Excellent Vacation- Thank You Much!!

We have stayed in the Emerald Shores neighborhood for many years, and this was the first time in this home. Tucked away in the corner, the house was perfect for our needs. One issue with the HVAC on a Sunday night, and the Management Team was all over it within minutes. Great communication and superb location make this a great house for a vacation.

Beach Trip!!

The cottage is breathtaking! From the arrival through the checkin/checkout processes, all were above average. The only detractors from what otherwise would have been a 5-Star rating are the carpet and the grill gas tank was completely empty. I would be willing to pay a slightly more for gas for the grill. Everything else was very enjoyable. The short walk to the beach and the surrounding area was phenomenal!

Great Vacation House for Large Family

This was a wonderful house for our extended family of 8. It is just across the street from the heated pool and about a 10 minute walk to the beach. It had great space for meals and spending time together. Great place!

Great stay for family gathering

Beautiful location, super clean property. It was very comfortable for 8 adults (including 4 senior citizens) and 2 children (3, 5). Easy to walk to the beach with the kids; the beach was fantastic. The kids appreciated the sand toys that were available at the house to take along, too. Well-equipped kitchen that made Thanksgiving food preparation much easier. There was plenty of parking available, and it was quiet and peaceful in the neighborhood during our stay. Very timely communication from property management when we had questions. It would have been helpful to have somewhat clearer directions for arriving at the back gate to the community instead of the front gate which was not accessible with code. We would stay here again without a doubt, really great!

Great Vacation Home

The house is great and is at a great location. Pool right across the street and a very short walk to the beach. Bring extra toilet paper and trash bags. Also the dryer takes a couple of times to dry clothes. Overall it’s a great place and we would stay again if we came back.

Nice house and safe neighborhood

We enjoyed our stay and liked the beach equipment deal. The worse part was the "private beach" where we couldn't even see the water. There were so many expensive beach rentals set up in front that we were stuck at the back. We only went once, then started driving to better beach areas. I also had an issue with reaching the number listed to report issues. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there.

Family vacation 2022

The property was everything the listing said it would be. We really enjoyed our stay after we were able to get into this gated community. The codes we were sent to open the main gate didn't work and when I messaged the company I didn't get a reply. Someone that works for the community driving a golf cart gave us the codes needed. After that hiccup everything was wonderful. We would definitely stay here again.
