The house is as represented on the listing. We found the living room a comfortable place to hang out and loved having the long dining table. The ping pong and other games were great to have, as we were visiting in the winter. There is beach access across the street and one can see the water across the dunes. The customer service of the management company was outstanding. We did feel the beds were softer than we would like. We were disappointed that the house didn't provide beach towels or hair dryers, but it was clear on the listing that we would have to bring our own.

This was an ideal location for our family reunion. The beach was so convenient with our several families of young children. It was an easy walk for all ages. The pool was great when it was heated and temperature outside was 70. Our first few days were lower 60 and the heater didn’t seem to do as well. Too cold for younger children when temp is low outside. It was nice to have the wagon, beach chairs and toys for the beach. Home didn’t come with enough TP, paper towels, or dishwasher tabs for a home that sleeps 25- but home was clean and beds comfortable. It was nice to have the extra refrigerators in the home for the food and cold drinks.

Large house perfect for our big family. Game room was a hit with our teens. Love the location- super easy walk to the beach.

Loved this house! Our family consisted of our 83 year old parents, our kids and grandkids (7months-7 yrs old), and my husband and me. The setup is perfect so that late night games can be played downstairs while people sleep upstairs without being disturbed by the noise. The location is perfect. The beach is amazing! The only suggestion I have is that a small amount of basic cooking seasonings, a large skillet, and extra blankets be available. We were surprised that there were absolutely no seasonings in the cabinets. The property management team was phenomenal…quick to respond to questions, and actually sent housekeeping by to bring extra blankets for my parents. Totally recommend this house!

Great for a large family. The bikes were a hit with our teenagers! We loved the pool and the short walk to the beach.

My family and extended family spent a wonderful week here reconnecting with one another and enjoying the quick and easy walk to the beach. The house is angled in the most perfect way so that the wide front porch never has the heat of the direct sun. We enjoyed many mornings there drinking coffee and listening to the waves hit the beach. Many of us had fun in the bonus game room and especially loved how we could be playing pool or ping-pong without disturbing anyone sleeping upstairs. While the house is not the most updated on the beach, that was less important to us than the time we had together and this place was perfect for that.

This was a beautiful home and perfect location! A refrigerator in the downstairs area would have been great as well as outside lighting. Amazing spot for family and friends!

Super close beach access, fun game room, pool, clean house, a lot of space, and close proximity to night life downtown.

The proximity of this house to the beach plus the pool, was perfect for us.

Great location! short walk to the beach and gorgeous views. Wagons with chairs, umbrellas, sand toys all provided was awesome. The game area is so fun and if you have little kids who are napping or sleeping upstairs it is a great retreat for rowdy adults. The heated pool is great, the listing did not specify it was a additional charge or that you have to request it. When I asked if it was on they came to put it on and it took about 48 hours to warm up which was frustrating being a chilly in October and not being told we should ha e requested that immediately. But they came very quickly to turn on and that was appreciated.

Thank you for the excellent review! Very accurate description of this family fun beach house. The pool does take some time to heat up, it is a very large pool for the beach with a brand new electric pool heater. Hope to have you back soon - Gulf Coast Getaways

The House was Amazing. The game room area was awesome. The only cons was we were expecting a hot tub and hammock that were in pictures and description but are no longer there. Overall everything was perfect and would definitely rent again

The house was great and plenty of bikes and beach chairs. The view was great and everything was as advertised. I would highly recommend it

Our family of 10 adults stayed for 5 days for our mother/ grandmother’s birthday celebration. The home had plenty of space for group time and plenty of space for everyone to have that little bit of needed privacy. There are a few maintenance issues at the property but k no thing that could not be easily overlooked

We had a wonderful time staying here for a week. The location is perfect, just a walk across the street to the beach., and close to grocery stores and restaurants. The house is well equipped for large gatherings. The pool was a big hit with the little ones, very clean and maintained. There are plenty of chairs, umbrellas and beach toys and bikes to keep everyone happy. Had small issue with an appliance and it was dealt with immediately. Management communication was very easy and any questions were answered promptly. I would highly recommend this house!!

We absolutely loved this place! We stayed with 6 other families! It is perfect location from the beach (1 minute walk to a private beach access). The beach was never crowded while we were there. The house is beautiful! A few of the beds weren’t as comfortable as people were hoping, but everyone loved the house! The pool is so great! The downstairs game room is an awesome addition in case there’s bad weather. The property management team was always quick to respond to any questions I had. Every family truly enjoyed their stay and we are already looking to hook again in the future.

This property was everything it promised to be. Great location. Our family enjoyed the bikes and game room.

The house was just as listed! Lots of things to do, fully stocked kitchen, tv’s to accommodate different viewing interests, tons of beach supplies, the bikes were great, we loved the basement space to hang out and play games! It was absolutely perfect for the 12 of us and all my needs were met and replied to in a very timely manner. Very very happy with our entire experience at this home!

Great Beach House for family with kids from 6 to 72! Gameroom allowed two separate areas for indoor activities. Beach, pool, hot tub, and bikes provided great outdoor fun! Kitchen was stocked with lots of cooking and serving supplies for a large family. We highly recommend! We'll be baack!
