One of a kind wedding venue. If you are dreaming of a fully beachfront wedding, this is it!!

Went for a wedding and it was terrible. No parking, all sand walkways useless for a walker or wheelchair. Sand dune and sand very hard to walk. Restroom was awful with door not locking but only one. Terrible access to rooms via a very narrow staircase, impossible for seniors to use.

We were supposed to stay here starting tomorrow and the host called at 5:50 pm saying the home was no longer available. Absolutely unacceptable business practice.

I wish I could give this house 0 stars. We booked our June trip in early January. At 5:36pm the night before we were set to check in, I received an e-mail that the house was no longer available. This left all 10 of us with flights to Tampa and absolutely no where to stay. They did not reach out to me by phone and simply stated they would be watching their email in hopes I would respond. It seems like there are a few other reviews like mine as well, I wouldn't recommend renting here.

First.... The location and the outdoors areas are outstanding! But..... Ants got into anything that was left on the counter. The live roach on the floor that I killed on the last day did me in, along with some other not so great indoor accommodations. Advice to the owner: Spend more money on the things a traveler may need and less money on the cute decorations. If you are staying in this location pack EVERYTHING..... The place was missing: Beach towels, a hair dryer, there was only 1 towel and wash cloth per person for the entire stay (they told me I could do laundry if I wanted a clean towel), pillows were sparse, no extra blankets, no broom or dust pan to sweep up the sand, ice trays, the mattress on the pull out could be a lot better (had to stuff pillows under the mattress to make it sleepable), beach chairs would be nice, more necessities (ie. toilet paper, trash bags). Just missing these small few items made our trip uncomfortable. I don't believe I have ever stayed in a rental on the beach that did not have at the very least beach towels and a hair dryer. But like I said the outdoors and the location is amazing. The owner just needs to work on a travelers needs a little more on the inside and this would be a 5 star place. Getting rid of the bugs would be a definite must!

Family booked vacation over a year in advance. Owner overbooked and the other guests checked in the day before we were supposed to check in. We had no notice until hours before we were supposed to check in. 20+ of us left with no place to go after traveling across the country. Do NOT book here.

I stayed at the beach house in Hugger 1 from May 2-12, 2022. I have always given a glowing review when staying at this property. Here’s some of my stay history…I started staying at the Sunset Beach House in 2016. Originally I rented the Sandpiper Suite & Tree House for my family & friends to join me. After my first stay I began renting the only the Sandpiper Suite. I was very sad when the ownership transferred & could no longer rent the suite alone. I switched to staying in a hugger after the property sold. Despite the size of the accommodation, the small quirky bathroom & a bed access only from one side, I love the property. It is why I have returned multiple times a year since my first stay in 2016. To say my last visit was disappointing is an understatement. To start: 1) though the room was clean [except for the glass in the door. I cleaned it. ]there were no plates, glasses, spoons. [Obviously no inventory was done to see that items moved around from room to room or broken were replaced] 2)the freezer was frozen to the point that the drawers would not slide & one drawer was on top of the refrigerator because it could not fit in its slot because of all the ice. I cook. I bring food. A cleaning person was there & gave me extra towels so I could defrost the freezer. I spent the better part of my first evening defrosting it. I used my blow dryer to get the ice off all the coils including up under the racks where ice had been allowed to freeze & never fully defrosted. I took a break for sunset. 3) No internet (addressed but never fixed)4)curtain on door window falling down. Duck taped.( It was addressed on May 3rd)All of the Adirondack chairs were up by the huggers instead of reset to the sand & on the deck out by the sea grass for sunset viewing. I & my friend can not lift or drag them 6)the picnic tables that should be set out, were stacked by the stairs to the house, blocked the double gate & could not be used. I spoke to the office to get the kitchen things that were missing I mentioned the chairs& tables & was told there is a service that comes & reset those on Mondays & Fridays. I arrived on Monday, May 2nd and it was not done. The property was messy from a weekend wedding. The outdoor furniture was not reset.Plates, glasses, spoons, a few more items the kitchen was missing were taken care of Tuesday. I wish I could remember the woman’s name, she ask to see all the issues. She also moved 4 of those heavy Adirondack chairs out to the deck so we would have chairs to watch the sunset.I sent a text regarding the picnic tables & the raking. I ask to please have things back in order for Mother’s Day. I had family coming and wanted access to the picnic tables. Again told they would come Friday. In my opinion, your service missed Monday they should have come immediately on Tuesday & then again on Friday. I sent a text asking that everything be put back in order for Mother's Day. Friday rolls around & again no show. I did get an email or text stating they had an issue with their equipment but they would be there on Saturday so the grounds would be attended to and I would have picnic tables on Sunday. That did not happen either. For me, the property is not getting the attention it has had in the past. I know it is different than other properties but it’s uniqueness should be something to embrace, take pride in & keep in good order. I stay because I can walk from my unit onto the sand & out to the water. I stay because of the beautiful, well groomed property. I love the pines and have appreciated the upkeep & raking that it requires & have been grateful for it in the past. Maybe this is an isolated occurrence & has never happened before. But as I stated earlier this was not my first stay. It was not my first stay this year & not my first stay after a wedding. I have experienced a decline in the attention to this property that makes me so sad. I hope this was an isolated incident and my next stay will be more like what is projec
