Cozy VRBO on the beach
This VRBO was 10/10! This location is right across the street from the beach, and walking distance to the best restaurants (wicked cantina, gulf shore cafe, daquiri deck) & the AMOB pier! Maria was a very good communicator. Also met (what I’m assuming) her husband. He was cleaning up around the property & was a very nice man. The VRBO itself was so cute and the perfect size for 2. I liked the curtains in the living room so you could close off the windows, even to the front door. There was plenty of storage in the bathrooms & kitchen. Came with multiple beach chairs & umbrella. Also having a stand up fan in the bedroom was amazing!!! Can’t sleep without one. Also had a parking spot for each VRBO. I would 100% recommend this property & I will definitely book again!

I like planning every details, every step, whenever possible. On this sense, I don't like surprises and my stay at Maria's place was just that, everything in place as advertised. No surprises. And that, for me is perfect. Thank you Maria!

We had to call to get a set of sheets for the sofa sleeper. We had 4 people so we needed to use the sofa sleeper. After calling, the items arrived quickly. Overall, the unit was amazing and our stay was very pleasant.

Sweet little oasis in the center of the action
This cottage is a nice little place just a block from the action on Bridge Street and across the street from the beach. There's even a little water view from the front door. Enjoy people watching on the shaded front patio or take a break in the super quiet room in between activities. The owners are also friendly and accessible.

My husband, son & I stayed here for 5 nights. The location is great! The beach is beautiful. The beds were comfortable. We did keep tracking sand in the cottage, outside hose for rinsing our feet would have been nice. Very easy check in!
