David V. from Sturbridge, MA United States recommends this vacation rental.
The house was perfectly placed at the beach-we all loved the open concept and views from the main living room. House was clean and comfortable for my family of 6 and to have guests as well. There is adequate dishes and utensils. There were a few hiccups; luckily there was a door left unlocked, because we could not figure out the lock box and how to get into the home. We did run out of propane for the grill a few days into the vacation, with no replacement tank. We tried communicating with luxury beach, but got no response. Maybe there should be a “service” number to get an immediate response...I’m not sure what we would have done had there been some sort of emergency. Overall a great experience!

A guest from Westford, MA United States recommends this vacation rental.
We had an incredibly special time on our visit to Once Upon a Tide. There were 9 of us ranging from 2 to 92 (and a dog) and we all fit comfortably in the “unique” sleeping arrangements. It worked great! My 92 m-in-l could sit at the end of the deck under an umbrella and watch her children/grandchildren/great grandchildren play at the beach just below! The paddle board and kayaks were great fun, as well. Beautiful sunsets each night! Great communication with host, as well.

Our family enjoyed staying in this lovely waterfront beach house. The hosts provided great directions and easy access, and we had everything we needed there. There was plenty of room for us, a great kitchen and dining room for meals, lots of places to lounge and a big deck with plenty of chairs to enjoy the beach view. The beach was very private and quiet, and the location was great for exploring the nearby towns, wineries, etc. We would stay here again.

Jessica S. from Astoria, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
This house exceeded our expectations and allowed us to create memories we’ll never forget. The view is incredible and the house is very well laid out + fully stocked including outdoor toys. The host was communicative and checked in gently to make sure everything met our expectations upon arrival. The beach itself was filled with beautiful pebbles and shells - so be sure to bring water shoes or sandals for morning/evening walks.
Will absolutely be back!

My family stayed at Once Upon a Tide and had a wonderful time. The home is well-stocked and the rooms were very comfortable. The beach is gorgeous and equipped with a paddle board and kayaks. Best of all is the view from the living room and watching the sunsets from the deck. We did have an internet problem but Debbie resolved it quickly. A wonderful vacation!

Cheryl H. from Bethpage, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
We had a wonderful 5 night stay at Once Upon a Tide. We were a family of nine had plenty of space to sleep, ear, play games and hang out. We were lucky as the weather forecast was not good for our stay but we had sunny days and a little rain. We used the kayaks and paddle boards many times each day. We enjoyed the quiet beach and deck. The views from the house are beautiful. The sunsets were gorgeous and our last night there was a storm late at night with magnificent lightening over the water. We turned off alll the lights and watched it. The beds were comfortable and there was everything we needed to prepare meals in the kitchen. Spending time at this house makes me want a beach house of our own. We hope to return next year.

We had a great staying spite of hurricane Ian paying us a visit. Ginnie called and wanted her landscapers to come over for a cleanup after storm. Not necessary, everything was in perfect order.
House is in a great location and was immaculate. All you need is food to prepare in a fully stocked kitchen. Ginnie and Debbie are so helpful with any concerns. Favorite restaurants: Blue Water Fish and LA Plague.

The location of this beach rental is unbeatable. Seeing the water from every window of the living room was a treat, and being able to walk just a few steps down to the beach was convenient, especially with little ones. The bedroom layout downstairs is a bit quirky but the spacious living area was a wonderful gathering place for our family. Debbie, one of the managers, was great to work with -- quick to respond and address any issues, friendly and kind, and really fun to get to know. Our family all agreed this was our best beach rental yet, and we look forward to returning again.

From the moment we walked through the door the view was not to be believed. Everyone walked straight through the house and out the back door to the view of the Long Island sound. Then the quiet was exactly what I was looking for. The entire week we were outside or roaming the town. So much to do. The house was big enough to get lost in. Plenty of bedrooms.

I spent New Year’s Eve 2020/2021 here with a small group. It was an amazing time! The house was exactly as pictured, the dock is truly private and we had a ton of privacy. The owners quickly answered the phone when I had a question, and they left very helpful information on a bulletin board for us in the house.

