Amazing Thanksgiving

Dragonfly was perfect for our 2 day Thanksgiving celebration. We were a large group of 20 but everyone had their own comfortable space, and the common areas never felt crowded. It is a well-appointed house with a well-stocked kitchen. The layout is great with easy access to rooms and bathrooms. It is right on the water and we enjoyed both sunrise and sunset right on the balcony, and relaxing walks on the beach. Easy and fast communication with property manager and a smooth check in/out process. A great vacation house to have had indeed. We plan to be back, God willing. Thanks for an amazing Thanksgiving venue!

Has everything you need!

We stayed here for two nights for a team retreat. The house has everything you need. Every kitchen utensil, blankets for the sofa, several beach towels, padded loungers on the front deck and beach chairs/boogie boards downstairs. It was immaculate when we got there, the cleaning staff did a great job! Location is fantastic. The palm tree in front of the beautiful large ocean view deck was incredible. We all loved it and would highly recommend to large groups!

Thump up

Way way better than our expectations. Can't find a better view for sun rise from a southeast facing patio. My 85 yrs old mother had a hard time to navigate 24 steps from ground level. This is not a complaint, just a reminder for old folks or someone having knee issue.

Perfect!

This is our second stay at the Dragonfly property. The location is ideal and the layout of the home was a good fit for our eight adults and five children under 7. The two toddlers spent all their time playing on the stairs so I should have brought my baby gate. Other than that the house was a great place for vacation!

Hear the waves and feel the breeze

Beautiful house big enough for 17 of us. On the deck you always felt the breeze and heard the waves. House is huge inside with plenty of room to move around and sleep comfortable for 17 woman. Under the house was great for gathering in the hot part of the day. Parking was in abundance so no worries on how many cars can fit. Loved it! All appliances worked great and no overflow of garbage outside!

Needs new beds!!!

We would have enjoyed it but everyone complained about the beds. I know mine was terrible and the cheap paper thin sheets was very disappointing. When your on vacation and you finally sleep a few hours and wake up feeling like you got hit by a truck it doesn't leave a very good feeling especially when your paying 1200.00 $ a night and fees and taxes. All so the floors were dirty one year old was filthy crawling on the floor when we first got there, we had to clean the floors so she could be put down on the floor. The ferry was a horrific and the time lost waiting was terrible. Please change yor beds it's not right to have a vacation rental with bad beds. I had to check and see if it was a air bed it was so bad.

Immaculate home right on the beach

This home was perfect for a graduation celebration. The layout of the kitchen was amazing with the tables plus eat-in counter. And that bonus room upstairs was a great hangout for the kids. The space beneath was a super way to spend the evenings with cornhole and spikeball. We even got to know some of our neighbors! Would definitely stay here again.
