Beautiful property

Our stay was wonderful and priceless memories were made. We did have a few issues with the amenities (washer was broken and smelled awful, refrigerator does not cool, no blankets for pull out sleepers.) Those things were very important to us but we did not let it ruin our stay. I hope they do better and fix those issues for the next guests.

Thanksgiving

We celebrated Thanksgiving at Port Anaras. Our family of 8 had plenty of room. We didn’t use the pool but it was available and clean. The house its self was very clean and well equipped. Everything we needed was right there.

Fantastic property

We visited over the Sandfest weekend. The property was clean and as described. The carriage house was lovely - it’s like a separate (but adjoining) 1 bedroom with a sitting area, balcony, bathroom and kitchenette. It was perfect for our group of 6. Three parking passes were more than sufficient. Check in and checkout process was easy. I left my laptop behind and did not realize it until the next morning. A call to the property managers and 30 minutes later they called me back to ask me where to shop it to!! Fabulous service.

Perfect house for a family trip!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: "Popsicles and Flip Flops" was perfect for our extended family vacation! We had 6 adults and 5 kids (ages 11-16). The house was super clean and the beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of room for everyone! It is in a gated subdivision which has "quiet hours" between 10pm - 8am, which I definitely appreciated! The kids loved the community pool which was just a few houses down from the house. The kitchen was big and fully stocked, which was great as we were able to cook most of our meals there! Good sized dining table and bar stools, so there was plenty of seating. The covered patio and chairs were lovely too. It rained a couple days and it was nice to sit outside and read on the patio. We also used the bbq grill to cook burgers. The beach is just a short drive. The house had everything! There was even a washer/dryer so we could do laundry (a must with the many beach trips and the rain). We were all very pleased with the house's size, cleanliness, comfort and location! The grounds of the community are nicely landscaped and well kept. I would highly recommend this house. The only downside was the WiFi at the house did not work at all and regular cell service was very spotty at the house. It wasn't too big of a deal, but there were times we needed it and had to leave the house to get service. Also, the couches in the carriage house make into beds but they were broken and uncomfortable. Two of our kids were originally going to stay there, but after the first night they moved to the couch/beds in the upstairs bedroom and much preferred that location for their stay!

A bit to small

Since this was a family event, we were hoping the general living area would be more accommodating to gather and relax. Not a lot of room for that. Also pool area could have used a few shade options.

Bigger Than we Expected

The house was wonderful. It was a lot larger than we expected, and the grill was a nice touch. They had all the plates and dishes we needed. Plenty of bathrooms for everyone to get ready, and when we went out, the wonderful island taxi knew exactly where to go. Would 100 percent rent again.

So we couldn’t really go out and fish as much as we wanted to so we wanted to watch movies that i bought but there was no dvd or blue ray provided we just hope our next stay we be better
