Great Place

The only thing that could have been better were the TV's in the bedroom, we could not get them to work. Everything else was awesome and everyone had a great time.

Great Quality Time in Port A

Family and I had a great time at this beautiful home. Close to beach, fishing, shopping. Wish we had more time to spend there. Home was very spacious and we had everything we needed. Host is exceptional, she answered all all our questions very promptly and was very accommodating. Only concern was the double bed in living room, seemed like it had not been cleaned from prior uses and not very comfy. Unfortunately, we were not able to use it. Either than that, it was a great home away from home! Highly recommend it!

Wonderful extended weekend

The house has everything needed. Other than a slight issue with the refrigerator the property was fantastic. The owner was responsive, the amenities on the property allowed for a fun time while waiting for activities or food. The location is perfect located not far from food, entertainment, and the beach. Would recommend anyone to look into this property.

Great Stay

The house layout was great for our family, everyone had plenty of space, the beds were comfortable and we loved playing shuffleboard and watching movies at night. The boys enjoyed the catch and release pond and caught several fish. The house is very close with easy access to the beach as well as anything in town. The host was great to work with and very responsive.

Port A stay

This was an amazing experience and we would definitely book it again! The location was amazing as we were close to the beach and the surrounding shopping stores. Kristin, our coordinator and booking agent was very attentive, caring and communicative! Thank you so much Kristin for an amazing time and keeping the lines open for me and the family! Until next time

Fun week

The property was as shown in the photos. Great amount of space for the 6 of us. Super easy to get into town for meals, and the kitchen was well equiped. The complex pool is super small. The environment was family friendly.

A Shore Bet

Great overall stay, the bedroom space, 3 bathrooms and layout were perfect for the 6 of us to stay comfortable for the week. The floors had barely been swept when we got there and there was no dust pan in the house so we had to go buy one to keep it tidy while we were there. The shuffle board and foosball table were great to have as well. Easy location to get around town or to the beach with a golf cart rental.

Family Summer Vacation

Condo was very nice and spacious. Kiddos loved the fooze ball and shuffle board table's and the outdoor TV. Outdoor shower was great after a trip to the beach. We wish the pool had been bigger, especially since all the condos in that community share that one pool, but all in all, it was very nice. We would rent again.

Best weekend ever

Kristin has a gorgeous home, at a perfect location! I rented this house for a girls trip and it was the best weekend ever! They were so much space, and it was decorated so perfectly! We loved the downstairs patio that had a nice view. That location was perfect and it was not far from the beach at all. I would highly recommend staying here, and I will definitely be returning.

A Shore Bet is definitely a sure bet!

Loved this house! The homeowner and property manager were so incredibly nice and quick to respond to any questions we had. There are 3 King beds which is unheard of with vacation rentals so that was great for our group. There aren't closets but they have hooks on the doors for you to hang your clothes. All of the little touches were provided. Great view and location. We will definitely rent again!

Great Spring Break

Our family loved A Shore Bet during Spring Break! The house was super clean and plenty of beds/bathrooms and lounge areas for our group of 7. (2 adults and 5 kids). The shuffleboard and and foosball were great fun also, especially in the evenings and cooler mornings. It was a great location in the neighborhood, facing the fishing pond. Very close to the beach, we drove our car but beach cart would have been great too! Kristin was a great hostess! We would definitely stay here again!
