We snowbird for the month of January 2026 with 1 couple and had guest periodically stay for a long weekend or for a week Kitchen area and living room was large and there was plenty of space. We had two maintenance issues near the end of our stay, but Jeffry called her handyman and the issues were fixed promptly. Jeffry was great to work with and communication was easy.

This house is perfect for a large group! We have two families with grown children, and slept all 12 of us very comfortably. The kitchen has all of the necessities and Jeffry was very helpful with the extra things we needed. There are chairs and a wagon for the beach, which was also very helpful! This was our second stay at The Bird and we will be back!

We had a very nice week in Paradise! Our host was very communicative and I appreciated that they could be contacted at anytime for anything during our stay. The location is perfect, a short walk to the beach and ocean view. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals during the week and has two refrigerators, so we used one just for beverages, and the pool was so nice to have on some of the hot days and returning from the beach. It is a large home, with superior mattresses, and being only a family of four staying in the home, everyone had their own space to relax.

Best No Worry Stay Ever

The Bird was the best no worry vacay our famiy has ever had. The host, Jeffry, was also very kind and quick to respond to any question I had. The property was extensively stocked and even had pickle ball paddles for play, something my teens were super excited over. We will definitely consider this property for future family vacays.
