Great setup! - Anonymous U Posted on 5/28/2026 ### This house was the absolute perfect house. (5/5 stars) This house was the absolute perfect house. We didn’t have one complaint, everything was stunning from the pool, to the amenities of the home, the walk to the beach was less than 5 minutes, the location from the market was a 16 minute bike ride, the beds were extremely comfortable, and overall everything was top notch. I hosted 10 girls in this house for my bachelorette and it was PERFECT. 4 of us 20 year olds slept in the bunk room and it was perfect. They definitely can host adults and just not kids! Our family will be coming back and staying in this house! - Allie B. Posted on 9/29/2025 ### Akers Ellis provides a fantastic rental service.
