Nice beach weekend

We really enjoyed the space and proximity to the beach. The beds were very comfortable! The outdoor space was nice for coffee in the morning or cocktails at night. It was nice and quiet.

The house was perfect for a relaxing beach weekend. Spectacular views from the living room and game room. Home was clean and the kitchen was stocked well with utensils and basics. Beds were comfortable and cozy. House is located near the vehicle access to the beach and was so convenient to drive down and have a bonfire near the water. Highly recommend Drifting Sands. Communication with property manager was seamless and thorough.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The good: It was available during a busy Car Show weekend. It was on a quiet street and had enough space for the 6 guests. The not so good: It's an older home which is probably why the downstsirs gameroom smelled strange. There is no A/C in the home. The house fan only cooled the kitchen and made the other rooms quite warm so we had to open windows instead. The curtains were dusty but I'm not certain that was due to lack of cleanliness or due to beach proximity. Overall: It was good enough but I would not recommend or rent again.

Great stay!

The house was perfect for our family. We had adult kids with us and grandparents. We all loved the location and proximity to the beach. The house was very clean, decorated nicely and was super comfortable for all of us. The beds were extremely comfortable which everyone loved. The view from the top floor looking out to the beach is breathtaking. We used the BBQ for a family dinner the last night and the sunset was amazing. The check in process was super easy and the communicated very well with us. I had a few questions about things and they were prompt to reply. We would stay here again for sure. Thank you!
