We loved our time at this location. Quiet and friendly neighborhood. Even without being on the shore you can hear the waves at night and the night sky was beautiful without light pollution. Would highly recommend staying at any home owned and maintained by this couple.

This was our second trip to the flip flop hideaway.

We love this house and area. The neighbors are friendly, it has cool white squirrels and the beach is very close. We made some excellent dinners and caught some fish. Unfortunately we had to leave early due to the hurricane. The hosts went out of their way help and refund some of the fees. I hope to return soon. You can’t go wrong staying here!

We absolutely loved this house!!

We stayed at the flip flop hideaway for a week in March. The house was furnished with every thing you could want. Perfectly clean and in a great location. The beach is only about a five minute walk. There were many times while on the beach there was not another person for as far as I could see. Good neighbors, good restaurants, nice house in a great location. What more can you ask for. We hope to return.

Better than we expected. Everything to keep us all happy. Immaculate with lots of possibilities for indoor entertainment had we needed it. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals. Good biking and walking path. Close to beach access. Canal made for easy access to open water for paddle boards. Extraordinary sunset on the beach to top it all off!!!

A great house

We stayed at the Flip-Flop Hideaway. It was minutes to the beach we loved the location! The house was wonder full: loved the covered car port kept the car cool all day! The house had tons of games, books, CDs and some great records that you can play on the record player, football, beach chart /toys/and chairs, yard games like can jam and corn hole, a karaoke machine, and a ping pong table. So fun and cool! Lots of bathrooms and showers! It was just my family of 4 and it felt huge but homey with all the bedrooms just off the Livingroom the kids felt safe and close to us but slept happy in their own rooms. Our Host was wonderful (Thank you Lisa!) Loved the tiki hut near by and we eat second year in a row at Trident -delicious! My favorite activity is always the Gulf Specimen Marine Lab. A great house for our trip.

Awesome house for a family

As the family and I drove down the island to the house we immediately got a safe and comforting feeling. We noticed that there wasn't much to attract a lot of unnecessary traffic to the area which was perfect for our secluded vacation. Once entering the house we found that it was very clean and thought out for a vacation property. There were many games for the kids to enjoy as well as the rest of the family to spend quality time together. This house had all of the amenities you can think of from the pots, pans and seasonings to the bathroom supplies we always seem to forget when traveling. Although the fishing in the area was not as enjoyable as we would have hoped, the family and I had an absolute blast with the ping pong table and other outdoor games provided with the rental. 5 stars

Truly special place

We had an amazing stay at Flip Flop Hideaway! The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock and the house was comfy for our family. We have stayed at many rentals and never have visited one that was so thoroughly stocked. The hosts really go above and beyond to make you comfortable. FYI - you will want to stop and get groceries on your way in as there is not a grocery store nearby. We realized we forgot coffee and were worried about it but when we got to the house the host had a variety for us to use thankfully! The walk to the beach was short and easy for our five year old. The beach is beautiful - calm water, soft sand, no crowds and amazing sunsets. We brought two dogs and it wasn’t stressful as the yard is fenced in (besides the waterline - we brought a long lead to keep our youngest dog out of the water). We enjoyed the fire pit every night under the stars and coffee every morning on the peaceful porch. The kids caught a few fish but, after talking to the neighbors, they mentioned the fishing is really good starting in April. If you’re looking for an off the grid, peaceful family vacation this house and area is perfect!

We had a great stay at Flip Flop Hideaway. As others mentioned, house was very clean and easy walk to beach. Weather was very good for our trip, but the house had plenty of room and plenty of things to do for entertainment even if we’d had rain days. We had five adults and a three year old, and never felt crowded. Lisa was a very nice and very responsive host.

Nice cottage on alligator point, close to beach access with very quiet beaches and a few great restaurants within a 30 minute drive. If you need a break from the fast paced every day to day, stay on alligator point. It was a great place but it does have a musty odor so I couldn’t give it a 5 star. The owners were very helpful with our stay.

This place is in a great location, quick to get to the beach and easy access to the bay via the canal. We will definitely be back. The kitchen is stocked with good quaility cookware and appliances.

Quiet Ocean Stay

This was a spacious, and well equipped home to stay near the beach for our family. Comfortably accommodated 6 of us; 3 adults, 1 teen, and 2 children. Plenty of games and entertainment, and the hosts were very communicative and pleasant to deal with. Thoroughly enjoyed the quiet community and close proximity to the beach.

I loved how fully stocked the kitchen is! Made cooking meals for the family a breeze. The dining table is large enough for family dinners and board games. Two blocks walk away from the beach solves the parking issue :) The units caretakers make huge strides to make sure every detail is taken care of. Our family of 10 felt spaced out and relaxed.will love to come back again!

Great location Great vacation rental

Property was perfect for our family, the property owners go over and beyond to make your stay comfortable and all of the little extras provided were a nice bonus. The property is within walking distance of the public access to beach. Beach is very nice, away from all of the hustle which made it the perfect place for our family to enjoy. The house is on the canal which gave access to fishing right off the dock.
