Relaxing

The house is in a quiet neighborhood. We went to the beach daily which is about a 8 minute walk. Then enjoyed the pool and grill during the evening. Then went for an evening stroll to watch the sunset.

Just what I needed

The kind people in the area made me feel right at home. Walking out my back door to take a swim is not something I am use to but it was just what I needed. Close to hospital to visit a sick friend and close enough to the beach to talk to God about my concerns in this world. So much room and a garage to keep your car out of the sun. Loved this area and will be back.

Great Get Away

What a great vacation! The house was spacious and beautiful! Loved the games left for us to enjoy ! Plenty of space for all! Plenty of linens, towels and even beach towels. The pool was great! We appreciated the pool guy coming twice to service the pool.The walk to the beach was short quick and easy. The shells were amazing and the lifeguards great! I appreciated the things to do in the binder! We enjoyed seeing turtles at night as we watched a large sea turtle returning back to the sea after laying eggs. We were wowed as we watched a rocker launch from the bottom of the driveway from Cape Canaveral. We were all truly in awe! All of us would highly recommend this place!!!

Couldn't ask for Better

The Surfing Turtle was perfect! The house is spacious and we all had privacy! In other beach homes, we've always felt piled on top of each other. The amenities were great - everything we needed, that was advertised in the description, was available for use! If we are back in the area again, this would be out #1 pick for a place to stay!

Good family house!!

Plenty of room for everyone. Nice pool and patio. Walk to the beach. Kitchen setup with everything you need - grill was great! Only a couple of things - bathtub is super slippery (kiddos were sliding around) and there really needs to be more light on the dining room. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone traveling with families.

Spring Break 2024

Communication and check in was easy as it possibly could be. The house was clean and had plenty of space for our group. We did have a pool heater issue but management fixed it right away. Beach access was just a few minute walk. Very quiet area so if you’re looking for chaos and hustle and bustle this area is not it. We enjoyed how quiet the neighborhood was as well. We did visit some local shops and restaurants which were all wonderful and everyone was very helpful and friendly. I’d suggest just having a few extra paper products to start with. There was only six of us and had to purchase extras right away. But overall would absolutely visit this home and the area again.

Nice house well oriented

Tous les 10 membres de notre famille ont aimé la grande maison très bien exposée au soleil et les lits super confortables. Petit inconvénient de la situation de la salle de bain de l’autre côté du couloir d’une chambre mais on a su s’adapter pour un séjour de 15 jours de vacances. Merci pour les services rapides concernant les heures d’ arrosage. Nous reviendrons!

Thank you!

Great value for the property! Clean, great responsiveness, and great amenities. Only thing to improve would be the lights throughout the property (the one in the main dining area kept going on and off, the kitchen lights were blinding, and the lights out back were not great). Thank you for the stay!

The property was exactly as described. Our family rented the house for a beach wedding at the Crowne Plaza. This was a great house for our family. The pool was great and the proximity to the beach was awesome. Everything went as planned and the house was great.

A great place to stay!

Property was close to restaurants and beaches. We were able to see a rocket launch right from the end of the driveway. Pool and outside area was nice. Hopefully the yard is a little less weedy in the future, there was a maintenance guy there fixing the sprinkler system, maybe this had something to do with the lawn. I would recommend this house and would definitely stay there again! Owner and managing company responded quickly to concerns or questions.

Nice house with everything you need!!

Lots of space in this house, having two separate LRs meant the kiddos had their own space and the adults had their own also! Beds were very comfortable, kitchen had everything needed to cool three meals a day! The pool was clean and a good size. We appreciated the beach gear!! We would definitely come back and stay here again!

Nice house close to the beach

The house was perfectly sized for our group of 9 (from 1 year old to 65+). Plenty of bedrooms so that everyone had their privacy. The bathroom set-up was a bit different - two of the bedrooms had en suite baths, leaving the remaining 4 bedrooms to share basically ONE full bath that didn't have an outlet. We enjoyed the outside space a LOT - nice yard, good patio area, very nice-sized pool. We would have preferred that the pool was heated (and I should have asked about that prior to reserving the house), but it ended up being ok once we got used to it. Short walk to the beach - we'd brought a beach wagon along with us and that helped tote the kids and all the "stuff." Property management was very responsive and helpful! Would recommend this house to others with a large group!!

Lots of rooms and 5 minute walk to the beach

This house was perfect for our large family gathering at Christmas! There were plenty of beds and privacy for the teens and adults in our group when anyone needed it. The backyard is very relaxing and the 5 minute walk to the beach is by sidewalks and crosswalks. If you are planning to go to the beach for the day, I would suggest a wagon to carry your supplies to have someone do the quick drive up to the beach and drop off the gear. Great house! We all agreed we'd stay there again!
