Great rental
This house was VERY clean and we enjoyed our stay. The private pool was awesome because there were lots of jellyfish in the bay. Trip would’ve been a bust without the pool.

Clean, Smart Check-In, Attentive Property Manager
A mix of families and young and middle aged partygoers in this complex which was probably a mile from public beach access. Loved that my big dog could stay with us (although property listing incorrectly said only under 20 lb dogs but that was cleared up before we left). Great size and plenty of kitchen wares. Pick up groceries before you take the ferry across to Port A, so you can spend more time on sandcastles and relaxing at the pool.

Great stay! It was good for our family of 6 adults. The only negative was that the bedrooms got really hot at night even with the AC set low. The king beds were also a bit uncomfortable however having a private pool and a pet friendly property was great!

The house is a great set up for a large group. We loved having the pool and the bathroom and bar/fridge by the pool was perfect.

Family Annual April Trip
Property was great! There's plenty of space especially since we had several kiddos. The They loved playing the shuffle board in the living room and they cooled off in the private pool. Although we couldn't get the cable going in the rooms, our family found ways to enjoy each others company while taking a break away from electronics. We had everything we needed for our stay. We even managed to bbq Sat. Night. They whole process was easy since our initial reservation and we can't wait to return very soon!

Not worth the money!
We’ve stayed at better properties for the same or less. We stay in port a frequently. The pool was supposed to be heated and that was a huge selling point for us. We even paid extra. The pool was ice cold the entire time. None of the TVs worked in any of the rooms except the bedroom and the furniture was less than average. For the price it just wasn’t worth it. Will not be returning to this property

Great for families
We stayed with two other families of 4. Each set of parents got a bedroom and bunk room was perfect for the kiddos to share. Having a pool onsite MADE the trip. It is a small pool, but big enough for six kids aged 9 or under. There is a fridge and bathroom right by the pool and great chairs to lounge. The management company was very responsive and if you are going in the cooler months, the $50/day for the warm pool is WORTH it!

The property is beautiful great location. We had problem ac went out first night there and the pool pump wasn’t working. They came and fixed ac next morning. No one came to look at the pool we ended up look at the filter ourselves because no one would come out the filter was clogged full of crap. We had 12 people in the pool the pump need to be working we had to clean the pool ourselves as well. Was told we would be compensated for all the problems we had but never was.

Cherry on top beach vacay 2019
If I could make some changes, it would be beach access #1. It’s not a long haul to the beach and thankfully we rented a golf cart, which helped. The pool is very small and although private, the houses are right next door to one another. Friendly neighbors though! The house did not come with many staples and even though it didn’t mention that it would, we have been spoiled by other homes that did. Overall, it’s a nice place

Fun place to stay!
We loved the house. Worked out great for our group. Lots of memories were made. We loved the shuffle board, pool, and fishing! The pool wasn't super clean and was quite small for our three kids and all the adults, but it would be fine for lounging adults. The house is super cute, and in a nice community. Hard to find. I recommend getting instructions to the location from the rental company. GPS doesn't lead you to it. House wasn't ready at check in, only 15 minutes late, but this was a little disappointing as check in is already so late, and we had arrived to the island early and had been killing time. Didn't bother us any, and it actually made for a bit of entertainment, but the book states the property has Alexa. There was no Alexa. Hopefully this is not because someone stole it, perhaps the book just needs to be updated to reflect the change. It was a great stay, beautiful home, and we truly enjoyed it. We would definitely stay again.
