Anniversary Trip

My husband and I enjoyed our anniversary that we were able to share with our family. The home was beautiful and just as it was reflected on the website. I would definitely like to book again on my next trip to that area. You really thought of everything from dishes to beach accessories. It made our trip really special. Thank you!

Just got Taekwondo Kicks

We just left this house after a taekwondo tournament. There were 4 families, 12 total people, and we fit in the house perfectly with plenty of space! So many accommodations were provided to us!!! We thoroughly enjoyed the large size of the kitchen, plenty of bedrooms & bathrooms, and even an air hockey and ping pong table for the kids to play!

Birthday Vacation Time and R&R

Serenity Beach Home is a spacious location that my family coming from four different locations thoroughly enjoyed! This family friendly birthday location easily accommodated everything the 10 of us wanted to do. We took advantage mostly of the family area and kitchen, backyard pool, and both the screened-in and outdoor patio. Loft had game room feel for kids. The kitchen appliances and coffee accessories with a snack box was an added touch. The location is near great seafood restaurants and multiple beaches. Easy to get in touch with property owners/sponsors. We enjoy family, good food and beach life. This birthday weekend location gets five stars on all of these! Watchout for outside driveway pavement near garage. Slight slant of uneven footing there.

We are a family of 4 from Ohio! We just need to escape the cold sometimes so we created Silvia's Serenity Beach Home! This home is a special family home named after my mother-in-law Silvia who left us at the early age of 56 due to dementia (early onset) we honor her memory with this home created for families to come together and treasure time together.
We miss you grandma Silvia!
