The snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Grouper Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 970 feet out from the Inlet Beach access, it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Grouper Reef is at a depth of 12-21 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Last minute trip

Air conditioner was not working when we arrived. Property Manager quickly got someone to repair. Small grass patch by patio needs to be mowed. We had a great stay and would not hesitate to stay again.

A fun trip!

We enjoyed our stay here! The location was steps from the beach and within walking/biking distance from most shops and restaurants in the area. However, there was ample parking everywhere we went should you choose to drive instead. The beach was gorgeous, but as most other reviews state the non-vendor section was small and filled up quickly. Nearly everyone there had toddlers so that kind of ruined the peaceful, romantic vibe my husband and I were going for. The big staircase down to the beach was cumbersome if you are carrying a lot of heavy items such as chairs. We opted to use the vendor chairs on our final beach day, and it was well worth it. That section of the beach was quieter as well. The bed in the master bedroom was very creaky and shaky every time you moved on it, and the mattress was very uncomfortable. Since it was just my husband and myself staying here, we slept in the other bed for the rest of the trip and did fine. That's something to consider if you are planning to use both beds during your stay. To echo some of the other reviews, they do provide starter sets of amenities (soaps, paper towels, etc) so we brought our own extras to have enough for our entire stay. We don't normally have to think about bringing those items for vacation rentals, but I'm glad they stated that upfront so we could come prepared. Overall, a great trip!

We’ll be back! We LOVED it!

We loved this property! The location is perfect to the beach, pool and into town. It was the best little vacation home for our family. We did hope there would’ve been a few more necessary amenities (toilet paper, paper towel, etc.) but now that we know to order more we will do that for next time. Thank you for a gorgeous stay!

Great location and great relaxing vacation

We had a great time and the location was great. Close walk to the beach and pool and a few really good dinner restaurants. The beach was crowded! You have to claim a spot early in the morning and set out all your gear. The section for residents who didn't want to purchase chairs/umbrellas for the day was small. The house has a hose to wash off the sand so you dont have to wait in the long line at the beach! Overall we had a great trip and would come back!

A suitable beach house

To start I will reiterate my family enjoyed our stay. We had stayed next door to this unit before and we're excited to stay in the area. It functions for what you want it to but some small things here and there knock it down to 4 stars. Both beds' headboards creaked and you felt like the would fall off the frame. There was a triple A battery under the dresser in one bedroom which our child found. Upon picking up the tv remote downstairs when it fell down there was a container of Vaseline under the couch. The 40V battery charger was just left out. The outdoor shower handle is difficult to turn on since the plastic parks broke on the handle. The house next door and some others we've been in supply beach toys and chairs. Others also supply more toilet paper and paper towels. The communication from the management company was often automated and seemed to communicate the same thing multiple times, almost too often. They also don't use VRBO once you book and take you to their own portal which added to the communication inconsistency. All in all, we enjoyed our stay, like I said. And being a critical reviewer I just couldn't give the full 5 stars. Overall a good stay with great potential. Thanks for renting to us!

Construction and a busy beach

Great house! It had everything we needed for the four of us. It would be better if there was a king bed in the larger bedroom. If you like to sleep in or spend time during the day inside the house, be ready for some loud construction. It occurred every day during the week starting at 8 am and sometimes earlier. That was a bummer. The beach was very busy also, as it accommodates not only the neighborhood the house is in, but also the entire seacrest area across the street. If you want to rent umbrellas and chairs for the week, make sure you get them early. Beach service is not included with the rental and can be pretty expensive daily or weekly. Tents are not allowed on the beach, but you can bring your own umbrellas and chairs and put them in the “non-vendor” area (warning: this area is a very small area and fills up quick) Overall a great house in a great area. However, wish I knew what the beach and construction issues were before I rented as this would have definitely affected my decision whether or not to rent this house.

Great little house, very close to the beach.

Perfect little house, close to the beach, in a great location right between Rosemary and Alys. In my opinion the best area on 30A. Great bikes, great gates community. Walking distance to great feels options in Rosemary and Alys. The house was very clean, had everything we needed, however it could use an update to the beds and bedding. Great experience!
