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.

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!

Time to gather with family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Time together with two generations. We enjoyed some activities together, some singly, but always resting and doing something different than what we normally do.This was our first time on the island. We found that everything was we wanted or needed was close. We definitely want to return in a year or two.

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.

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.

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 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!!!

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?

Turtle Crawl

My husband and myself, our two daughters and two son in laws came for the turtle crawl. We love the neighborhood and have stayed in another unit before. This particular one is nice but there were a few flaws with the cleaning crew. There were dirty dishes put away in cabinets, a big wad of hair stuck to the shower wall in one of the upstairs bathrooms and by the looks of our bare feet the floors had not been mopped very well. None the less we enjoyed our stay, stuffed the dishes in the dishwasher, the hair I. The trash and washed our feet. We will be back many more times and we will choose to stay in this neighborhood again.
