Hello private beachfront paradise! The main level great room is completely open, with a wall of windows facing the sea. Vaulted ceilings add to the modern and airy vibe. Outside through the glass doors, an oceanfront deck beckons you to slip out of your flip flops and relax on one of the comfortable lounge chairs. Listen to the sound of the waves crashing against the shore and the call of the seagulls as you soak up the sun or sit in the shade with a frosty cocktail. The stylish kitchen features a huge quartz-topped island— 30 feet long! White cabinets, two dishwashers, and a commercial-grade refrigerator face the ocean views, while additional glass-front cabinets and workspaces are around the corner. There is ample seating between the seats at the island and the nearby dining table.

Location of this home was perfect! Private beach access AWESOME....Plenty of room. Host communication was AWESOME. only downfall photos show game room with 4 video games only 2 left and they don't work and also it shows plenty of outdoor seating and inside bar seating but there is not as much as shown..Just need to update pictures. Have to be careful on back deck it is wood planks and there are several nails that are coming up out of the boards. And there was a iron but no ironing board...all minor issues...Grandkids LOVED the bunkrooms..would Definitely stay there again

This is a large, beautiful, clean home. We stayed with grand kids and great grandkids. Everyone had room to spread out. Lots of bedrooms so kids had their own space. Beds were all clean and comfortable. The view was amazing, especially from the upstairs suite. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals. The path to the beach was really neat - we saw bunnies there every day. The kids game room needs some attention but all in all it was great!

The place is great. If I had to comment on anything, it’s a little warm. The windows did let in a little air, which is probably why it was kinda of warm. The cleanliness was beyond the usual. The space is great and the view is amazing.

TLDR: I wouldn't return.Pro - Quiet location with easy access to the beach. Spacious building with ample room for several families. Initial contact with property management was pleasant and frequent, and check-in was easy. Plenty of dishware and silverware. TV/Wifi work.Con - The VRBO pictures are dated, and most everything is damaged, worn, or failing. Had to wash the sheets when we arrived, as the existing made beds had stained linens. AC didn't work on the second floor, which was not disclosed. Initial contact with management resulted in maintenance coming the next day to install a small window unit, bearing in mind there was already a small portable installed. When asked, After having to saw out a window, as no windows would otherwise open, Maintenance acknowledged that the central A/C was known to be broken for the second floor. When repeatedly asking for assistance on this, Management went silent outside of automated messages regarding checkout. VRBO was contacted, and even VRBO has shared they never heard back from the Management team.Ground floor game room has strong mold, and the games are broken. The room was unusable.@BeachBox Management team - invest in fixing the property, and don't go silent when your guests have issues, even if you can't fix them timely. It's unprofessional. Work with your guests to tune the price to accommodate, and you'll get fewer reviews like this one. Do better.
