Perfect location
This property was a short walk to the beach.It had all the amenities that we wanted and needed. The view from the back porch is beautiful. We enjoyed reading and drinking our morning coffee out there. Guests should be aware that the main living area is on the second floor with a lot of stairs to climb. Other than that, this house is perfect for our group of 10.

Another great stay at Far Niente!
Great location and the home is very spacious. It accommodated our large group nicely! Would definitely stay there again and would recommend for large family. Our only issue was with Watercolor and having to go down to the beach early each morning to rent beach set ups-hoping this process improves as it is a 5 star resort!

Perfect location
The house is located in a perfect location. We had a few minute bike or golf cart ride to the beach club or could walk it in less than 10 minutes. Loved having the natural area out out back door. Plenty of room for everyone with wonderful porch areas. The communication with the management company was quick and easy. We will definitely be returning.
