This is the life!

We had the best time at 13 Palms. The house, pool and yard were gorgeous. The house has plenty of space for relaxing in between pool time and trips to the ocean. We rented a golf cart and loved cruising around the neighborhood. The playground nearby was a hidden perk! We will definitely rent here again!

Best beach house

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is by far the nicest beach house our adult familu has ever stayed it. The interior was immaculant and beautiful. The back yard was a vacation oasis in itself. The management company was very responsive with the minor issue we have. I hope to make the house a regular vacation spot.

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: We had a lovely stay with a group of family and friends. Vacation home was very clean, with lots of amenities made available to us. I cooked a beautiful Thanksgiving meal in the well stocked kitchen. Everyone was comfortable, fat, and happy! Home was in a great location, and surrounding neighbors were friendly. Being close to grocery stores and restaurants made it very easy for everyone to get around. We also brought along our family dog and he loved the easy walks to the beach and park, everyone did! A1 property management was very helpful and quick to answer questions even on a busy holiday. Our family made some wonderful and fun memories in this comfortable, and beautiful home. We all decided we will definitely make our way back to this fantastic gem to make more.

Great Summer Family Vacation

Very impressed with the house, everything was very clean, well stocked kitchen, beds were comfortable, provided beach chairs and towels. The pool was a good size and heated, the fire pit and hot tub were also nice. Plenty of seating in the living room for the family to sit and socialize.

Loved the house and backyard area! The primary bedroom mattress wasn't comfortable, the sides felt like you had to get into the middle of the bed or fall off and it was too soft. It wasn't clear how to operate the outside speakers or operate the heated pool and we ran into issues with the main tv. The maint guy was very helpful and professional when he came by. We had a great time overall and it was a nice house for our group. The kitchen worked well and the grill outside was a good size for cooking. The property management company was responsive and very pleasant. Wished there were swim pool noodles to float with in the pool. Thanks!

Perfect Home for a Beach Vacation

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: Our family of 5 & our dog stayed at the property. It was very clean, modern, fully stocked with all the starter supplies needed & close to everything. We had plenty of room (and more) to spread out. The pool was so nice especially after a long hot day of site-seeing. There was plenty of room for parking (including the garage if you choose to). The house is close to a trail so it made walking the dog so much nicer (poop bags & trash cans are located along the way). We had a couple of minor issues that were addressed very quickly. The A1 team was so helpful/friendly. We had a wonderful time & we’re so sad to leave!
