Nice & relaxing getaway!
If you are looking for somewhere beach front, clean, comfy, & relaxing, this is your place! Step out on the front porch and it was like you were sitting on the beach. Zero complaints about our stay. We would stay here again! The host stayed in contact before our trip & was quick to communicate upon our arrival. Provided very clear check in & check out information.

Family Vacation
Not very impressed with the beach or the town itself. The Southern Wave property was wonderful. Spacious and very kid friendly. The only issue was stickers in the back yard. Couldn't let my grandson go without shoes. I would definitely rent the house again if it were located somewhere else.

One Beach A Year
My husband, myself, and our Boston had a wonderful stay. Not only was the house exactly what I was looking for but also the community members were welcoming. Our pup, who normally has freedom to roam at home, enjoyed the fenced in yard and the huge deck instead of having to be leased. This property was definitely large enough for many more guests, but was a lovely beach house for our short get away.

Couldn't have been better!
I absolutely fell in love with the house and location. It was perfect, we loved the fenced yard. I travel with a service dog and a family pet and it was so nice for them to be welcome and safe. We walked to the little taqueria on the corner, found a few more great places to eat very close to the house. The beach was wonderful in this area. Overall, it is just simply a SUPERB location! We hope to be back at Southern Wave soon!

This is a great property. Beachfront. The house was furnished with everything we needed and the welcome bottle of wine was a nice surprise. It was definitely large enough for 3 adults and 3 teenagers
