My family and I take an annual trip and this property has to be so far the best location we have stayed at. From the decor, to the location, to the comfort of the beds/couches.
This was the perfect beach house for our family and grandkids! We had a blast spending time at the beach, which was just a short 5 minute drive and then coming back to enjoy the pool. The house was very clean, plenty of room and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back next year!

We spent a week at the Gnarly Marlin with six adults and four kids (all under the age of 7). Great property with everything we needed. Well appointed kitchen, wonderful swimming pool, and the large tables in the pool area and the dining room were wonderful for our large group. The kiddos enjoyed the TV and the large couch for lounging. Overall a wonderful stay. We will book it again next year.

Our stay was fun however, we had a huge roach and bug problem. They were everywhere in the house. On the walls, on the floor, and all alive. More amenities could definitely have been provided as the description was very vague and one big towel per guest was not enough.

Loved staying in your property. It lacked in some aspects, coffee maker worked off and on until last day then totally quit, we had a small child with us and could not locate a mop or broom to clean up after her. The TVs in the upstairs bedrooms did not have connections to internet so could not be used, the door going to the upstairs deck from living room was very difficult to shut and the light in the pool did not work.
Property was great great location. Pool was awesome. We had a great time. Thank you. You too Vrbo and host.

Reviewer Comments:
Helpful customer service during booking and leaving with an extended checkout, but was a bit disappointed on the cleanliness. Kitchen had large cockroaches. On several occasions when walking into the kitchen area there were large roaches crawling around. This made it uncomfortable to leave even packaged food on counters or cabinets. Due to the short stay and lack of time we just decided to avoid the kitchen. Great location, close to everything, and not in a busy traffic area. Unfortunately for us we didn’t get to fully enjoy, but if cleaned better it’s an enjoyable place. Therefore, I would recommend to a friend with hopes for a cleaner environment.

We mainly booked this house for the heated pool since spring break is known for being chilly. the house was so nice and comfortable. there is plenty of room for your party and extra guests if you have some drop in. We will book this property again. the only down side we could find is the water heater is a bit small for a three bedroom house.

The Gnarly Marlin by far met my expectations, very clean, spacious for number of family members who attended. Pool was clean which is a must have for me and my family. The only issue i had was i needed to make sure all doors were locked downstairs due to design of home, but i would give this home 5 stars.
Maintenance crew was on the air conditioner job for 7 hours but fixed a problem that had reported by another group. Fire alarms needed new batteries at 4 am reported around 10 and crew was on the spot. Thank you. We had a great time! Will stay again as this was #2 time to stay here.

Loved everything about this place!! Great location, very quiet and peaceful. Right in the middle of everything. Close to the beach, close to the middle of town. The house was beautiful and the pool was a hit with the whole family. I noticed it was larger than a lot of the other homes pools. We have been going to Port A for over 25 yrs and this place was by far our favorite.
