Positively in Port A

The HVAC unit was turned off outside when we arrived: it took close to 6 hours for the AC tech to come to the property and fix the problem. The beds weren’t as comfortable as we would have liked. I prefer pillow tops. Other than that, the unit was clean, quiet, and very convenient as we were able to walk the deck straight to the beach.

Just like home

We originally had 4 people scheduled to stay, but one couple could not make it. So for 2 people it felt very spacious. There is a boardwalk over the dunes to the beach that takes about 2 minutes to walk across. The pool is kinda plain but the deck furniture makes it a nice place to hang out. This is a nicely maintained property, I would stay here again.

End of summer trip

Quick getaway before school starts. Was disappointed at first that I couldn’t get a higher floor unit but I’m glad I didn’t. The first floor was perfect and easy access to the beach. The patio overseeing the pool was great as well. Will definitely be back and use this property again.

weekend getaway

We had a nice stay for a long weekend. We did like the that the property was not near town and a overall a quiet property, however the property could have been a little cleaner and we missed not having dark curtains to block out the building lights and lights from the pool.

Peace of the Sea Review

Cleaning crew obviously did not do a thorough check - we found grapes in a corner near the kitchen table and coffee grounds still in the filter in the coffeemaker. Kitchen could have been more equipped - there were no hot pads, no large colander or strainer, no extra large pot for boiling shrimp and fixing gumbo. There were no lids for the 2 pitchers they had for drinks. There were also issues with the gate code for entering the area coming back from the pool, not just for us but for others as well.

Great relaxing place to stay!

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: Very clean and quiet place, close to the ocean. Way quieter than a hotel, and with the extra rooms a lot more private. The kitchen is very nice and having an extra restroom is great
