Sun Kiss’d was absolutely perfect for our crew. We had 17 adults and 3 infants. The house was beautiful and stocked with everything we needed for the week. The golf cart was handy but we did rent an additional one for our large number. Loved having a pool right outside our back door. So many great memories. Would definitely comeback in the future!

We loved all of the extra space for everyone to have privacy when needed. Community pool was spacious. Private pool was perfect for hanging out. Golf cart made hauling our gear to the beach easy. It did cut off at awkward times. Very disappointed with the freezer. Never froze the ice cream or popsicles. Microwave went out so a new one was brought to sit on counter. Maintenance mentioned they would return to remove broken microwave and install new one. Never happened. A request for a broken lock on a door upstairs was not looked at until we were checking out. Other than those 3 things it was a wonderful home for our big family.

Location great area great felt safe in this community. House big enough for multiple families. Kitchen supplies ample. Beds comfortable responded quickly to requests . Pool nice size and extremely nice to have golf cart. Only suggestion would be to maybe replace washer extremely noisy and possibly new mattress in upstairs single bunk beds- only bed that wasn’t comfortable

This property was great for our annual extended family vacation. Previous reviews were accurate and we shared some feedback for minor improvements with the host. Definitely recommend!

This was our second stay at this property and we thoroughly enjoyed it. This is an ideal property for multiple generations with two bedrooms on the first level. The property was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. The children loved the pool, the quick access to the community pool and of course the beach! The property has been updated since last year with new chairs in the family room and the ice maker in the kitchen. The children loved the ice maker! We have already booked this property again for next year!

Our recent stay at this vacation house was a delightful experience overall. The spacious accommodation comfortably accommodated our party of 12, providing ample room for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. The management team was incredibly attentive, promptly addressing any inquiries or concerns we had during our stay. One of the highlights was opting to heat the pool, a decision we were grateful for as it added an extra layer of enjoyment to our vacation. Although the community pool was disappointingly cold, we made the most of it by engaging in spirited games of pickleball instead. However, there were a few drawbacks worth mentioning. The couches in the living area were rather uncomfortable, detracting from our relaxation time. Additionally, we found a lack of pot holders in the kitchen, which made handling hot dishes a bit challenging. Furthermore, the dining area felt somewhat cramped for our group size, limiting our comfort during meals. Despite these minor issues, our stay was overwhelmingly positive, thanks to the spaciousness of the house, attentive management, and enjoyable amenities. We would certainly consider returning in the future, perhaps with a few tweaks to enhance the overall experience even further.
