Wonderful beach house Our group of 5 adults recently stayed at the Island Breeze for 4 days. The house was beautifully decorated, comfortable and very clean. There was plenty of room to relax and a large, open kitchen where we cooked meals most nights. We loved being able to sit on one of the decks and enjoy the breeze or walk to the beach over the nearby boardwalk. We had a wonderful time and definitely will be back!

OUTSTANDING!! Our entire experience with the 513 Flat was top notch, from the communication and service before our arrival to the follow up upon leaving. The unit is immaculate, incredibly well-stocked, and very very clean. We had 5 adults and had plenty of room to sleep comfortably. The common areas inside and out are just as nice. We were only there for one night, but hope to return for a longer stay so we can enjoy all the amenities, include the pool, grilling area, and game room. The other bonus, is this is a safe and comfortable walking distance from Great American Ballpark.

Fun in the Sun Clean, comfortable, great location. Would recommend renting a golf cart to get around, although not essential. Short walk to boardwalk leading to the beach.

Family trip Great house in a great location. Kitchen is well equipped and there’s plenary of places to eat. Good bed configuration for multiple families with kids of all ages.

The house was spotless and very nice. There were a few ‘dated’ items but they were still clean and in good shape. I liked this house and would stay there again. It was one of the smaller houses in the neighborhood and as such was less expensive than the larger houses but again everything was spotless and the right size for my crew. The management company responded promptly to any I had.

Great for family trips to the beach Big, well appointed beach house an easy 5 min stroll to the beach (we did not need a golf cart, although many neighbors did). The house was very clean and it had everything we needed. We would definitely consider staying in this same property again next time we are in Port A.

Melissa

Awesome House Beautiful house and neighborhood. Great boardwalk drivable by golfcart. Close to beach and town.

Diana

February 2024

Awesome! Great stay again! Clean and great location. Has pretty much everything you need, a Keurig coffee make would be great since I’m the only one who drinks coffee (there is a standard coffee maker though). Hot tub down the street was nice but not hot enough for February. But we will definitely stay here again!
