Great spot!

Very cute, clean and welcoming rental property in a gated community. Easy access to the two pools and beach. The residences (not sure what to call them as some are small homes, some park model trailers etc. ) on Nettles Island are close together which was a concern but it was very quiet and everyone was friendly. Hosts have gone out of their way to make sure you have what you need. There is a restaurant and a small grocery store and fishing access as well as a boat ramp. We will definitely stay again when we are in the area.

Wonderful Charming Place!

We had a great experience with this property! Communication was excellent, check in a breeze and the house was decorated beautifully with the beach theme. We loved the golf cart and the pools at this property. Having a market and restaurant within a short walking distance is a bonus. Jensen Beach is a great spot- would highly recommend this rental!
