From the time we entered in the home, we were amazed and at home. The pictures of the property on VRBO accurately reflect the home. RIGHT on the beach, it was great to come and go off the beach as we pleased.
Rooms: the rooms were perfect for a large or extended family. We had to parents, 4 children under 10 and two grand parents and it was perfect. One room has two full beds. Could also accommodate 3-4 couples easily. Each room with their own shower or bath which made everyone feel at home.
The kitchen and dining area was perfect for us. A large open area with views of the beach and sunset everynight. Even when sipping coffee in the morning, dining, or playing cards, just open one of the three sliding double doors and you have the ocean soundtrack to enjoy.
The beach was perfect. white sands that felt cool under or on your feet, a Long Beach shelf to wade out into. Great for kids.
Beach toys and amenities galore: kayak, paddle board, two tents (7 and 10 feet canopy for shade), sand castle equipment, sports balls (volleyball, soccer, football), pool toys (noodles, rafts, etc.).
The owner/manager even got us a high chair for our little one as well as a pack in play which makes all the difference for our travels.
There was even more to the house we never got to. There was a speaker system throughout the house that it appears you can patch into.
The town of IRB is quaint and quirky like a typical beach town. Not as curated as places like Sandestin or Rosemary or Seaside, so a bit more "real" or authentic. Regardless, once in this beach home its just you and the beach, no traffic noise or rowdy outdoor crowds.
We had wonderful time in this home! Thank you.
