The house was beautiful and the pool wonderful! So much space for my family. Is in a great location. We had a couple things pop up but they sent maintenance out right away to fix. Maintenance was really nice. No complaints. Would definitely rent this house again.

Check in was easy. Location was great. Away from the craziness of the hotel area, the beach was a quick 2 minute drive, and shopping and restaurants were just ten minutes away. There was plenty of room for us all to be comfortable.

Overall, the visit was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed the location and the pool, and there was ample space to accommodate our entire group comfortably. The only minor issue we encountered was that in one of the rooms, the light and ceiling fan could not be operated independently.

A nice quiet area and the property was nicely kept. You do need a car to get anywhere like the beach or stores, but in return, the area is very peaceful.

My group of 12 stayed here before embarking on a cruise. It was a nice location being close to the beach and a 20 minute drive to the cruise terminal. The house fit us all comfortably and the kids enjoyed the game room. We would definitely rent this home again.

We found chips in two beds that weren’t ours. Spider webs everywhere. Walls were dirty. Pool wasn’t working properly. Flooring was tacked down with nails. No garbage cans in all bathrooms. Dead bugs on the floor.
