough this year (first time in a while). We were only able to a couple of days at the beach right across the street. Instead, we were pleased to have the perfect setup with the large pool and patio - hours of just sitting outside. Yes, you do get some bugs after sunset down by the pool. They aren't as bad on the elevated decks that are right off the living room/kitchen area. We spent most days with the AC off and the enormous sliders wide open to the decks. Sunrise was perfectly viewed off the back deck just to the side of the dock and across Lemon Bay. The sleeping arrangements were also great for two families - main master suite and a secondary master suite on the main floor. A two full size bed suite that the older girls slept in - bathroom with shower. Lower level was great for the younger boys - bunk room and a queen size bedroom serviced by a full bath. No complaints and I can't give enough praise. Hope to go back next year!

Great spacious layout with a fantastic supplied kitchen for family meals. Beautiful bay view.

This house was perfect for our family vacation and meet all our needs. I would highly recommend this house for anyone planning a family trip. The host and owners were very responsive and accommodating. Easy to give 5 star rating and would given higher.

Upon arrival, my group was struck by the beautiful landscaping and greenery along the drive. Pictures of the home that are listed are accurate but did not do the house justice. It was beautiful, comfortable and had a florida/beach vibe. This is exactly what we were looking for. The home was well stocked with necessary kitchen items, lots of towels and a very nice laundry facility. Beach chairs and towels were provided. Fishing poles and basic tackle were provided. The beds and linens were high quality and very comfortable. We had 5 adults and 4 teenagers. The layout of the home provided 3 different living room areas for everyone to spread out and have their own space. We rented bicycles that allowed our boys to ride the mile or so to the public beaches on either side of us. The pool area was phenomenal! The water was a refreshing temperature. There were opportunities for both sun and shade with plenty of places to lounge. The beach is also very nice. While there was a lot of sea weed in the water, we found a variety of shells and shark teeth. The beach is very private. We were one of two groups on the beach during our stay. We prefer the slower pace of this area. One of the highlights of this property is the balcony on the main level that faces the pool and the bay. We have stayed many places and this was the only stay where our group enjoyed evenings on the balcony having a drink and visiting. Just make sure you bring some bug spray. ;) We will definitely be back!!
