Jul 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My husband and I chose this beautiful property for a quiet get away. We settled right in and enjoyed our anniversary weekend at the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and only a black from the beach. The house was clean and looked exactly like the pictures. My only complaint is that we had to leave. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/961e2159-c1df-42d9-a602-15ff44fd3c2a-1753123245745.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ac67740b-16d5-4433-9c1d-7453b044fb7d-1753123246999.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c0bdce22-defa-455c-924f-03e48181e71e-1753123245128.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ec7696f8-b8e6-41df-bf00-0e306c9eb531-1753123245209.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### ashley h.
