There are 3 dune crossovers to the sand area landside of the seawall that are always accessible, and that area can be used for recreational purposes.

Wonderful cottage/condo!

Spacious rooms, very clean, tastefully decorated and fully stocked kitchen. Location in the condo community was peaceful and relaxing, we loved sitting in either of the screened in porches with coffee or wine enjoying the ocean sights and sounds. Spectacular sunrises! Parker Kaufman management company was impressive, we had confusion over dates on our end and they were very easy to work with and help, which made our stay even better. Would definitely stay here again!

A lovely, relaxing stay in an excellently-appointed home

This is a lovely home in a pleasant, quiet neighborhood. It is extraordinarily well-appointed, providing everything we could possibly have wanted for kitchen, home and beach. It was very clean and comfortable, with plenty of space for grandma mom, and two teens to spread out or gather. We especially loved the screened-in porches for relaxing and watching birds go by and waves come in. A very short walk to the beach and nicely located on the quieter north end of the Island. We would definitely consider staying here again. One maintenance note: the exterior doors to the screened-in porches were very difficult to unlock, open, and lock from the inside; perhaps they need some adjustments?

Really, really relaxing stay!

Lovely townhouse style apartment. Very clean, good location, a/c worked well. Tankless water heater meant all 6 of us could shower in the morning with no issue. Very quiet being one apartment from the end of the development. Only requirements for checking out are to empty garbage, start dishwasher and leave your beds unmade. Both decks had comfortable furniture and the ocean was soothing. We didn’t use the pool but it looked nice. Everything was close and the Driftwood bistro is easy walking distance. My only negative would be that they are a little stingy with supplies. One roll of TP per bathroom, one roll of paper towels, 2 dishwasher tablets, no laundry soap. Only one towel per person (we stayed 5 nights) so laundry had to be done. It would have been nice to have a little coffee and 1/2 & 1/2 for the first morning until we could get to the store. In general though, it was a great time and I would recommend to friends.

beautiful home

Our group was 2 families with 4 kids under 10. The house was a great size, bedrooms and bathrooms were very nice. Plenty of seating in the dining area. Well stocked kitchen. Great supply of beach chairs, toys, kites, bikes, etc. for us to enjoy during our stay. Was surprised that the beach disappeared at high tide, but wonderful at low tide and gave us time to get out and explore the island.

Great quiet getaway

Lovely condo in good location. The beach is assible only at low tide, but public beach is very close. Great pool! Hot water was not always available. No hand soap and toilet paper not in every bathroom, but a nice facility.

Great condo in a great location

This would have been a 5 star stay except for 2 things 1st was it wasn’t clean by any standard. I had to wash our bed sheets they were so dirty. 2nd the hot water would not work in the evening when we would get ready for bed. Otherwise a fabulous condo with all of the amenities. Beautiful sunrise every day over the ocean. We used all of the incredible porches and the back patio. The laundry was especially good. The appliances in the kitchen top notch. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils. The beds and seating were comfortable. If it had just been clean and had hot water in the evening it would have been 5 star.

Heavenly get away

We absolutely loved this rental! Very clean! And had so many extras that they chose to include (ie: beach towels, tons of beach toys, floats, games, stocked kitchen stuff) the view from this home was BREATHTAKING! I could’ve slept outside on The upstairs balcony because it was so peaceful and comfortable! 10/10 would recommend this home! And the doors leading outside are very much kid friendly which was a huge plus for me!

Great Ocean View!

This was our second time staying at the cottages. We loved being able to sit on the back porch/patio area to see the ocean and hear the waves. Nice and quiet location at The Cottages while still being close to beach access and short walk to the pool.

Great Place!!!

We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back. The location is perfect and it's just steps from the beach. The only issue we had was the bathrooms. They weren't very clean when we showed up. The biggest issue being a lot of hair still in the showers and tub. We cleaned them ourselves, so that was a little frustrating. Other than that, the stay was perfect!!!

Beautiful island

This is a fantastic property on a beautiful island. We had seven of us in the house and we were very comfortable. The porches were our favorite places to hang out and watch the pelicans and the rainbows—the ocean view is wonderful. The house is exactly as described. We used the two bikes a lot — we loved riding around the island. The only strange thing, and this is not the fault of the owner but the policy of the condo association, is that you are not permitted to hang sandy or wet towels and swimsuits anywhere outside. This is the beach! Everyone has sandy towels and dripping swimsuits! So take enough beach towels to get you through morning and afternoon at beach or pool, then wash everything at night in the large-sized washer and dryer. You will have a wonderful vacation at this cottage!
