If you want a lovely home, truly walking distance to a lovely beach, well- equipped kitchen, well-furnished, wonderful private beach, private pool that is big enough to really enjoy, and walking distance to restaurants and shopping - then this is your place! The private beach and included chairs are wonderful - truly is close enough to walk back and forth to the house for lunch, snacks, etc. The four included bikes and great for riding around the neighborhood and to restaurants and shopping. Our 12 year olds could ride them - they are about 4' 11" tall. Anyone shorter would probably need a smaller kid's bike. The kitchen is very well-stocked with most anything you would need - we cooked several meals and had plenty of utensils, pots/pans, bowls, even some pyrex for leftovers. The owner and local property manager are wonderful - very responsive - we had one minor issue with the AC and they had it taken care of in under 2 hours! While there - walk over to the Gulf Place center- around the back is a neat area with local vendors selling unique items. We also highly recommend Shunk Gulley's and PecanJacks Ice cream! The neighborhood is quiet overall, sometimes heard neighbors in the evening but nothing loud or bothersome at all. Overall I highly recommend this home with no reservations! I thoroughly research when booking vacation rentals - (probably too much!) - and I can definitely say quit looking - this place is great - we would absolutely stay there again!
