Absolutley awesome !! Has everything, romance, intrigue and great acting. Love Rob Lowe and Julia Ormand. The setting is beautiful and really brings me back to being young and enjoying summers at the beach. I watch this about 3-4x a year. So glad that put it for sale on DVD. I was waiting !! If you like great romance stories, this is a must have.......

I ordered this movie because I loved the book. So when saw they made a movie out of the book, I wanted to see it. This movie was nothing like the book. They took some parts of the book but totally changed it around. In the book, Nell is nine, in this movie, Nell is 16. Very disappointed.

I have always enjoyed watching Julia Ormond (maybe because my grandmother's parents were Ormonds, born in Sterling Castle), so when looking for films she was in I came across Beach Girls. The other reviews all made it sound so wonderful, so I purchased it. Much to my disappointment, the movie is more about the teenagers than Rob Lowe's and Julia Ormond's characters--indeed, I would consider their story line to be secondary to that of Chelsea Hobbs' character. But I will admit that when they are on screen I enjoyed their performances and story, and the photography is very good.

I missed the mini series when it was on Lifetime so I just recently got it on DVD and watched it. It was AWESOME!! I loved the characters and their stories. The ending was just wonderful.

I thought the acting was great,subtle, and the characters were believable. The scenery was lovely and knowing it was set locally was a bonus as well.

THis is a great story - I read the book and loved it as well. A great light summer movie. And the scenery is a paradise!!!! Very well written, great actors. Will watch this one again and again!

I've been waiting all winter for this DVD to come out. I LOVED the BEACH GIRLS MINI SERIES.

I was very happy with my purchase from Amazon. The product was great and the shipping was super fast. Nothing was damaged everything was packaged nicely. Overall great product!!

Pour a tall cool one, put up your feet and watch this delightful, moving saga set by the shoreline---Luanne Rice at her best authoring!

I enjoyed this mini-series. the disc quality was great even though it was used.
