Our stay at the SaltySwan was nothing short of spectacular. The house's exquisite decor and comprehensive amenities made it an ideal retreat for our family of seven. We were particularly impressed with the thoughtful touches, such as the permanent retractable gate at the top of the stairs and an extra gate found in one of the bedrooms. Booking and check-in were seamless and hassle-free. The house's prime location, just a short distance from the beach, made it convenient to access local restaurants, family-friendly activities, and shopping venues. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the SaltySwan and are already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend! ##### Fernando M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Louis W. Dec 30, 2024 ##### Louis W.

Vacation was cut short by Tropical Storm Debby, but would return to the home if the opportunity arose again. Front door lock is very difficult and frustrating to use. Took several tries. I would suggest replacing it. ##### Elizabeth H.
