It was a wonderful experience! The kids loved the decor, the location was great. The pool was also a hit, we would definitely stay there again.
Grandson loved the safari inside focus. Love Tiki room under stairs. Only negative is that the Bunk beds are hard along with the pillows. Would recommend to others.

We had a great time at this rental. It was very clean and super close to whitecap beach where we could just walk to it. If I were to be picky, I would say adding a door to the bunk room would be beneficial as well as adding lots more drying hooks! But other than those things I would highly recommend this rental as well as the company to rent it through.

It rained for most of our trip but we still had lots of fun running back and forth to the beach when the sun would come out. Shopping and eating close by. The mosquitoes were horrible around the property when we went in early September but could have been because of the rain. The kids loved the themed jungle room, and both play areas. Definitely will be back!

The Safari condo was wonderful ! We let it be a surprise for the kids, and the kids and they absolutely loved it. The pool was perfect for them too. The only negative thing we could say is you have to pretty much think of everything to bring, or purchase from the store. Such as Body wash, shampoo conditioner, salt and pepper, beach towels etc. Be sure to come prepared.

The Surfari was amazing! The kids couldn't get enough of the tiki hut. The location was perfect, the beds were comfortable and the house was very clean! My only complaint was a few of the bedroom plugs were not working but that would not stop me from giving this place 5 stars! The area was great and easy walking distant to the beach. It was perfect for our weekend getaway with the family. Honestly can not say enough good things. We will definitely be back! Thank you for having us ❤️

Reviewer Comments:
We had a blast at this rental! It was perfect for the kids. They especially enjoyed having their own hidden room under the stairs. The decor was awesome. The location was perfect - right across the street from the beach and near the public parking/beach access point. We also could have easily walked to the beach if we wanted to. The pool area and playground were AMAZING and the neighbors/other visitors were so friendly. The maintenance staff was very quick to replace the smoke detector batteries when they started beeping after hours. We absolutely loved staying here and can’t wait to stay here again in the future!
