My family enjoyed our stay and made the best memories!!!! Peaceful stay but also very family friendly. The host quickly responded when I couldn’t find information on pass code for the pool. We would definitely consider booking again in the future!

Perfect location for families with kids!
We had a lovely stay! The beach is easy walking distance and the pool was perfect for the kids and very clean considering how many people were using it. I do wish there was a keypad on the back door closer to the parking lot but it wasn’t a big deal. Amenities were all in working order and the place was very clean. We would stay here again!

Great Family Spot
My wife, 2 daughters (2 and 7) and I had a wonderful time. The room had a separate room for the girls, 2 bathrooms and a living room with overlooking kitchen. Outside the room is a pool with a splash pad and Pirate ship playground. Beach is right around the corner you could walk to if you wanted but we drove to carry all our supplies. There is a place to rent Beach vehicles. Perfect spot for a young family. We even used the bbq section for burgers and dogs

Reviewer Comments:
We had a great time visiting this property, it was very clean and everything looked very new. We liked being able to see the pool outside the front door and window and how close it was to the beach. The pool in the facility did get hot from the sun around 2-4pm so it's better to swim earlier in the day. We will definitely be visiting again. As mentioned in another review the AC was cold when we got there, but we were able to adjust it and it was fine for our stay. Overall it was an excellent spot for family fun.

Overall, we had a great stay. The proximity of the property to the beach is excellent. A short walk or an even shorter drive. The location of this specific unit is right next to the pool and splash pad. It is a smaller, family friendly property. Most people we say we’re families with children, not a rambunctious crowd. Beds were comfortable and kitchen had ample supplies. Only complaint - the floors looked clean when we arrived, but it became apparent that they were clearly very dirty/not mopped. Our 10 month old’s hands and legs were black after just a few minutes of crawling around.

Reviewer Comments:
Everything was overall was great when we got inside. Plenty of kitchen dishes, etc to prepare your own food. Location is great- pool right outside and playground was so convenient especially with small kids. 30 second ride to the beach. The only critique I gave is that our unit wasn’t ready to check in until almost 5 even though they said check in was at 4, so we had to keep 3 young kids occupied for an hour. Also, the master bedroom was warmer than the rest of the house. However, we would stay at Smugglers Cove again!

Reviewer Comments:
Would definitely recommend this rental, especially if you have younger children. The pool and playground are great with easy access. The beach is very close, you could drive or walk. It is only about a block. We did both. There is a restaurant within walking distance. Only a short 3 to 4 minute drive to other restaurants and groceries. There are only 2 things I think this rental could improve on and that is putting a code lock on the back door and seating in the living room. Without a code lock on the back door as well as the front it was kind of inconvenient to have walk around to the front every time to get in, when parking is in the back. The wicker chairs in the living room are uncomfortable and with 8 people it doesn't give alot of options to sit and gather for dinner or a movie. But those things are minor and I would definitely stay there again!
