Beautiful beach home getaway!
The house was clean, beautifully decorated right on the beach!! We had a great time at our family reunion, the house was spacious, clean, in a great location, close to shopping and fun entertainment, the kids loved the pool just as much as the beach. We could not have asked for a better place.

2023 Get-Away
Our stay at the Hammerhead was amazing! Taylor was extremely helpful days before our stay until the day we left! We had 6 families, 30 people total, and the house fit us perfectly! With two kitchens and two living rooms, we never felt overly crowded! The house was very well equipped with everything we needed, including two washer/dryers. Anytime we had a problem (there weren't many), maintenance was there to repair it. The only downfall (not really a downfall to us) was the amount of kids on the beach from the Christian Retreat Center, although they were very polite and respectful. They would even come join our group in volleyball games. They were great, it was just a lot of people some days, and some days not as many! All in all, we had a great time and made lots of memories with our friends and family!

Great house
The house is great. It is well equipped with kitchen supplies and towels in the bathrooms. It would have been nice to have some basic items like coffee filters and very basic spices in the house but they are upfront about needing to bring your own. We loved having the pool right on the beach and a short boardwalk right down to the beach. Only negative is the house is across the street from laguna beach Christian retreat and we had about 300 teenagers overtake the beach right in front of our house one day. The kids and counselors were nice but it was a bit crazy to have a youth group surround your beach chairs and umbrellas and just take over the area. Overall a great house and experience.

OMG...Hammerhead was FANTASTIC!
21 family and friends were well satisfied with this large, four floor, clean and well equipped property! Kids loved the fourth floor, so did adults below (property is well insulated), right on the beach, just what this family was needing for a great vacation. There was absolutely nothing that we needed, chairs and umbrellas were delivered everyday, ordered a bon-fire complete with lights, Teepee, smores, two kitchens, multiple refrigerators, dish washers...I could on and on. Family is already planning our next vacation at Hammerhead!

Baseball and beaches
The house and location was perfect for what we were looking for. We stayed for my son‘s baseball tournament and I had plenty of space (and washers and dryers)to clean his uniforms. My only complaint is that the air conditioner isn’t really strong, as a Floridian and I know that it’s difficult during the day but at night it struggled as well. We also had some issues with electrical in general which was able to be fixed by flipping the breaker box.unfortunately one of the rooms wasn’t able to be fixed while we stayed there, But, with as many rooms as there was with such a small group we made due w/what we had. All in all the house was great, beaches were beautiful and the chef they recommended was perfection. Had the ac,electrical and elevator been working it would have been a flawless experience.

Fantastic family vacation
We had an absolute blast in Hammerhead with my family of 17 for Thanksgiving. The booking process was smooth and the house was clean. We liked having 2 kitchens, multiple balconies with ocean views and the vertical living allowed everyone to spread out. The direct beach access was huge and we enjoyed the hot tub and plunge pool (def request the heat in advance). Some reviews have warned about it being in the middle of a religious retreat campus but we didnt have any issues. The house is right on a busy street would be the only ding on locale and parking limited to 3-4 vehicles. Thank you for an amazing vacation spot. We would come back!

Top notch! Wish it had been down the beach a little closer to pier area but fantastic overall
Everything was top notch. The only thing I wish we would’ve known was that it was smack dab in the Christian camp area and it felt a little awkward when we had music playing and drinking.

Fun week at Hammerhead
It was a beautiful house and had plenty of rooms for a large group of people. The house was nice and clean. The layout of the rooms online was a bit confusing. There is only 1 master king suite that gets a deck and ocean view and it's on the 3rd floor. There is 1 other king suite next to the master that gets an ocean view out the side window. All other master suites get street view regardless of what floor. The 4th floor has two bunk rooms and a hang out area in between. One bunk room has a street view and the other gets a deck and ocean view. The kids loved their bunk rooms. The 1st and 2nd floor kitchens had the back deck ocean views. With 4 floors and decks facing the ocean, we would have preferred more king suites to have a deck or better ocean view like many other ocean front vacation homes. There is 1 room on the main floor if you have a who can't climb up to 4 flights of stairs multiple times a day. The beach was clean and amazing. We weren't aware of a retreat center just a few doors down. They do have large groups up to 500+ that take over the beach without warning. Overall, great location and traffic was minimal. The staff was very responsive and took great care of us.

Absolutely beautiful home
Can’t recommend this house enough. Holiday beach rentals is extremely accommodating and great to work with! The house is decorated and furnished beautifully. Everything is 5-star. Everything is clean and new! 2 fridges and 2 dishwashers just on the 1st floor kitchen made it so convenient for our large group. The kids enjoyed the pool in the morning, and then the beach in the afternoon. It is just a perfect setup and you will not be disappointed!

Great property!
We really enjoyed our time here at the Hammerhead property, even if it was during the early part of the coronavirus pandemic. We loved the home so much. I don’t know that we even made it to all rooms in the home. 13 of us had plenty of room. The fit and finish was great. Near brand new home and we couldn’t have asked for better location on the beach and near stores, etc. We had to cook every day and making food for this many was a breeze. The only thing I wish would’ve been better was better communication with regard to the pool/hot tub. We figured it out but it was suboptimal. Altogether, a really great time in PCB, FLA!
