We love the Orchid Beach House! The house is immaculate and the location can't be beat. You are really close to the beach and even during spring break time it wasn't too crowded.There is a terrific dog beach within walking distance and the boardwalk is also within walking dist. if you are able to walk 10+ blocks.There is not a yard at the house, but it is very private and has a nice covered back porch. If you have pets there is a grassy area on the next block that worked perfectly to allow them to do their "business." There is a really great restaurant (Tiki Tiki) within walking dist. and tons more near the boardwalk. The master bed was very comfortable and my daughter said the murphy bed was fine as well. The pictures are very accurate of the house.There are a lot of rules for the house, but those are to keep it as exceptional as it is, so we understood - you just have to be respectful! Nicholette is very responsive and we would definitely stay again if we return to the area!
