Guest access:
You get access to the whole house. You can walk or drive your car to the beach access point for pick-up and drop-off, or park on a first-come/first-served basis in the neighborhood parking lot.

Relaxing at the house is easy, with ample room on the shaded front deck, on the back deck's chaise lounge chairs, or under the house in the hammocks.

Other things to note:
We do not refund based on weather, so while we wish you nothing but sunny skies, it does rain from time to time.

You'll need to be able to climb up a flight of stairs to access the home.

In an effort to secure the premises, we've installed a Ring doorbell at the front and two security cameras below the home. The neighborhood is very safe, but this helps us keep an eye on the property :)
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from Edith Hammock. Features include 1 hot tub. A kitchen and 3.5 bathrooms are available in the holiday home.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchen, washing machine and 3.5 bathrooms

Labor Day weekend
Trip started off a little rocky as we were unable to access the home on arrival with the code provided. Some difficulty contacting host as the number provided through the app was incorrect, but the host responded via app messaging and we were able to gain access. Home fit our party of 7 easily. We were able to drive and park right at the beach. Walk to the beach was about 6 minutes. Private beach was very nice and we met some wonderful people (other community owners) at the beach. Overall a great weekend. We would stay here again.

Family Vacation
We loved the house. Very roomy and the layout was ideal for our family. Nice big verandas. Kitchen was well equipped. Wi-Fi and TV was good, perfect for movie nights! Slight glitch in communication. We had 2 unanswered emails we sent to the host. Questions before our trip and then a question about the fridge/icemaker during our stay. We figured out the issues ourselves. If it had been more urgent we would have tried to call. Overall a beautiful place to stay: quiet and roomy and we really enjoyed the private beach close by.

Beach review
The house was very nice. Under the house was dirty cluttered with rusty falling apart chairs and trash. There was an empty bear can by the front stairs. The house was nicely furnished and well up maintained. The beach location was AMAZING and well with the price!!!

The house had a good layout with 2 Bedrooms on each side with the kitchen and living room in the middle. It was clean and in a quiet neighborhood. The beach is not too far away, we rented a golf cart so it wasn’t an issue.

Pete is easily the best host out there. He was on top of the entire process. House was exactly as advertised. Entry was a breeze. Walk to beach was quick. Might consider adding another chair and end table in living room.

Perfect for our Large Family!
Our extended family enjoyed an entire week in this beautiful home. It was enough room for everybody to spread out when necessary as well as had comfortable common area when we wanted to play games, cook a meal together, or watch a movie. The beach was within walking distance and they house provided a convenient golf cart. The beach was private so we never had to fight for a spot on the beach. The hosts were extremely responsive and easy to work with. Thankful this was the beach house we choose!

Great Place
The place was exactly what we were looking for! Perfect size and housed everyone comfortably (10 people). There was a small issue with the golf cart and Mr. Forde handled it quickly. Any time I messaged him, he responded quickly as well. I do not have one complaint. The beach was close enough to walk to the beach, and access onto the beach was easy and clean. Would stay there all over again.

Nice and quiet
The house was very clean and in a quiet neighborhood with the beach just minutes away. We never walked to the beach because 1. it was way too hot 2. we had too much stuff to carry and it was hot! 3. the golf cart was nice to bring back to the beach after dropping our stuff and there isn't a lot of parking for many cars The beach was nice and not crowded. Over all it was a great vacation and would rent this house again.

Great Family Getaway
We had a wonderful time at the Ohana Cabana. House had plenty of room for adults and children. They had everything we needed during our stay. Loved the short drive to the beach in the golf cart and the walk wasn’t bad either! Lots to do in town but the house is far enough away to feel like paradise.

Great Place and location
Our family of 10 had a great stay. There was plenty of room for all and loved that the house was on one floor. We had a short walk to the beach, beach supplies available for our use, and an outdoor shower to get rid of the excess sand. Plenty of family activities and restaurants a short drive away. Loved that we were not in the heart of the hustle and bustle of the town. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We visited with extended family and it was a great location for a long weekend getaway. The property was very clean, up to date and well appointed with everything we needed. The beach is just a short walk away. The beach was not crowded (even on a holiday weekend) and is very family friendly. The host was very responsive and helpful leading up to and throughout our stay. We are already thinking of booking again for a future family vacation.
