Great vacation
Great little vacation home. The only thing I thought was different was the listing made it sound like it was one of the ones that had the Bach directly behind it. It was a five to ten minute walk which was fine was just hoping for on the beach.

Summer vacay
Overall our stay was great!. We just had a couple of minor issues but management took care of it quickly. The beach was walkable, but if you cannot walk a long way like me you can also park by the beach in the back of the complex which was very convenient. Loved that the free beach umbrella and chair service was available for us to use. We would definitely love to come back again!

Nicely Decorated Rental Home
The place we stayed was clean and nicely decorated. The walk to the beach was about 7 minutes which isn't that bad, but the description and the map shown on the website were not really accurate. It was nice to be able to walk to some of the stores around the property. The communication with the property manager was fine. It's much faster getting an answer when you call than leaving a message via VRBO.

Cozy get away
The unit was close to so many places and about a 8 minute walk to the beach . We didn’t mind the walk because the scenery was beautiful, there’s a cross walk with a bunch of turtles the kids loved ! Loved that we got two beach chairs with the rental at the beach . They had all pots we needed to cook and even an outdoor grill . The rooms are super cute and the beds were soooooo comfy we slept so good and usually we don’t . We would suggest this rental to the next person !

Everything was awesome. Only 2 feedback - The house was clean except for the floor that would make your foot Go dirty but we used the flip flops. And the bunkbed was quite noisy to sleep on. Kitchen and Bath was well equipped. it is a beautifully decorated house!

Overall really great
Upon arrival, some hair in the bathtub and something bloody looking in the corner of the master bath by the toilet was there. There were plenty of bath towels available and everything we needed to make and eat meals there. (7 of us) It was smaller than expected for 7 people (44, 35, 17, 12, 11, 11, and 9yo) The location was great! Close to one cold pool, and one warmer pool, and a short walk to the beach. Beautiful area on a lake, so our children also went fishing at the lake. Short walk to a candy shop, ice cream shop, and beach store! Property manager answered all questions very promptly

Quick Getaway
We wanted a quick getaway. We had hoped to be closer to the beach than we were. When we originally booked, the listing showed us right on the beach which is what made us book. We made the best of it and enjoyed our time. The unit was the perfect size for our group.

My family and I greatly enjoyed our stay at SouthBay #27. It was well-equipped with all of our needs, including lots of beach accessories (chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, floats) in the the outdoor storage room. The free beach service (2 chairs and one umbrella) was also very nice! We would definitely want to stay here again!
