Pool was great for the kids but the scarcity of paper towels, trash bags and toilet paper aswell as no laundry detergent was disappointing for the cost.

Response from VrboOwner on 22 June 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that the pool was a hit with the kids and that your family was able to enjoy that amenity. Regarding the household supplies, we provide a complimentary starter supply of essentials such as 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom, one roll of paper towels, and a few trash bags to help guests settle in upon arrival. As is common with many vacation rentals, guests are responsible for purchasing any additional supplies needed during their stay. Laundry detergent and personal bath products are not listed among the amenities provided but we will discuss the possibility of providing these in the future We appreciate your comments and will continue looking for ways to better communicate what is included so guests can plan accordingly. Thank you for staying with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future.

Katie was very responsive and answered any questions that I had. We had a great time, house was very clean and comfortable. We paid the extra to have the pool heated and was worth it to us. I liked that they provided extras like enough trash bags, dish soap, sponge, coffee filters, paper towel, TP and even had salt and pepper. The location was just off US1 and we even spotted a manatee in the Chanel.I would not hesitate staying here again.

The layout was great and there was ample room. The home was very clean and parking was easy. The beds were comfortable. The location is great. The cost for pool heat was very expensive, and the place was short on some amenities we expected (towel racks, coffee filters, salt). The place is for sale and we are guessing the owner is not investing any more into the property. Overall we were satisfied.
