This was our first vacation to The Beach Club. It is a completely different feeling from other beach vacations we have experienced. It is about 20 minutes away from grocery stores, restaurants, souvenir shops and the family activities that typically line the streets of beach communities. You enter the gate and have a quiet, peaceful vacation. We cooked each night in a very well stocked kitchen. There were plenty of dishes, utensils, sharp cooking knives and clean pots and pans. The private pool was perfect to keep cool and the laundry room was stocked with beach towels. The house is clean and spacious with a large kitchen area for multiple cooks. Every light switch is labeled so you are not trying to remember which is for each light. The beach was about a 5 minutes walk away and there are beach wagons, beach toys, an umbrella and nice beach chairs in one of the bedroom closets. There was plenty of room to set up during the day. We also loved going to the beach in the evening for sunset when there were very few people there. In the evenings, we walked to the food truck/village area (about 5 minutes in the other direction) where there are picnic tables, food trucks, music, and kids activities. One of the nights was foam night and the kids were having a ball running through the foam. It just reminded me of a neighborhood party where the kids had fun and parents could sit and watch but it was all small enough to keep track of the kids and feel safe. We got ice cream at the ice cream shop. There also was a village restaurant, but we did not eat there. Communication with the owner was excellent. Any questions I had were answered same day, usually within hours. If you are looking for a busy, activity filled, dining out every meal vacation, this might not be for you. But if you want a family friendly, relaxing beach vacation without the crowds, this is it! Be sure to get your groceries before you arrive and bring shampoo/conditioner, dishwasher pods, paper towels and extra toilet paper as only a starter set is provided. There is a little store a very short drive away for ice and essentials. Highly recommended!
