The property was amazing. Loved the house and pool. The house smelled like smoke when we got there and that remained the entire trip. Otherwise, no complaints.

Great stay!

Just what we expected and more! Check in couldn’t have been easier! Office staff was quick to reply to my questions via text during my stay. Location was perfect - a short walk to the beach and private pool made for fun all day every day! The fully equipped kitchen was great for our big family. We truly enjoyed making some great memories at this beautiful home! Thank you!
