Would stay here again

The location was great-right by the road that leads to the beach. The kitchen was fully stocked. The back yard was fully fenced-easy for the dogs. Plenty of room-the rooms and bathrooms were a great size. The only thing I would change/improve would be the mattress on the pull out couch-the current is not something I would recommend sleeping on.

Soo much fun!

We visit SGI every year with 3-4 families and pick a different house each trip. Buddha Beach is now our number one favorite!! The property had everything we needed and more for a relaxing and super fun trip with 3 families and our 4-legged buddy. Although not on the beach, its a super short walk and there's a wagon to tote all your things. Would absolutely stay here again!!! Thanks so much!!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Buddha Beach for a month and it was just the perfect house! The beds were comfy and the porch, which wraps around 3/4th of the house, helped immerse us into the island life. The home has everything you could need to enjoy your stay at SGI!

The furniture and decor is very nice. The outdoors area is extremely nice and well landscaped. We had no issues with the rental, only the pool servicing company that lacks professionalism and courtesy.

With lots of beach gear, bikes and an awesome pool, all you need to do is bring yourself and maybe a few extra rolls of toilet paper! We can’t wait for year 4!

Nice Stay with Minor Issues

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice stay at Buddha Beach after minor issues were resolved. Upon arrival the home was not cooling and the top floor did not have power. The property management company quickly responded but it did not change the fact that it was HOT in JULY. The home was nicely furnished and the pool was wonderful. We did have to ask for the pool light to be repaired during our stay. The home is a decent walk to the beach.

The only critique that I could possibly give would be that I wished the living room furniture was more comfortable and the cleaning was not great prior to our visit.

Our whole week was Zen at Buddha Beach!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the best week staying at Buddha Beach! The location was perfect, only a short walk to the Beach access ramp. The pool and lower deck area was fabulous, we enjoyed grilling and hanging out here at night. Don’t worry about bringing a beach chair, they had 10 plus chairs to choose from. They also had lots of Beach toys, games and umbrellas to use during your stay. Everything you need for a beach vacation, they had! The only thing I would recommend is to bring extra paper towels, toilet paper and laundry detergent. They supplied a little bit of each but depending on your group you may need to bring extra. Overall, we had a wonderful trip! We can’t wait to come back and visit again next year.
