Thank you for providing a pleasant stay at your beautiful loft. The location and layout were both gorgeous, and the main bed and pillows were very comfortable, which made for an excellent night's sleep. The following suggestions could enhance stays and improve safety for future guests:Accessibility: A disclaimer in the rental information noting that the location is not wheelchair or handicap accessible could be helpful.Amenities: Consider adding a small table in the living room, such as a coffee table or an end table. Installing a shower caddy would also be helpful for holding shower accessories.Safety: Some floorboards are loose, which could be a tripping hazard. Addressing these issues would benefit the safety of future guests. Thank you again for a wonderful stay.

What a great place! The loft is a beautiful space in a perfect location. So much to do all around there easy to find a place to park. The loft itself is beautiful and open and airy with lots of sunlight. The bed was super comfortable and it had great amenities. The outdoor porch was a big plus. I would definitely stay here again. The host was also great. I got responses to my questions in a very timely fashion. Can’t wait to come back!

Our stay at the Beach Box location was very accessible to restaurants, stores, shopping centers, and the Seawall Beaches. It was spacious and clean. This location has stairs which gave us all a work-out in itself. The only issue we had was with the dryer. It was non-working the first 3 days, and we had to travel to do laundry. Once reported, the staff replaced it before we left. All and all, I would book here again.

Charming place!

This loft was so lovely! I picked this place specifically for the balcony. It had a cute porch swing which I definitely made use of since the weather was really nice. Really loved the sky light and all the natural light that floods this place. The bed was very big and comfortable! Everything looked up to date while maintaining the distressful look of the old historical building. We had a fun overnight trip. This place is walking distance from the strand and historical red light district. So there were lots of food options and places to shop. I would definitely come back!

The title says it all. This place is a gem with everything you could possibly need for a getaway on the island. Walking distance to the strand, close driving to the beach and the seawall. Easy check in, beautiful, clean unit and a private balcony.
