Perfect for a large family of 11!

Perfect for a family of three generations, all operating on a slightly different schedule.Very soundproof which was great having 3 children 3 years and under. Also great having two private spaces, the carriage house and basement apartment to spread out. Close proximity to beach was of utmost importance! Many trips back and forth with little ones. Wonderful experience!

Family Beach Getaway!

Home was beautiful and comfortable! Great location steps away from the private beach. Accommodations were wonderful and the house property company helped with any questions we had promptly. Our only concern was the kitchen items. Maybe add additional coffee cups, kitchen towels, cutting boards, sharper knives….

Da Beach Group

The property accommodated our family and friends very well. Loved the house and decor. Loved the location and privacy of the beach. The front porch was a great location for late evening cocktails. We were very disappointed in the studio. We expected something more updated, instead it seemed more like a 3 star rated accommodation. I think it needs an updated bathroom. Put in a request for maintenance on the shower drain in the bunkroom bath, to my knowledge, no one ever showed, we were able to correct the problem ourselves. The vent above the stove does not work, at least we weren’t able to get it to draw. In the carriage house, there seems to be a bug problem, we sprayed and they seemed to go elsewhere. Also, there were maggots in the grill and the automotive starter doesn’t work. Overall I would give it an A-, we will be back and will recommend highly.

Sweet Family Time

What a wonderful week meeting up with family. Ages from 10-58 and all had a great time laughing and beaching! Beach access was awesome and the privacy of beach was glorious. Very peaceful location and house was very quiet...except when we were laughing. Very spacious for 12 people. Back apartment was great for the boys. Kitchen had plenty of amenities and house was very clean. Thanks for a great time on 30A!

Birthday at the beach

Location and proximity to beach were wonderful. Also, loved being able to walk to a restaurant. The main house was nice. The two additional rooms (garage apartment and ground level room) had an unpleasant odor. Pack everything you need. Don’t expect complimentary trash bags, detergents., or a random beach chair. I know these items are not required but more often than not rental homes of this size provide a few extras.

Catching up with friends

Every year we like to catch up with friends in our church Lifegroup. For the past 4 yrs we have stayed in the mountains but mostly at the beach. This space by far has been the best of them all. Every couple had a bedroom and bath room. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms clean, sheets and pillows smelled fresh and clean, kitchen and grill were well appointed and stocked. Beach access was a short walk right across the street. Best of all it gave us table to dine at all together and a living room that fit all of us for conversation. High marks for this home! It’s on our list to return.

Beautiful, Versatile Property in a Fantastic location

We stayed at Belle Vita in July 2022. We had twelve people and the house was so spacious and open feeling even with that number of people. We had guests arrive from Alabama, North Carolina, and Texas. First off, the house was exactly as described. It easily had all the amenities listed and so much more. We were impressed with the large cabinet of games for the family to play on rainy days and the younger ones enjoyed playing the video games that were in the bunk room. This house was well equipped and had everything that you would want for a vacation. The kitchen was also extremely well equipped. Coffee bean grinder, blenders, lobster crackers etc. This kitchen is better equipped than my house. Lots of plates and cups for big family meals. Kitchen appliances are new and worked well. The bedrooms were tastefully decorated with “real furniture”. Not the cheaper wicker type stuff that is evident in a lot of beach rentals. Beds were memory foam mattresses and super comfortable. But the best surprise is the outstanding water pressure. It was a joy to shower and it felt like all the worries of the world were fading away. Lots of hot water with dual commercial water heaters. The carriage house was only a couple of steps away from the kitchen and it felt like an oasis from the real world. Big trees surrounded the entrance way to the door and deck. It was so nice. The basement apartment was great for teenagers. They could come and go easily and have an exciting time. The neighborhood is so close to Stinky’s Fish camp that we could walk there and not have to drive. It is on the far west section of 30A and was quite easy to drive to Publix and Walmart without fighting 30A traffic. But the beach, OH THE BEACH! Just a few steps away from a private beach. Never was crowded. We never felt pushed to “share our space” Most days we were by ourselves. In July! Remember not easy ups. Just the 7-foot round umbrellas. Overall, this house was one of the finest, cleanest, beautifully decorated and well maintained that our family has ever rented. We have been vacationing on 30-A for over 20 years. We have seen a lot of change, but this house is one we will return to again and again.

Close to the beach…. Somethings could be done better.

Your Comments The location is great! A stones throw away from the beach! The facilities; however, left much to be desired. The carriage house had a very damp odor. Almost like their should be some significant concerns for moisture ( that is why we chose not to sleep in there). The concept of the carriage house would have been nice….especially, if you want some privacy from the rest of the guest. The flooring in the main house sitting areas and hallway was done poorly. In some places it does not even extend to the shoe molding(GAPS). Had a feel of DIY!. The master bathroom down the hall from half bathroom has water pressure issues. It makes you feel like you are being hit by a pressure washer (not in a good way). It is difficult to keep water in the shower as a result. Not an enjoyable shower experience! The kids game toys in the closet were damaged it seems by a past guest. They have candy sticks and gum inside the dance mat. Nicely, the kitchen is filled with the necessary items you need like Tupperware, blender, forks, knives, plates, etc… TV,s in all rooms but the TV in the great room can be temperamental when trying to hook up media. Cabinets in the kitchen are staring to have laminate lift up because they are not wood. The sink in the bathroom with the double queens had a sink that drained poorly. Overall it was a 3/5 stay. Some better cleaning could have been done with dusting and vacuuming. In general it felt like they were asking for a dollar price but didn’t not put as much in as they could to make it feel like it was worth even more. Lastly, it was inconvenient to have to strip all the beds used and gather the linens and wash clothes etc. and place by the door . Especially , when you are asked to pay a large cleaning fee as part of the rental already.

Neighborhood Nook by the Beach

Great location on calmer end of 30A. Loved the hidden neighborhood feel. Short walk to beach where sometimes a deer was grazing! House worked well for our big group. Front porch was a great gathering place, very large. Great room was really spacious. Kitchen was well-stocked. All appliances worked. Bedrooms were comfortable. Back yard area for grilling was very private with beautiful twisted trees. The only negative was a slight odor in the carriage house and basement apartment, but both were very clean and attractive. We had a great week here.

16 Bullard stay during our son’s wedding

Not able to talk to someone beforehand—email only. House was nice and clean except for guest house and basement bedroom which were very musty and dank. Ridiculous provision of paper goods (toilet paper and paper towels) and garbage bags for number of tenants and price of rental. Check in way too late and check out much too early. Beach access was nice and ability to enjoy private area. Apparently an opossum living in the attic of the guest house. Was seen entering the attic and heard throughout the night. Hopefully resolution of these issues will help with future rentals. We left a small gift for the homeowner as a thank you. Painted for them by the renter.

Great house!

This is a great house for multiple groups, especially with the carriage house and basement studio. The main house had a great living and dining space, though the kitchen is closed off. The bedrooms are spacious and it is nice that each is an en suite. The house had some minor issues due to an impolite group of guests before us but the rental company tried to fix what they could. The only two negatives were the walk to the beach - you have to go through sand as there is no boardwalk and that was hard for the littles and the fact that the neighborhood has no contract for beach set ups.
