Everything was great. Including communication. The pool was huge. Everything was very close so if you needed something it was pretty close to drive to but not close enough to be disturbed by noise.

Large variety of pool floats for all ages. We swam and lounged around and played lots of card games. Moira was very responsive when reaching out with questions.

This was our fifth year staying at this beach house, and it continues to be the perfect spot for our family vacation. There's plenty of room for everyone—whether it's sleeping, relaxing, or playing games together. The backyard pool is a great bonus when we want a break from the beach, and the location is ideal—close to restaurants, entertainment, and everything the area has to offer.The owner is fantastic—always quick to respond and very attentive. We had a small issue during our stay, and someone was there to check it out within just a couple of hours. You really can’t beat that level of service.Highly recommend this home for any family looking for a clean, comfortable, and convenient beach getaway!

Relaxing Retreat, family friendly

We loved our stay at Seaside Serenity. The property is just as it's pictured and more! It's very beautiful and open. It easily fit our family and we were able to entertain with plenty of room. The pool is great and it was nice how close and open to the kitchen, great room, and master bedroom. It made me as a parent at ease with my kids in the pool! The grounds are beautiful with plenty of beautiful flowers and trees. I have stayed at many VRBO's in the past and I can honestly say the owners have put a lot of work into making it feel like home away from home. There are a lot of special touches all around the rental. Moira was such a great hostess and was in constant contact if there was anything we needed she was on top of it! Location is nice and close to beaches. One of our favorites is South Lido! We felt safe and the closest grocery was a 3 minute drive! My family can't wait to come back again! I think this will be a annual rental for us!
