Dear Trevor & Sarah,

 

Thank you for making Kokonut Hut available to us! What a blessing!! We have had wonderful times as a family finding shells in the early morning, swimming and building sand castles in the day, grilling steaks eating shrimp at evening sleeping peacefully at night.

 

Refreshing, healing, strengthing, relaxing, relationship building, peaceful, happy, fun... describe our time!

 

The timing could not have been better. We needed this God provided! Thank you again.....so much!

 

Blessings, The Buckners

We really enjoyed our time at your beach house. A great time was had by all! No one wants to go home. I'll call you back for next year's family & friends vacation.

Staying at the Kokonut Hut has been a wonderful experience.

We are glad you gave 9 high school graduates a chance (unlike everyone else). I just waant you to know we slept soundly until the middle of the day EVERYDAY. We then would eat lunch and swim in the nery nice pool. I love the pool. It is quite nice.

One day we even caught 5 jellyfish, with our hands. They were outside a few days so I hope nothing smells too bad. We celebrated the name Kokonut Hut by wearing coconut bras around....even the boys. We eventually released the jelly fish at 2:45 am. We probably spent more time playing PS2 than actually at the beach.

But when we were at the beach it was glorious because we scootered there. If you didn't know, The shower has a very loud squeeking sound when its on. You get used to it, its loud.

 

Thank you for letting us stay!

Brittany, Nicky, Jessa, Courtney, Emily, Brianna, Michelle, Ben Jason P.S. Thank you for not evicting us after 2 hours of being here. The fence is kind of close to the drive way.

Thanks for waiting 3 extra hours while we were lost.

I hope the neighbors couldn't hear us on karaoke night.

Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks!

Thank you! This was very good! We loved it here Very peaceful. The owners are great! If you have kids, get the golf cart, it will help! It was very peaceful here. Beware of the jellyfish! Ice works well! Trash is Tuesdays and Fridays. If you miss Tuesdays, you can talk the trash guy into taking it on Friday. We had 10 people staying here and everything was wonderful. Good luck to you always! Love, Kelli, Lynn, Jenn, Carl, Collin, Alexandra, Andy, Victoria, Lucas, Justin

Thank you so much for letting us stay here at the Kokonut Hut. It was relaxing and peaceful. The pool was cool and the house was cool. We went to the beach every day. While we were at the beach we found lots of blue jellyfishthat could really hurt you. Wee also found crabs. We will look forward to seeing you again.

Our trip was wonderful but we did have a few suggestions - The furnace closet needs a lock to keep young ones out. There really needs to be a smoke detector in the In-laws suite!! Also, we couldn't find the light for the back porch. Other than that this was our best family vacation. Thanks, so much!

 

***** Smoke detector added!!!! Also added an uplight to the back porch. Thanks for the suggestions! -Trevor*****

The Kokonut Hut was like totally radical dudes. This sweet chik-o stick huttle was the flyest crib ever! It was better than a fry skillet bacon strip side order of wedding cake on a platter with icing and flower candy! But I wish it came with a pool boy...*,wink*~(Jamies idea)

 

Suggestions:

1) Move the TV further away from the front door.

2) Need a bigger fancier sign to make it look awsome for 1st impressions.

3) You should get a tank in here so you/the guests can keep hermit crabs/ fish.

Other than that, everything was really great!:)

***** Lights in the trees does sound like it would be nice...I'll think about that one! Also, the outdoor ceiling fan for the back screened porch is another good one, suggested by others as well. Perhaps when the reservations slow down, I'll install that fan. Great suggestion!! -Trevor *****

Thank you for a wonderful stay. The house was perfect for 2 families. The guest house made a perfect space, so as not to rattle each others nerves. Loved the pool. We enjoyed perfect weather weatherfor the entire week. This was a trip to remember and a perfect "last summer fling". We are all so sad its over. Thank you so much to Sarah and Trevor for making this a stress free vacation! I wish we had 7 more days. But alas we must get back to reality!

Best wishes! We hope to see you next summer - The Hurst Family

 8/18 - 8/25

Thank you we had an awsome time.

The weather was awsome (but very hot!) We went to the beach almost every day, and the pool every day The snorkeling was great (except there was alot of jellyfish)! The house is great, but here are some suggestions to make it better.

Suggestions:

1. A light in the living room.

2. A fan in the bunkbed room

3. Trim the bushes to get the car in easier

4. the showers are loud

But over alleverything was great! THANKS! -Brianna/the Parker Family Pearland, TX

 

*****Thanks Brianna for your feedback! I'll have to label all those light switches and dimmers in the living room. As a matter of fact I bet guests would find it helpfull for the switches to be labeled in all of our homes. Thanks! Bunk room fan is in closet. We removed ceiling fan because, well, bunk beds and ceiling fans are a bad match! Also, thanks for reminding me about the loud shower! We replaced the shower heads with nice new ones. Problem solved!

Sept 3 - Sept 10

 

 We all loved the house. Even more than we expected. Thanks you for having us. We will come back any time. We do have a few suggestions: 1. A light out back

                  2. Xtra light bulbs in the house

                  3. high chair for kids

-Schulte Family St. Louis, MO

 

***** We got that light out back! Thanks! -Trevor****

 

December 22 - 29th 2007

 

      We all had a really great time. The weather was really chilly when we arrived but warmed up a little toward the end of our stay. This was our first Christmas away from home, and we will all remember what a great time we had. My younger brother got engaged to his girlfriend on the beach Christmas Day as the sun was setting. (How romantic!!) We are excited to have her join our crazy bunch. Can'y wait to come back in July. Thanks again.

                                          March 1 - 8, 2008

We enjoyed our time in the Kokonut Hut! Everything - from the reservation process, to check - in, to the accomodations - was great. We enjoyed the heated pool, the cozy accomodations, and the golf cart.

Our only suggestions would be:

- bath mats, and

- alarm clocks in every room.

 

Thanks again.
