Fantastic Stay!

Loved this property. Rented Wednesday-Monday. We were in town for my sister-in-law’s beach wedding that occurred on Saturday. My mother and father in law and other sister in law along with her husband and two teens stayed with my husband and I. Perfect amount of space for all of us. The location was amazing! Quick walk across the street to the beach, walking distance to several restaurants and easy drive for groceries. Highly recommend this rental property.

Lovely week at the Flip Flop Inn!

Our family had so much fun staying in this sweet house that is a VERY short walk to one of our favorite beaches. It’s exactly as described and as it appears in the pictures—super cute and comfy. We had plenty of room to spread out and to enjoy some family time together. Communication with management was phenomenal. Quick, friendly responses to all our questions. Highly recommend!

This was the perfect location for our needs. We had three families which allowed each family their own bedroom and bathroom. It was nice, cleaned and ready for us to enjoy. The beach was across the street which is great as you don't have to worry about parking. Would recommend and we're already talking about coming back.

Nice place

This was a nice house. Kitchen was well stocked. Comfy beds. The neighborhood felt safe. The house had a great layout. Only negative I can have, was the tree in the upstairs bedroom scrapes the window and the kids had trouble sleeping because of the noise. Overall, we had a nice time. Thank you.
