Thank you for your review! We’re glad to hear you found the bed very nice and comfortable. A good night’s sleep makes all the difference! We’d love to host you again soon. -Life in Paradise Team
Everything was great, but the AC units were rough. It was a bit cramped with a pack n play for the baby, but otherwise the space is used well and it was a very nice stay!
Property is nice and welcoming, updated interior and smells like a new home. If staying in warmer months bring a fan for air circulation, there was an issue with the AC system but property management was very prompt in sending someone out. If noise sensitive, bring a sound machine as the homes are right off the main roadway in town. For clarification the queen size bed is the pullout and the master suite bed is a full. Overall enjoyed our stay and will consider using this property again in the future! Great for a couples getaway.
