Great Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful time during our 4 night stay at Ocean Shade. We were able to bring our dog with us which was a plus. The place had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and the sofa had been upgraded from the one in the photo. The new sofa has heat/massage recliners which was a plus for our son that had surgery. The patio was perfect and private. We will definitely book again.

Perfect get away

The property was fantastic. Very clean. Two complaints is that the door code was absolutely too long. Having an eight digit code is a bit excessive. And the pictures of the pool are a bit misleading. We had to walk down several houses to get to the pool when the pictures made it seem it was right out side the house.

Cute and Cozy

Listing is as explained. It’s basic and all you need for a quick get away. Make sure to read info they send as I was able to prepare in the kitchen for meals more adequately. I would have liked a few more basics provided like bath soap and more than 1 laundry soap packet. Overall, we were able to enjoy our stay for the price and we would come again. Hopefully, construction will be minimal next time and the mosquitoes won’t be as bad.

Vacation 2024

The mosquitoes were horrible. The white bedding and sheets are discolored and need to be replaced. Need cookie sheets in kitchen. Main bed is very lumpy. Location worked well for us, plus having our pet stay was great.

Cute Cabana

This Cabana was very clean and had very nice tropical decorations We enjoyed all the amenities and the side courtyard with a hose and drying racks was a big plus. The two bedrooms, (one with an extra bunk bed) and two baths were very roomy and perfectly accommodated our group. It was on a nice quiet street..

Relaxation at its best

Our stay was very relaxing. Close to the beach and places to eat. Highly recommend. The posting was very accurate. The property manager was able to help get the washer up and running even though it was the 4th of July quickly. Our only issue was we had was ants in the second bedroom that bite my daughter multiple times while she slept. We bought some bug spray and sprayed multiple times. We would stay here again though. Over all we enjoyed our stay at this property.

Overall a good stay. Recommended.

It comfortably slept myself, my husband, two children & my mother. The place was clean, roomy & maintained. The private pool (for the cottage owners) was roughly a 50ft walk. It was a very short drive to the beach, shopping & amusement. The only issue I had personally was the water pressure in the showers. Other than that I would recommend this cottage to anyone looking to have a nice quiet getaway. We would probably stay again if it weren't for the high price.

Weekend Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Ocean Shade cabana was a wonderful stay for my family and I. It has everything we needed and more. It’s location on the island was close to many souvenir shops and charming restaurants. Our stay there felt like a stress free vacation. We were a quick drive to the beach or we could take a quick walk to the pool. I highly recommend staying there!

Great winter texan retreat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the place! Especially loved all the rugs. Could really use a bigger TV in the family room area. Kitchen was well stocked but could use a tea kettle to heat water.
