Alpha at the Point more than met our expectations. The location felt like we were alone on the point, the views were spectacular! The decor and space within were exceptional, especially the living room. On the rainy days, we were able to enjoy the deck because there were so many areas out of the wind and rain. Really an amazing place!

I cannot say enough good things about this home! It was truly perfect for our large family and the most well- appointed we have ever stayed in! The host provided every single thing we needed and wanted— and more. The view is breathtaking and the amenities were incredible!! The host was very responsive and helpful at every turn. We definitely hope to return one day! Truly lovely.

This house is something special, even compared to the top end properties it competes with. Unlike many ocean front houses "Alpha" is very private and has 300 degree views of the ocean from inside with unimpeded sight lines. The kitchen has at least one of everything, and often two, like dishwashers, refrigerators, stove tops, etc. etc. This house is unusual in being all on one floor, so no steps once you enter. We ate some meals on the very large ocean front porch and some in a beautiful dining room. And the media room is the best we have seen with a huge screen and automatic lounges! Bask Away took immediate care of any request and was really helpful when we were brushed by a hurricane. From the pool, walk on a short private path to the beach where often you are alone, except for a few fisherman. For the beach vacation of your dreams, try this one!
