This property was exactly what we thought it was. Great price for an excellent location. Pool was nice and was walking distance to the beach. Really close to rental places as well. Definitely would stay again.

Very well maintained property and all was as advertised. Booking, check-in, and access to customer service were all excellent in terms of knowledge and customer service.

8/10

The property was nice and located in a nice neighborhood. There wasn't a hot tub which we were looking forward to. It's also 2 separate units that can be rented out as 1. The bottom unit is completely closed off from the top floor, so you have to go outside and access stairs to get into the top unit. We'd stay again.

We have stayed at this house before as we love the location and the space/pool. The only thing was the water pressure was low when showering and the pool was too hot at times. We had a great time and hope to be back!!

My family and I stayed at this condo this week in early had an absolutely wonderful time. The condo itself is nicely decorated , with a nicely stocked kitchen, which was important to me as we planned to eat in for many meals. We really enjoyed with easy access beach. The house nicely and had a wonderful pool where we spent many hours. We enjoyed Overall this was one of the best, most relaxing Thank you.

Great location, very close to the beach literally a 2 min walk! Pool was great, very spacious. However the house does need a lot of improvements starting with the restrooms, very old shower heads literally felt like no water was coming out. Cleanliness wasn’t great, 2nd bedroom sheets were stain but my guess is because of how old the are stains don’t wash off.

This house was perfect for us. Everything was clean and very well kept. The house actually has two separate living areas, which was very nice for our group. Location was great also. I would say they could improve a bit on supplies in the house. Also, grill was junk and didn't know it until we had already bought food for the grill. But overall it was a great place to stay and would highly recommend it. SPI was a pleasure to work with and made everything so easy for us.

This property met our family of eights needs very nicely. It was close to the beach, had four bedrooms that slept everyone very comfortably and the rental company had great customer service. Had to call them a couple times and they were very responsive. Property itself is a no frills property. Amenities, furniture and physical space are all made for the beach, rough short term renters and lots of wear and tear. If you're looking for something posh this isn't your property. Kids loved the pool as did the adults. The separate downstairs suite was great for the grandparents.

This house was great in the fact that it was very spacious for a family/friends. Some things you'll need to bring yourself, because it was not provided: salt, pepper, coffee filters, coffee, trash bags, paper towels, cleaning spray (for counters and whatnot). Those are just some items I'm used to seeing at rental homes that were not provided here. The freezer takes a long time to freeze your items, so just keep that in mind. Overall, this was a decent house in a great location... everything is at your fingertips.

I was very disappointed when we got to the house because it was not clean and I called several times before my arrival to make sure the house was clean sanitized due to COVID-19. The floors were not cleaned you could see hairs all over the place from the prior guest and dead bugs on the wall. The kitchen cabinets were dirty and full of greasy as well as all the fans in the house were very dirty. The bathrooms were not clean either and you can tell the cleaning crew does not care to clean the base boards or doors because they were filthy. My daughter and I had to disinfectant the bathrooms to feel a bit more comfortable. I did call the office about this issues and a lady came over very quickly and just cleaned the floors again and left. The Pool was the only thing that was ok because even the balcony was full or hair and bottle caps. It's a very cute house and should be better taken care of because now it needs a lot of up keep. We should get our cleaning fee back because we had to clean during our vacation. I hope you take my feedback into consideration and make sure tour cleaning crew is doing their jobs properly especially during these Covid-19 times.

Older, cute, pretty place. Nice furniture. Spacious kitchen. Great pool. But, the beds/mattresses are AWFUL. They are some type of memory foam and they are either very old, or very cheap; be prepared to sink in and also sweat all night. All the rooms have same mattresses. Air flow through the rooms isn't very cool. It was hard to get cool/comfortable. Be mindful that the refrigerator temp cannot be touched, and your food won't be cool until 24 hours after arriving. Water pressure is minimal. BBQ pit was half broken. We could only cook food on one side which took twice as long. The chairs at the pool had some gross white stuff on them (were not cleaned before we arrived apparently) The front door was near impossible to open. We would just walk to the back sliding door and get downstairs that way. We also lost hot water on the 3rd day. The maintenance guy couldn't fix it and the plumbers couldn't come out until the next day (check out day for us) They fixed it about 30 minutes before we had to check out. No showers for over a day. We were somewhat compensated, thankfully. But it was inconvenient for sure. Check in is 4pm; check out is 10 am. So you don't really get 3 full days. All in all, we enjoyed our time in the pool; we will use SPI Rentals in the future but not for this home.

I really wanted to leave a great review considering SPI was very helpful and pleasant with rescheduling our vacation from last year. Check in was extremely easy. Upon arrival to the house a toilet was out at the curb next to our house the entire stay. The house was clean at first, but within hours of being there a sewage smell occurred and stayed the duration of our stay. At times it was unbearable to where we had to keep doors open. It was coming from the spare bathroom where the water leaked the entire time from the bottom of the toilet. The bathroom stayed wet constantly. We had towels down to absorb, but the washing machine was not efficient for use for more that 4 towels to be washed at a time. Be prepared to not have a dryer available. Clothes and towels never completely dried even after 4 hours in the dryer. We ended up hanging things outside to complete drying. Not a big deal, but if you have kids, a leaky toilet and in and out of the pool it becomes taxing when trying to keep up with towels. The pictures are a bit misleading of the house. The home is not in that great of shape. We paid about $4000 for 5 days and in my opinion, I could have and probably should have gone to a 5-star resort for that amount. The pool was a saving grace for the kids and the fact that it was heated was a plus. I do not recommend this rental and will never rent again. I know pictures are sometimes deceiving, but this was downright dishonest.

We had a small issue with the keyless entry, called SPI and within minutes they had someone onsite and fixed quickly. No other issues. The house shows some wear but we weren't there very much so it had no affect on our stay. The location was great as well.

The place was relatively clean but lacks cooking utensils. The space was adequate for us. The pool was great for the kids and used everyday including when it turned cold because the pool was heated. Nice having a washer and dryer. Location was good, close to many restaurants, block away from the beach. All in all it was a good trip.

First.. Easy check in without any issues. Then the location was great with access to the beach and to the main road. The most important thing about this trip was how much room my family had with this beach house. Will definitely be back.

This rental was by far the best where my family and I have stayed. The cleanliness of the whole house was excellent, the pool was pristine and clean. And the staff was really nice and friendly always checking on us and our stay at this house. We are definitely going back on our next vacation. This company is really professional.a 5 star rating
