Perfect View, Right on the beach, very quiet and nice layout
Stayed Valentines weekend 2025. Nice clean place on the beach and either nicely renovated or fairly new construction. Owner was very responsive and helpful to locate local amenities and help us with items in the home that we were not familiar with. We will certainly return for another stay!

Beautiful home and gorgeous views!
Had a wonderful stay. Everything was perfect. Loved the natural light, views and comfort. Arrived after dark and it was hard to locate lock box due to not knowing location and no lights. Towels were in dryer and dishes left in dishwasher. I would recommend labels on light switches as there are MANY. These were just minor inconveniences though.

We stayed 4 days in June with our kids and grands. The house is lovely with lots of space…the kids loved having their own room. The location is wonderful! Beachfront with easy beach access. Loved how easy it was to communicate with the owner. We’d love to return for sure!

Beachfront Getaway
Location was great. Easy access to beach, Owner worked with us and answered questions timely. If you plan to stay here you will want to bring extra blankets. There was only one extra blanket but 2 women who freeze. I would try and find out prior to booking if there are any planned events at the beach. Sadly this was our kids Prom and we were unable to access the beach due to a Swingers convention going on the entire weekend. It was very disapointing! The whole scene was very dusturbing! Drugs-nudity-vulgerness.

Great view. Lots of bedrooms with private bathrooms, which made it really nice for us for gal pals who are all over 55. Kitchen was very spacious, overall had a fantastic time. No need to bring bags of ice, since there is a functioning ice machine, which was nice.

Girls' Weekend
Great time spent with friends and family before a first wedding. We had a catered brunch scheduled for another house in Holiday Beach, but when we entered the main room, our immediate reaction was....."this is perfect". The chef agreed when he came Saturday morning. We were able to get sun on the front porch and even had a pinata hanging from the upstairs' railing that exploded on the grass below. We all really enjoyed our stay. Wish we could have been there longer.
