I can't say enough good things about this rental and Kathryn with FLAPPM! The owners have really created a little private slice of paradise at Sunnyside Surf Shack.
Firstly, the whole rental process was easy and Kathryn was probably the most responsive manager I've ever worked with (and I am a worrywart, so I probably drove her crazy).
The pool was so clean, the water felt like silk on our skin. The pool folks did come a few times in the 2 weeks we were there, but they were in and out, quiet and very polite. It was no inconvenience at all.
The main house is so cute! The best dining set up we've seen in a rental with the wall bench and a table big enough for all 6 of us to eat at. The sofas were very comfortable and FINALLY a living room with enough places for more than 2 or 3 people to sit. The kitchen is very well stocked.
The bunkhouse is so cute! So much room, and whatever the AC was set on was perfect because it felt great in there.
Our favorite thing about the whole place, aside of the pool, was the outdoor seating area. We loved the daybed! It's such a perfect set up and so much room for a group.
The whole area was quiet and a lot slower than down the road. I walked 3 miles every morning right before the sun came up and it was so peaceful! It's a great area to walk or job or ride a bike.
The entire property was so clean, and pretty much everything you need is there, even some spare beach towels!
It took us less than 3 minutes to walk to the beach hauling our stuff, but we did rent the golf cart too for those in the group that didn't want to walk in that heat. (Couldn't fit our whole group and our gear on the 6 seater golf cart, but that thing was very nice to have!)
I believe in full honesty on the reviews so I just want to add that if you have someone with bad knees or struggles with steps, there are steps at the front and back doors of the main house, and up to the pool. Also, the closest beach access has 2 flights of stairs plus a few steps. There's are close accesses without the steps, though! And no steps going from the driveway through the back gate into the bunkhouse, so there's options!
I highly recommend this property if you are looking for a quiet, private vacation spot on the west end of PCB.
