Great location on the beach!

This house has a great view and is a very short distance from the sand. The interior and decking are very nice and comfortable and the kitchen is huge! My family truly enjoyed our stay here and will be coming back in the future.

Excellent location and great amenities

Three families, 6 adults and 6 kids stayed at this property for 5 nights in December and had a great time. The property is located by the beach and has all the amenities as listed online. Everything we needed was available at the property. The kids really enjoyed the hot tub and easy access to the beach. My only complaint was with the room in the lower level (2nd floor) which had no windows and was kind of muggy even with AC turned on. The floors are high and that makes someone old or with physical condition tough time to climb up. An elevator would be great add, similar to one in the adjacent property

Cleanest Home i have ever been too.

By far the cleanest property i have ever stayed at. Easy check in and out process. Beautiful views. It is exactly like the pictures. It wasnt a problem but something i didnt realize. On the second level the kichen is seperate from the bedrooms. We had 10 adults and a toddler and had more than enough room. Plenty of towels and dishware. Phenominal air conditioner. I wanted to bring the kitchen island/table home with me. We enjoyed the second level so much. Great beach access. So thankful for the outdoor shower and water hoses on every level. You need a 4 wheel drive or at the minimum front wheel drive to get in and out. We got stuck a couple times. Wonderful people helped us get out. Once we figured out that you had to come in pretty hot and get a good run we were good to go. The neighbors said it was from the trash trucks. They have really messed up the drive. The stairs..oh dear the stairs. Im 51 and they kicked my tail. But once your up the view makes up for it. The neighbors to east are the best. I highly recommend this property. We only lost power once for a few hours the last night we were there. It was the whole island. We did family pictures on the beach our last day. If you are looking for a true beach house this is it. And the sand/grass spurs do suck....just wear your shoes in the yard and you are golden. So many food options close by and the ferry was awesome. Very worth every cent. Did i mention how clean it was?

We had an amazing stay.... already thinking when to rent it again... wished we could have stayed longer. We all loved the middle deck with the bar, hot tub and small kitchen.The only small picky thing was that the door code didnt work.. but just used the keys in the lock box!!!

Great Times at Waves & Whiskey

My family had a great experience at Waves & Whiskey! The location on the beach is second to none. The house was great with plenty of outdoor spaces and plenty of room for our family. We loved the outdoor shower as well.

True On the Beach Experience

If you're looking for a true in the beach vacation, look no further. Wake up to a sunrise on the deck, walk to the beach and hangout for the day, enjoy the views in the evening, watch movies at night in front of the massive outdoor bar area or while relaxing in the hot tub. Great house, fun location!

Excellent - 5 Stars

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Waves and Whiskey! The private access to the beach was a game-changer — it made everything so convenient and allowed us to spend hours by the water without any hassle. The location is perfect, offering breathtaking views right from the property. The downstairs room was fantastic for the kids, giving them their own space to hang out and enjoy the beach vibe. We especially loved the kitchen on the bottom floor, which made it super easy and convenient to relax and hang at the bar. There's truly nothing better than soaking in a hot tub while taking in the incredible view of the ocean. It was the perfect way to unwind after a day on the beach. Overall, Waves and Whiskey exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to come back. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing, beachside escape!

Great Home and Location

We absolutely loved Waves & Whiskey. It is in a great location right on the beach. It was so relaxing to sit on the balcony in the morning and have coffee. Besides the beach, there are several things to do in the area that are not crazy expensive. We will be back again!
