"Feel free to find my Google review but long story short: one star for service. I complained after two nights bc the last night there were like ten ants in the bathroom that I had to kill, a spider on the wall, and tons of mosquitos (the mosquitos were expected) but the ants and other microscopic bugs were in the bed.

"When I arrived, the owner of the property told me he wanted me to cancel my expedia booking and pay him cash because "he couldnt recieve the funds I paid through expedia".

Five Bungalows, Swimming Pool and Amenities Amidst a Beachfront Forest.

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (50)
"Perfect combination of privacy, convenience and service to make for a great beach vacation. The layout is perfect for couples, we had six couples, everyone had their own space and we all hung out at the pool, dining area and upper deck. Beach is amazing and 30 seconds away. Location hard to beat. Staff is exceptional and the host made it super easy to plan for a big group. All activities were planned well and stress free because of their help. "

"Overall we loved our stay. It was a family trip and we had a group of 17 people ranging in ages from 11-78. The location was fabulous. The beach was wonderful and very accessible from the property. We were very happy that there were several boogie boards at the property. They got a lot of use. There was also a place a short distance away that rented surf boards. The food was wonderful. Your employee that did the cooking was excellent and the cost was very reasonable. There were also...
