Fantastic stay! This properly is one of the few that are truly dog friendly. We had a small maintenance issue (AC) that was fixed within 30 min of calling on a Sunday night. The house is well equipped and furnished. Would absolutely stay here again!

Good vacation
Overall we had a good vacation. The views from upstairs are beautiful. The pool stayed dirty the 6 days we stayed there. I would ask the owner to upgrade the bedding. It was like laying on concrete slabs. Maybe memory foam toppers. The owner needs to realize that families are there for a great experience. The beds would keeps us from staying there again.

Great house and location
We arrived on Friday afternoon for a weekend wedding. The house was clean and access was easy. The house is newer and well furnished, on a quiet street less than 2 blocks from the beach access. Everything was as described in the listing.
We did have an issue with the air conditioning but the property management company sent someone out right away. If we were to visit again we would bring our own linens, those provided by the linen service are poor quality. Also, a broom or blower to keep the pool deck clear would be helpful. We had a great time, would definitely book again

Great stay, short walk to beach
Plenty of space for our group of 6 adults and 3 dogs. Easy walk to beach. Nice pool. Property is listed as pet friendly but be warned that you will be charged extra for more that 1 pet. In our case it was $150+tax. Contract has clause allowing them to charge up to $500 of you don’t declare the pets.

Perfect in every way!
My husband and I took our three college aged children to Serenity Now to celebrate the end of their exams. The house had absolutely everything we needed, the location was fabulous and the property management company was incredibly efficient. It was a perfect week and perfect place to connect with our children. We rented bikes for the week and only got in the car to go home! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!

Thanksgiving trip
Family of 8 adults and 2 infants. We all fit comfortably in the home. Easy walk to the beach. Would stay at the home again. Communication with property management company was rough compared to renting experiences with individual homeowners. Overall we had a great week and thankful for the home!

Perfect Beach Home
This property was wonderful! The house was decorated beautifully, had a very well equipped kitchen and plenty of space. The jack and Jill bathrooms worked great for our families with children. And just a short walk to the beach! Would definitely recommend!
