Our family loved staying at Dog Days of Summer. From the minute we walked in, our kids had an amazing time — exploring the house and playing in the pool. The house was comfortable, clean, and well laid out. AND it had everything we needed. The cart is an added bonus and we were so grateful to have it. Our family will definitely be back.

We had a wonderful stay with 2 other families here. The location was perfect! Quick golf cart ride to the beach, dining and grocery mart. I loved that this rental included the 6 seater golf cart for us to use! The pool was fantastic for our group of kids to cool off while we grilled dinner. The 4th floor rooftop deck was amazing in the evenings with a nice breeze, great views and perfect for a glass of wine to wind down. The host was so easy to get in touch with. This was a great stay, fantastic location and we would come back!

Beautiful house super close to many restaurants! Most times we just walked over to get breakfast and dinner nearby. Had a blast hanging out in the pool and outdoor areas. We felt at home straight away and it was nice to have a golf cart to zip around. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed! Also the games upstairs were pretty fun to play with. It was a hit for the whole family. Would definitely stay here again!

We had a wonderful time in Port A at this house. Everything was very clean and the house had plenty of space for our group (6 adults and 4 kids). The beds were all very comfy and having a private pool was great. There are restaurants within walking distance and the communication with the property manager was great. The layout of the house works very well for multiple family groups to have their own space. The kitchen was well stocked and the living room couch was massive and the rooftop patio was so fun to hang out on. We will definitely be back!

We had a great time! The house was so amazing and in a great location! We were able to enjoy time together as a family and then spread out to relax in private. The pool was fantastic and we really enjoyed using the golf cart — it was so convenient. Our host was so easy to work with and very responsive to our questions. We will definitely be back!!

This place puts dogs first — really made our dog feel at home. Tim was very responsive and got everything sorted quickly. Can easily fit 10 people very comfortably. The location is amazing on the north of the island, really close to everything you need. Overall would definitely recommend!