James W. from Lake Havasu City, AZ. United States recommends this vacation rental.
Our families gathered for a week at this rental in Wading River and had a great time. This trip was the week before Christmas, so the normal summer beach activities weren’t experienced, but the beach and water atmosphere is why we choose this house and it delivered. Knowing it would be cold, our plans were to be able to gather around the fire place and enjoy the great views while watching movies at night and eating meals together. This house worked out perfectly. There was nine of us with plenty of room for sleeping, cooking meals, watching movies and just spending time together. The house is not some fancy modern place of today, but more of homey cabin feel, which was also expected and welcomed. The property management ladies were easy to work with while planning the reservation and always available for questions or help. We were able to enjoy a couple of very nice long walks along the beach. Everything was provided for our stay from linen to kitchen utensils. A few of the mattresses could use an updating, but overall, we were very happy with this property. We talked abut maybe returning one summer. Thanks

A guest from DEER PARK, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
The house was exactly as described, very clean and had everything we needed. The 2 level house has a very unique layout with an interesting history. The large master bedroom is upstairs on the same level as the kitchen, the living area and the wall of windows providing gorgeous views. There are three additional bedrooms and two bathrooms downstairs. The kitchen was fully stocked and the furniture, including the beds, were comfortable. There was plenty of room for everyone to be together but also plenty of places for alone time, too. Steps off the large deck lead directly to the beach which is great for walking and finding beautiful shells, uniquely colored rocks and other beachy treasures. The sunsets should not be missed. The marsh across the street is home to an amazing variety of birds. The property managers are very responsive even with minor questions and aim to make sure you have a wonderful stay.

Lee B. from Lake Ronkonkoma, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
Once Upon a Tide is most definitely a true beach house. High tide was literally 20 feet from the deck. We had booked a different property from Debbie and Virginia which doesn't have heat. That normally wouldn't have been a problem but the forecast for our stay was calling for 30 degree nights which was unusual for the time of year. The ladies contacted us and upgraded us to a beautiful 4 bedroom house for the same price. The view was amazing! They weren't kidding when they said that all you'd need was food and clothes. The kitchen was well stocked for all your cooking needs. The house was clean and the master bed was a new looking Tempurpedic......very comfortable. They even offered to extend our stay for a reduced rate but we declined because I had to return to work the following day. All said, our stay was a blast and you won't regret your stay at one of Virginia and Debbie's properties. Enjoy!

This is my 5th year staying at one of the properties of Luxury Beach Getaway. I stayed in 3 different houses, each one offers something special. This house has historical significance. It’s a round house that was once a Buckminster Fuller Geodesic dome. Now it is an updated round house with panoramic views. Lots of rooms, and as usual peaceful and relaxing. There are so many wonderful things to do. Ginny and Deb accommodate your needs and are the best.

Between myself, and family we have rented a total of 7 homes over 4 years from Debbie and Virginia and they have all been fantastic and this year was no exception. The ladies are always easy to talk to and deal with and are quick to respond to anything you need.
This was our first year in this particular home and it is a great space. The building has a unique shape and history which makes for fun nooks and rooms throughout. There is space for your group to gather together and plenty of space to have time alone, or in smaller groups. The extensive decking opens out to a wonderful stretch of rocky beach that is never crowded. I think we saw a grand total of 5 people on the beach in 7 days.
I don't hesitate to recommend both this house and Debbie and Virginia!

It took us a while to find the 4th bedroom. The kitchen had more cabinets, cookware and service utensils than I ever experienced. The beach is very rocky so water sandels are a real plus. There is plenty of space to hang out in, enjoy friends and cook great meals. The SHop and Stop nearby was fantastic with a very large selection of organic produce and a good seafood and bakery department. The house was very clean, everything worked great including the dishwasher, washing machines, TV and BBQ. This place is great for a large family or a close group of friends. It was a terrific rental and we enjoyed our stay very much
