Relaxing, well-equipped, clean, beautiful view!

Our 13-member family met and gathered here for Thanksgiving and found it well-equipped for our heavy baking/prep needs, very clean and new, comfortable and with the BEST view on beach-front property. Highly recommend for a group of 10 to up to 24.

Wonderful getaway

This property was amazing! Right on the beach, very clean, comfortable beds and pillows, plenty of towels, kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook, deck was very large with comfortable seating, air conditioner worked great. We had such a great time here and would go back in a heartbeat! There were 3 families, 10 kids ages 12-18, 6 adults, plenty of room to spread out.

Great Stay

We had a great time and the house was very comfortable. Great view of the beach but at high tide there is no beach. Might need a new refrigerator though. We got up in the morning and our stuff still was not as cold as it should’ve been. Overall a great place to stay

Beach Birthday

Perfect Beach House

We are a group of 20 women who went to high school together. We been doing a weekend on Boliver for 11 years now. This was the best beach cabin we’ve rented so far. Plenty of room and proximity to the beach was amazing. We plan on renting this again next year. Many of us are at or near 60, so the absence of bunk beds is a must. Also the cargo elevator is a must. Great overall beach house.

Great Place, neighbors left a bit to be desired.

We had a great family stay at Serenity. House is really well appointed and everything thought of. We had some issues with some of the other people staying in the other houses - late and loud parties, fireworks very late at night. Other than that place was great.

Great for families

This is a great home for families. Adults were able to stay downstairs and the children ruled upstairs! Well stocked spices and pots and pans helped us feed many mouths. The gate lock was rusted and a little difficult to use at times. Also, I just want to reiterate that older folks may have issues with stairs going up to the house, so it's not accessible in that way. This is pretty clear from the images, so no knock on the hosts here! Overall a great location and fun time for all.

The house has a great set up. The deck looking directly out to the Gulf with several Chaise Lounges was a great place to relax and visit once the children were in bed for the night. There was more than enough seating both inside and outside so that we were always very comfortable.

Amazing spot for multiple families

We had 4 families stay and there was plenty of room for everyone! This is one of those rare occurrences where the pictures don’t do it justice! The beach is so close to the house and the panoramic views are incredible. Porch was our favorite hang out spot. The house is very spacious and not cluttered at all. Plenty of kitchen utensils and appliances to cook with. Even had kids silverware, plates, bowls and cups! Very kid friendly. Steps from the sand. We will be back!
