Such a smooth check in and stay. A tiny issue was quickly addressed and resolved, with quick and easy communication. The house was great, very comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked with all of your cooking needs. It was a short walk to the beach, and relaxing at the bar, in the yard or in the hot tub. Overall, exactly what we needed. Thank you for having us!

We had the best, and most seamless, last minute stay at this property. The host was super friendly, attentive and remained positive when I had several questions during check in/out. The home contained everything my family needed plus more. Excellent location — driving, walking or golf cart distance to everything you’d need. Shopping & restaurants all nearby without feeling in the middle of the chaos. Comfy beds! Highly recommended! Will definitely be back!

Worth it
So, to start upon arrival house needs a good deep cleaning (had to sweep when arrived and there was long white dog hair everywhere, assuming owners dog because it was under couches and beds lol not an issue to me though because I don’t mind pets and appreciated being able to bring my littles ). Could use a little TLC (window screen broken, needs updated painting everywhere, and mold in upstairs bathtub but it was still beautiful overall. Couldn’t get upstairs tv to work it had a remote to a fire stick tv but there was only a directv box attached - messaged in Vrbo and they said to look downstairs where projector was for the fire stick but couldn’t even locate that so I just let it go because they did mention previous guests could have taken it. Then we lost power one night for about 4 hours and the smoke detector started going off but it wasn’t an issue at all because we got to sit outside and watch fireworks and enjoy the breeze and we also disconnected the smoke detector (they could use new batteries too think) but everything was great, beautiful place, close to the beach, family enjoyed it and appreciated being able to stay there with our pets as well.

Amazing Location and hosts!
The property was amazing with a beautiful view of the ocean and just 3 houses away from the beach! It perfectly accommodated my family and had plenty of games for everyone to play. Great place for kids and baby friendly. One thing I will note though is that there were some issues and hiccups with the property after we checked in that was mostly due to the previous guests but Will and the management team were very quick to respond to our requests and had people out fixing all of the issues extremely fast! One of the best communications with a property management team and it made the stay and process enjoyable! We will definitely be back again soon!!!

Great Easter Weekend
We absolutely loved this house. It was my son’s birthday over Easter weekend and this house was amazing. The boys had a blast at this property. The location to beach, hot tub, bunk room, fire pit, yard games all made their weekend. The downstairs area is amazing to hang out underneath. The house itself is very cozy. A/C was cold and rooms were very comfortable. We will definitely be staying here again!

Nice Rental
We enjoyed a great holiday weekend at Sunset Paradise beach house! The hosts have provided some nice touches and provisions that are sometimes lacking in house rentals, such as comfortable beds, pillows and nice linens and towels, that were much appreciated! The projector screen was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The house needs a little TLC, but overall a great stay!!!

Annual Family Summer Beach Trip
I will start with we enjoyed our family beach trip & for the most part the house had everything we needed. There was plenty of space for our family & we enjoyed the downtime for sure! The kitchen was well stocked & the big store just down the road was a great little spot to pick up odds & ends. Any communication needed with the owners was quick, friendly & they were very responsive.
While the keypad didn’t work at checkin, the owners had provided a backup before hand, so we were able to get in without issue. We had booked the place in part to use the golf cart, which wasn't working for our stay. The details were shared on day 2 of the stay & the owners did give us the option to rent one & then be reimbursed to make up for the inconvenience, but after already paying for the stay itself, it just wasn't an option for us. So we decided to walk the short distance to the beach & that worked out fine being it's quite close.
The only recommendations I have, is a deep clean & a good walk through of the home. We found food on the kitchen counters & on a few plates from the previous occupants. Not anything we couldn't wipe down & throw in the dishwasher, but ideally would have been great if we didn't have to. There were several lights burnt out that need replacing & I would recommend some updating to the areas that need attention like the bed in the shell room & the ceiling in the living room where the can lights are coming loose & boards are displaced.
But great owners & we had fun!

Birthday getaway
Overall the stay was comfy. All though the only down side for us was the fencing. In the pictures it looked like the whole downstairs was fenced in but was not. The first day we tried to take out our boxer he took off running to next yard. Other houses we’ve rented had the whole downstairs fenced in. But once we got the dogs in the gates area they were ok. There were a few minor things that needed fixing for example lights in kitchen went out so was dark when we were in kitchen. The communication was great with contact. Golf cart was a plus along with grill and projector. They all worked great. Thanks again !😊

Crystal Beach
Upon arrival the keypad was dead. Owner response was immediate . I was instructed where a soars key was kept. The golf cart had wrong key . Owner sent out the property manager immediately. Went for ride on golf cart and the rear seat broke off . The maintenance guy showed up quickly to temporarily fix.
We didn’t use the black stone because it had rust around edges and wasn’t properly cleaned. The projector wouldn’t work . We had two audio ppl with us and talked with owner on phone. Never got it to work. The home is a beautiful home with plenty room for everyone. I felt like it needs some work following the summer season. It’s showing wear and tear and needs enterior paining. Several cabinet door hinges are broke leaving doors hanging. The cleaning is not deep clean-just surface cleaning. Kitchen sink is very stained around the drain. and where unddrmount and counter meet. Under the sink is very dirty. The lower cupards are a mess with everything just thrown in there hard to find anything. The stove top knobs have no numbers of how to operate the heat. The bathroom toilet brushes are discusting-very dirty and stained. These should be disposable. The bacteria gets passed from one renter to another with dirty brushes. The plastic shower curtains are also dirty with mildew/rust.
Over all it was a nice stay and owners are super nice and responsive. We were refunded some money for the inconveniences. The cost is too high for overall cleanliness.

Excellent beach house
When the property states “everything you need is on site” trust me it is accurate. The most well stocked place we’ve ever visited from inside the kitchen to the garage that came equipped with beach toys! Thanks for hosting our family for our family beach vacation. The property owners / agents responded very quickly and professionally to every question I had making our overall experience the best.

Beautiful Home and Location
This home was beautiful and very well equipped. We were six adults, one baby and two toddlers. It was very important that the home was childproofed. Lots of supplies.
A couple of things that could have been better: several lights were out in at least one of the bathrooms; most of the lamps in living area were unplugged and we were not able to find plugs; a bedside lamp in one of the king rooms didn’t have a knob - it had been twisted off I think. These are small things and would be easily fixed. Also only had one bath towel per person for four days.
We would stay here again as it was a beautiful house. Loved the outside yard for our dogs and the lift to get all luggage and groceries upstairs. Also made use of the golf cart. Thank you for letting us stay … we loved it.
