Family vacation

The cabin was clean, comfortable, and well equipped for every one that was there. Whether it was our three year old or my in-laws, everyone had a great time and felt relaxed in the cabin. There were so many small touches, like safety clips available to lock up any cupboards, and a potty training seat to make us feel safe.

Comfortable and relaxing stay

Our family of 4 had a lovely stay here and would happily return one day. The beds were comfortable with spare linens available, the reclining couch was a hit and the bathtub exceptional. The place is in great condition and a short walk from the beach. We enjoyed the bbq and walks, as well as nearby mini golf. Even though the weather was a bit mixed, we had a great vacation because this place was so lovely.

Great for little kids

The cabin was as advertised and very clean. Super short walk to the beach with a wagon. The kids liked the yard. In the house you'll just be moving a couple of breakable items up high for under 3's and you're set. The host responds to messages within hours every time and has a good knowledge of local activities to try out. The bedrooms basically do not heat up at all, even in the height of summer, because of the forest shade.

Two year old and two couples

We had a lovely visit with our son who is two and my in laws. There were helpful little touches to the place, like a high chair, a toilet seat for potty training and three little step stools for my son to reach the taps/sink. The deck had an outdoor bin full of beach toys, bubbles and two camping chairs. The wagon came in handy to get us and my toddler to and from the beach. We had everything we needed and Monica was always helpful via messaging if needed.

Bungalow by the beach

This was our second time staying at the Tanglewood complex, we enjoy it as all of the units are on a quiet lane tucked in the forest and very close to the beach. No through traffic, overall quiet spot and great for the kids to roller skate or scooter around. Close to shopping and mini golf and nearby parks and trails. Some scheduled strata maintenance was unfortunately underway during our stay- and the generator was hooked up to our unit, pressure washing through the day was intrusive. The unit was small yet cozy and provided just enough space for our family of 4. We unfortunately could not work the fireplace and the BBQ needed some heavy cleaning before use.

Monica was a stellar host and amazing at communicating before and after our stay. She made sure we were situated and ensured we had everything we needed. The location of this property is great for families and the access to the private beach was a highlight!

Well appointed property, gracious host

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. The home is clean, modern and quiet, with a very well equipped kitchen and BBQ, and a great air conditioning unit that was particularly appreciated given our summer stay. The property is a short walk from the beach, and we preferred the location to being closer to beachside in the area because it is more quiet, while being accessible to the waterfront. Our host communicated kindly, professionally, and was very responsive to questions, attending to some specific questions/accommodations relating to arrival and departure given the fact that I was traveling with older parents. We very much enjoyed our stay, and would recommend this property.
