Doesn’t get better than this!
It doesn’t get better than this rental home. And home is how it felt. The house was stocked with everything you could possibly need on vacation, expansive spaces, beautifully decorated and superbly comfortable inside and out. The view is incomparable! We saw dolphins and a few reef sharks during the day and starred at the stars at night. The hosts are as good as it gets. They were incredibly thoughtful in helping us kick start two birthday celebrations, making for an outstanding experience from beginning to end. We are already planning a trip back!

Perfectly located house on the beach that was very clean and quiet!
We stayed in November 2021 for five days. We had an absolutely amazing stay! The house was in a perfect location: right on the beach in a quieter part of the area, with no house in the lot directly to one side because it was a public beach access, so there was extra privacy because of that. The house was exactly as it was described and shown in the photos. It was very clean and perfectly maintained, with amazingly views. There were beach supplies on hand, a well-stocked kitchen, the bed was comfortable, the wifi worked well, and Netflix was ready on the main TV. Ingrid was an awesome host who checked in on us to make sure that everything was fine. She was very responsive every time we asked a question, and she is very professional and very friendly. We had no problems at all during our stay. We thank you for being so very accommodating to us. Everything was perfect and we will never forget our stay! We definitely hope to come back here again!

NOTE to future guests!! This listing does NOT include Sheets for the Beds or Towels!!!! I did not notice this when I reserved it and I thinks it's a very important detail. We had to go out late at night to buy these items and that was Expensive. Add this to your budget if you stay here. The house was great, the view of being on the Ocean is Amazing! Owner was nice in communication. Bedroom views are beautiful. Chairs on the deck are Perfect for seeing the view!! Parking area good. I would stay here again...the only downside is not providing towels/sheets. I don't think the blankets provided are washed in between guests because you have to make the beds with them prior to leaving. Kitchen is fully equipped. Overall experience with this house was great.

This is our second time staying at the oasis! The house is immaculate, very comfortable for large families and is fully equipped with everything you possible need! The house was extremely clean, the views and ocean front is just simply breath taking! Ingrid is a very phenomenal and caring owner, always checking in making sure everything is ok. Walking a few steps to the sand, watching the sunrise, spending the day watching dolphins and listening to the waves, spending quality time with my kiddies and family are memories that will last a lifetime!

Perfect Family Vacation at Sea The View
This owner aims to please and was incredibly responsive and accommodating. One member of our family has mobility issues and this property proved to be the ticket. Extremely close to the beach and ocean, elevator and few steps required to get to the beach to set up. With 6 adults and four children we had full cars and were appreciative of the chairs and umbrellas for guest use. We cooked in a lot and found that what we needed was there. A nice gas grill is provided as well and we loved that. The wi-fi handled our crowd and all their tech devices and each smart TV has Roku so we were able to sign into our personal streaming services as well. Spacious kitchen table allowed us to seat everyone together and the extra large size dorm refrigerator saved on ice!. Games and puzzles provided for the kids and even a unique arcade type basketball game in the parking area. All in all a great week!

The house is wonderful!
The house worked very well for our needs, the view is gorgeous and the owner was wonderful. The elevator is a little glitchy but we have had the same experience with residential elevators at other properties we stayed in. We needed the elevator for our elderly mother and one of us would always ride with her.
Kitchen was very well equipped and the house was clean.
